How is it October already?
For some of us, October means the end of show season. For others, it means it is time for the big year end champ shows. For some October is cooler, nicer riding weather, and the perfect time to enjoy spending time with your horse. For others, we are feeling the chill of fall and impending winter, so we are scrambling to get in rides on our horses before snow arrives.

Horsemanship Journeys can be a rough ride! There will be challenges and obstacles, especially if you chose to compete with your horse. Winning with your horse requires more than just horsemanship skills and talent. To be able to thrive along this journey, you need a Cowgirl Mindset.
Self-care has been a buzzword for awhile. If you've been introduced to this concept, you've probably also heard about taking time to do activities that "refill your cup."
“Oh Chevy, you don’t understand. Your husband is a horseman. He gets the horse thing, and supports your riding.”
This comment from a client recently had my head spinning. Mostly because she was right. I do have trouble relating to partners that don’t “get” the horse thing. My husband rides, and he is pretty punchy. He likes his horses hot, and he likes to ride fast. Confidence is not an issue for him! He understands the amount of time, blood, sweat, tears, and $$ it takes to make a good, safe horse. While he doesn’t show, he understands it and gets that it is important to me.
