East West Training Stables

04/09/2026

The third piece in my series on changing how I think about horses, training, and what it actually means to succeed. This one is about what the middle looks like now — competing at Kentucky on a horse I refuse to sacrifice for a score, the riders who’ve found their way to us, and what my mom’s story about a Japanese garden has to do with all of it. If you’ve ever felt the pull between what you’ve been taught and what your instincts are telling you, this one’s for you. https://substack.com//note/p-193680295?r=3c6scx&utm_medium=ios&utm_source=notes-share-action

Something new is live.
I’ve been thinking for a long time about what I actually want to say — about horses, about competition, about the Eastern philosophies that changed how I work, about the gap between the sport we show the world and the sport we know from the inside.
East West Eventing is where I’m going to say it.
Essays on horsemanship, ethics, leadership, and what a martial arts practice taught me about working with horses and people. For riders and non-riders alike.

“When we all get to heaven” Is the podcast that’s been keeping my amazing sister Krissy busy for the last year ++ since she finished up at The Uncertain Hour.
As always, I am in awe of her skills as a story teller and producer.
As a Bay Area native and child of the 80’s and 90’s living in the periphery of the AIDS epidemic in San Francisco, this podcast is a gripping dive in to that history, and an incredible story of a place where people who had been cast out could belong, remember, and find community. Faith doesn’t belong to one “type” of group, or a select few… Faith belongs to those who love, support, and welcome 🏳️‍🌈💕 https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/slate-daily-feed/id75089978?i=1000731956556
