My expertise lies in guiding riders to navigate the challenges and setbacks unique to equestrianism to transform their mindset, rediscover their motivation to go to the next level with their horses.
My own journey with horses started, like many, at the local riding school. I was from a distinctly non-horsey family but somewhere it was in my blood. I have many happy memories and of course, many tumbles. Managing to pull a horse up while hanging out the side door after being unseated at a jump is one. ‘Mum’s watching and she’ll never let me ride again if I fall off’ was my overriding motivation for pulling this horse up and then performing a graceless dismount once he was standing.
At 18 I got my first horse, a Crabbet Arab filly.
Of course one horse led to two, I started breeding and then racing under Jockey Club rules in the 1990’s, holding an Owner’s and Amateur Trainer’s Licence. I was placed on a number of occasions in good company.
Today my daughter has the last foal I bred, now 17 and I have a gorgeous Arab gelding bred by the Shadwell estate. El for short.
Horses have always been a profound passion in my life, I have bred, raced and been placed amongst professional owners and trainers. The horses' well-being has been my top priority, and they've been a source of inspiration to transcend my limitations. Through my journey with them, I've experienced a cascade of personal development rewards that have enriched every facet of my life.
My vision is to empower equestrians to thrive beyond their limitations, embrace new possibilities, reconnect with their inner strength and embody their identity.
