Most women who struggle with binge eating never talk about it. I'm changing that today. In this episode, I get personal about my own journey with binge eating, tracing it back to my early twenties and walking through the slow, nonlinear process of working through it over the past decade. This is not a quick fix episode. There is no finish line moment, no single breakthrough that made it all click. What there is, is an honest look at what actually moved the needle over time. I break down the three things that made the biggest difference in my healing: releasing the good food and bad food rules that were quietly running the show, going through a functional reverse diet to address what was happening on a physiological level, and reframing the stories I was telling myself after a binge episode. I also dig into something that does not get talked about enough, which is how your body's overall toxic load and sensitivity to certain foods can actually reinforce disordered eating patterns without you even realizing it. If you have ever felt completely out of control around food, finished a vacation feeling more guilt than joy, or wondered if you will ever stop the restrict and binge cycle, this episode is for you. You are not broken, and you are not alone.

Il y a des rendez-vous qui dépassent le sport.Des échéances qui concentrent des années de travail, de sacrifices, de remises en question, d'espoirs silencieux et de rêves immenses.Les Championnats du monde font partie de ceux-là.Du 11 au 23 août, les meilleurs chevaux, cavaliers, voltigeurs et meneurs de la planète se retrouveront à Aix-la-Chapelle, lieu mythique des sports équestres, pour défendre les couleurs de leur nation. Puis le 28 novembre, c'est à Al Ula en Arabie Saoudite, que les Bleus de l'endurance tenteront de décrocher un nouveau titre mondial. Cette année, avec la Fédération Française d'Équitation, nous avons eu envie de vous emmener là où tout commence vraiment : dans les coulisses de la préparation au très haut niveau.Bienvenue dans Entre Cavaliers, une série portée par les cavaliers et staffs de l'équipe de France.Ces 10 épisodes ont été imaginés par I am an Equestrian et la FFE pour entrer au cœur de l'équipe de France d'équitation, comprendre ce qui se joue avant une grande échéance, et découvrir ce que le haut niveau exige réellement des femmes, des hommes… et des chevaux.Pendant plusieurs semaines, nous allons partir à la rencontre des grandes disciplines qui font vibrer notre sport — le saut d'obstacles, le concours complet, le dressage — mais aussi ouvrir les portes de disciplines plus confidentielles, moins médiatisées, et pourtant absolument fascinantes : le para-dressage, la voltige, l'attelage, l'endurance.On parlera de relation avec les chevaux, de bien-être animal, de préparation mentale, de méthodes d'entraînement, de collectif, de confiance, de résilience, de performance.On parlera aussi d'émotions. Parce qu'avant les médailles, avant les hymnes, avant les podiums… il y a des histoires humaines. Des histoires de passion, d'engagement total et de quête d'excellence.Pour nous, cette série représente énormément.Parce qu'elle nous permet de raconter ce sport autrement. Plus en profondeur grâce à la générosité et l'accessibilité de nos plus grands champions. Et parce que collaborer avec la Fédération Française d'Équitation autour d'un projet comme celui-ci est une immense fierté.On entend souvent ce dicton “il faut tout un village pour élever un enfant”, mais pour élever un cheval, pour le faire naître, pour lui garantir des bases solides, pour guider, accompagner son évolution, ne faut-il pas tout un village ? Dans cet épisode de Entre Cavaliers, enregistré en partenariat avec la Fédération Française d'Équitation, on a eu envie de visiter les coulisses, de s'immiscer derrière le rideau, là où tout commence. On voudrait vous raconter l'histoire non pas d'un cavalier, mais cette fois d'un cheval, un cheval qui peut-être participera aux Championnats du Monde, dont on connaît le nom, le palmarès, la force. Floyd des Prés. Et pour livrer le récit le plus complet, il nous faut rencontrer tous ceux qui ont participé à lui dessiner cette voie royale, celle de champion.I am an Equestrian est le premier podcast pour les passionnés d'équitation et de sports équestres.

What if burning more calories had less to do with punishing workouts and more to do with how you live your everyday life? In this episode, we're breaking down 10 low-effort ways to support your metabolism without adding hours of cardio or exhausting yourself in the gym. Because the truth is, your metabolism is running 24/7 and small habits repeated consistently can have a much bigger impact than most people realize. We start with five hobbies that naturally increase calorie burn and improve metabolic health, including hiking, swimming, cycling, dancing, and even hobbies like knitting that help regulate stress and reduce mindless snacking. You'll learn why activities that support cortisol regulation, muscle activation, and nervous system balance can quietly improve fat loss and energy levels behind the scenes. Then we shift into five simple lifestyle strategies that can significantly change the way your body uses energy throughout the day. From walking after meals and increasing NEAT (non-exercise activity thermogenesis) to prioritizing sleep, hydration, and even small micro-movements, this episode explains how metabolism is influenced by far more than workouts alone. We also break down the science in a way that actually makes sense covering blood sugar regulation, insulin, cortisol, thermogenesis, and why sleep may be one of the most underrated fat-loss tools available. Most importantly, this conversation reframes the idea that improving your metabolism has to mean doing more. Sometimes it's about working with your body instead of constantly fighting it. If you've been feeling overwhelmed by all-or-nothing fitness advice, this episode will help you see that sustainable progress often comes from the simplest shifts. Your metabolism doesn't just respond to exercise. It responds to your environment, your habits, your stress levels, and the way you move through everyday life.

What does “research -backed” actually mean in the horse industry and how much of what we hear is really science versus really good marketing? On this episode of Beyond the Barn, host Katy Starr chats with Dr. Brian Nielsen, professor of equine exercise physiology at Michigan State University, and Dr. Kelly Vineyard, PhD equine nutritionist to discuss scientific literacy and how to tell if something is truly backed by good research or when it just sounds convincing, including: Why some of the most believable horse product claims may not actually prove anything Red flags that make researchers immediately skeptical What horse owners should look for before spending money on feed products or supplements Plus, Dr. Nielsen shares hilarious stories from the racehorse world, the truth about placebo affects in horses and humans, and one “treatment” he swears has helped horses win races for years! By the end of this episode, you may never look at the phrase “research-backed” the same way again.
In this deeply personal episode, I'm sharing the full arc of my health journey, from my days as a Division I equestrian athlete at UGA to the years of frustration, confusion, and rock bottom moments that ultimately led me to functional health. I open up about how the pressure to maintain a certain body composition as a college athlete first pushed me toward disordered eating habits, setting the stage for years of weight loss resistance. After graduating and moving to Atlanta, I threw myself into CrossFit, convinced that more intensity was the answer, only to find myself getting puffier, more inflamed, and increasingly exhausted. Despite working out harder than ever, I wasn't seeing results, and my body was sending signals I didn't yet know how to read. Chronic digestive issues, debilitating fatigue, brain fog, and social anxiety began compounding on top of each other, leaving me feeling like I might be making it all up. A series of dismissive doctor's appointments left me feeling invalidated and completely stuck, including one where I was simply told to eat less and exercise more. Coming off birth control without proper hormonal support triggered a new wave of symptoms, including severe acne and irregular cycles, adding yet another layer to an already overwhelming season. I describe the emotional toll of watching life move forward, friends getting married and starting families, while I felt too depleted and self-conscious to fully show up. It wasn't until I discovered functional health and began running comprehensive labs that I finally got the validation I had been desperate for. Something was genuinely wrong, and it wasn't in my head. I then invested deeply, financially and personally, in learning everything I could about the connection between hormones, gut health, metabolism, and the immune system. That journey ultimately led to a 40-pound transformation, not through restriction and overtraining, but by working out less, eating more, and addressing the true root causes. Those hard-won lessons became the foundation for the one-stop functional health program I built for my clients. Now pregnant with my daughter, I reflect on how healing my own body is something I'll be able to pass on in ways I never imagined. If any part of my story sounds familiar, I want you to know: you are not alone, and there is a path to the other side.

Aujourd'hui, nous vous proposons un nouvel épisode hors-série de I am an Equestrian autour d'un sujet aussi vaste qu'essentiel : celui de la formation des professionnels du cheval.Comment forme-t-on aujourd'hui les enseignants, cavaliers, responsables d'écuries et acteurs de la filière équine ?Et surtout, comment cette formation doit-elle évoluer dans un monde où les attentes sociétales, environnementales et éthiques autour du bien-être animal prennent une place de plus en plus importante ?Parce qu'aujourd'hui, le débat ne se limite plus uniquement aux besoins fondamentaux du cheval — les fameux “3F” : friends, freedom and forage.Il nous pousse aussi à réfléchir à la place du cheval dans le travail avec l'Homme, à notre manière d'apprendre, de transmettre, d'enseigner et d'évoluer ensemble.Cet épisode nous a été proposé par UniLaSalle, un institut polytechnique engagé au cœur des enjeux de transition, qui rassemble aujourd'hui plusieurs domaines d'expertise : agronomie, environnement, alimentation et santé, numérique, énergie, géologie… mais aussi médecine vétérinaire et filière équine.Avec ses 4 campus, ses 4000 étudiants et ses nombreuses formations spécialisées, UniLaSalle s'impose comme une nouvelle génération de grande école tournée vers les grands défis du vivant.Depuis 2024, le campus de Rouen propose notamment le Mastère Spécialisé® Sciences et Management de la Filière Équine, pensé pour former les futurs managers et décideurs de la filière. Et dès 2027, UniLaSalle ouvrira une formation professionnelle inédite dédiée à l'éthique des pratiques équines, pour accompagner les profondes mutations que connaît aujourd'hui notre secteur.Pour nourrir cette réflexion, nous avons réuni autour de cette table plusieurs intervenantes aux regards très différents — et profondément complémentaires.Nous accueillons d'abord Charlène Lourd, Chargée de mission en ingénierie de la formation à UniLaSalle, à l'initiative de cette discussion autour de l'évolution des pratiques pédagogiques et professionnelles dans la filière équine.À ses côtés, Sophie Barreau, de l'École Blondeau, nous apportera son regard sur la transmission du savoir équestre, la notion de travail pour le cheval, et ce que la relation homme-cheval peut produire lorsqu'elle est pensée comme une démarche réellement partagée.Nous recevons également Céline Magaud Druon, formatrice expérimentée et responsable communication et relations internationales à la MFR de Fonteveille, qui partagera son expérience auprès des jeunes en formation initiale et son regard sur les évolutions du terrain depuis plus de vingt ans.Enfin, Lucie Le Corre, fondatrice d'Equimova, nous parlera des nouvelles approches de formation autour d'une équitation plus juste, plus consciente, plus respectueuse du fonctionnement du cheval.Ensemble, nous allons essayer de comprendre ce que signifie réellement “former” dans le monde du cheval aujourd'hui.Former techniquement, évidemment. Mais aussi former des regards, des sensibilités, des responsabilités.Bienvenue dans ce nouvel épisode hors-série de I am an Equestrian.I am an Equestrian est le premier podcast pour les passionnés d'équitation et de sports équestres.

Puis le 28 novembre, c'est à Al Ula en Arabie Saoudite, que les Bleus de l'endurance tenteront de décrocher un nouveau titre mondial. Cette année, avec la Fédération Française d'Équitation, nous avons eu envie de vous emmener là où tout commence vraiment : dans les coulisses de la préparation au très haut niveau.Bienvenue dans Entre Cavaliers, une série portée par les cavaliers et staffs de l'équipe de France.Ces 10 épisodes ont été imaginés par I am an Equestrian et la FFE pour entrer au cœur de l'équipe de France d'équitation, comprendre ce qui se joue avant une grande échéance, et découvrir ce que le haut niveau exige réellement des femmes, des hommes… et des chevaux.Pendant plusieurs semaines, nous allons partir à la rencontre des grandes disciplines qui font vibrer notre sport — le saut d'obstacles, le concours complet, le dressage — mais aussi ouvrir les portes de disciplines plus confidentielles, moins médiatisées, et pourtant absolument fascinantes : le para-dressage, la voltige, l'attelage, l'endurance.On parlera de relation avec les chevaux, de bien-être animal, de préparation mentale, de méthodes d'entraînement, de collectif, de confiance, de résilience, de performance.On parlera aussi d'émotions. Parce qu'avant les médailles, avant les hymnes, avant les podiums… il y a des histoires humaines. Des histoires de passion, d'engagement total et de quête d'excellence.Pour nous, cette série représente énormément.Parce qu'elle nous permet de raconter ce sport autrement. Plus en profondeur grâce à la générosité et l'accessibilité de nos plus grands champions. Et parce que collaborer avec la Fédération Française d'Équitation autour d'un projet comme celui-ci est une immense fierté.La différence entre un grand champion et les autres ne se joue pas toujours sur la technique. Souvent, elle se joue dans la tête, dans la capacité à gérer la pression, à faire taire le doute, à continuer d'avancer quand l'enjeu devient immense. Et dans les sports équestres, cette pression a quelque chose de particulier : elle se partage avec un cheval, qui ressent lui aussi nos émotions, nos tensions, nos hésitations.Dans cet épisode de Entre Cavaliers, nous avons voulu parler de préparation mentale. Mais pas uniquement comme un outil réservé au très haut niveau. Nous avons voulu comprendre comment elle peut aider tous les cavaliers… et même, plus largement, chacun d'entre nous dans son quotidien.Pour cela, nous avons réuni deux regards passionnants. Celui de Vladimir Vinchon, cavalier de l'équipe de France de para-dressage, qui revient notamment sur son expérience des Jeux Olympiques et Paralympiques de Paris 2024 et sur l'impact concret qu'a eu la préparation mentale dans sa carrière et dans sa gestion des grandes échéances. Et celui de Flore Tairraz, spécialiste de la préparation mentale, qui nous partage ses expériences et ses connaissances sur ce sujet passionnant.I am an Equestrian est le premier podcast pour les passionnés d'équitation et de sports équestres.

Il regarde la présence, l'intention, la connexion. Et peut-être est-ce pour cela que le para-dressage est une discipline si bouleversante.Dans cet épisode de Entre Cavaliers, réalisé avec la Fédération Française d'Équitation à l'approche des Championnats du monde d'Aix-la-Chapelle 2026, nous avons voulu raconter une autre facette du très haut niveau.Une facette profondément humaine, où le cheval devient bien plus qu'un partenaire de sport : un soutien, un moteur, parfois même un thérapeute silencieux.On parle ici de confiance en soi, de reconstruction, de regard des autres, de puissance retrouvée.On parle aussi du rôle grandissant du cheval comme médiateur, dans l'accompagnement humain, de sa capacité unique à créer du lien et à réparer parfois ce que les mots ne savent pas atteindre. Parce qu'au fond, le para-dressage nous rappelle peut-être l'essentiel : la force d'un cavalier ne se mesure pas uniquement à ses performances… mais à la relation qu'il construit avec son cheval.I am an Equestrian est le premier podcast pour les passionnés d'équitation et de sports équestres.

The best athletes in the world aren't consistent because their lives are calm. They're consistent because they've learned how to get back on track, fast. In this episode, we're breaking down the one trait that actually separates the ultra consistent from everyone else, and it has nothing to do with willpower or discipline. We're diving into the real reason you keep falling off your health routines, and why it might not be a character flaw at all. If you've ever missed a workout, overeaten on the weekend, or abandoned a protocol early and then spiraled into shame, this episode is for you. We unpack the surprising research behind the famous marshmallow test and what it actually reveals about trust, environment, and follow-through. You'll learn why your metabolism, hormones, and stress response may be working against your best intentions and what to do about it. We talk about what a real "way back" looks like when life gets busy, chaotic, or emotionally draining. Forget waiting until Monday; we're giving you practical resets you can use at your very next meal, workout, or hard moment. We also tackle the fine line between releasing shame and staying accountable, because both matter. You'll walk away with a handful of powerful questions to ask yourself when things fall apart, so you can turn setbacks into information instead of evidence against yourself. This episode will challenge the way you define consistency and replace perfection with something far more sustainable. If you're ready to stop starting over and start returning, this one's for you.

Puis le 28 novembre, c'est à Al Ula en Arabie Saoudite, que les Bleus de l'endurance tenteront de décrocher un nouveau titre mondial. Cette année, avec la Fédération Française d'Équitation, nous avons eu envie de vous emmener là où tout commence vraiment : dans les coulisses de la préparation au très haut niveau.Bienvenue dans Entre Cavaliers, une série portée par les cavaliers et staffs de l'équipe de France.Ces 10 épisodes ont été imaginés par I am an Equestrian et la FFE pour entrer au cœur de l'équipe de France d'équitation, comprendre ce qui se joue avant une grande échéance, et découvrir ce que le haut niveau exige réellement des femmes, des hommes… et des chevaux.Pendant plusieurs semaines, nous allons partir à la rencontre des grandes disciplines qui font vibrer notre sport — le saut d'obstacles, le concours complet, le dressage — mais aussi ouvrir les portes de disciplines plus confidentielles, moins médiatisées, et pourtant absolument fascinantes : le para-dressage, la voltige, l'attelage, l'endurance.On parlera de relation avec les chevaux, de bien-être animal, de préparation mentale, de méthodes d'entraînement, de collectif, de confiance, de résilience, de performance.On parlera aussi d'émotions. Parce qu'avant les médailles, avant les hymnes, avant les podiums… il y a des histoires humaines. Des histoires de passion, d'engagement total et de quête d'excellence.Pour nous, cette série représente énormément.Parce qu'elle nous permet de raconter ce sport autrement. Plus en profondeur grâce à la générosité et l'accessibilité de nos plus grands champions. Et parce que collaborer avec la Fédération Française d'Équitation autour d'un projet comme celui-ci est une immense fierté.Quand on parle de collectif, on pense immédiatement sport collectif : football, rugby ou encore basket... Ces fameux "sports co", ceux qui rassemblent une équipe entière sur un terrain, des athlètes qui évoluent ensemble pour créer une performance commune. L'équitation est plutôt perçue comme un sport individuel, qui se joue dans l'intimité de la relation entre un cavalier, un voltigeur ou un meneur et leur chevaux.Mais alors comment former une équipe lors des grands championnats ? Comment agglomérer plusieurs de ces athlètes pour viser une performance collective? Comment réunir des individualités pour représenter au mieux la nation ?Dans ce nouvel épisode de notre série "Entre cavaliers", enregistrée en collaboration avec la Fédération Française d'Equitation, nous avons échangé avec Frédéric Bouix, Président de la FFE et Sophie Dubourg, directrice technique nationale, pour comprendre le rôle du collectif dans la préparation d'un championnat, et parler de la place faite à l'esprit d'équipe en équitation.I am an Equestrian est le premier podcast pour les passionnés d'équitation et de sports équestres.

What if the constant thoughts about food you deal with every day aren't a lack of discipline… but your body trying to tell you something important? In this episode, we'll break down what “food noise” actually is and why it's become such a common struggle for women who feel like they're always thinking about their next meal. While the current conversation often points to quick fixes or appetite-suppressing solutions, we'll take a different approach. One rooted in understanding the body, not silencing it. Food noise isn't random, and it's not just mental. It's deeply connected to your metabolism, hormones, and nervous system. We'll walk through the three core drivers behind food noise: restriction, highly processed foods, and deeper biological dysregulation. From there, we'll zoom in on what's happening inside your body when those signals get louder covering blood sugar instability, chronic stress and cortisol, hormone imbalances, gut dysfunction, and inflammation. You'll start to see how things like cravings, urgency around food, and feeling out of control aren't personality flaws—they're physiological responses. We'll also explain why intuitive eating can feel impossible when your internal signals are dysregulated, and why simply “trying harder” often makes things worse. Most importantly, we give you practical, actionable ways to start calming the noise by supporting your body without extremes or all-or-nothing thinking. If you've ever felt like you're constantly negotiating with yourself around food, this conversation will connect the dots in a way that finally makes sense. Because the goal isn't to fight your body. It's to understand it. And when you do, the noise doesn't need to be forced quiet… it naturally starts to fade.

Et c'est bien normal. Il est de notre responsabilité d'humains de veiller à ce que nos chevaux s'épanouissent dans les activités et le mode de vie qu'on leur propose. Dans cet épisode, nous avons voulu donner la parole à celles et ceux qui, chacun à leur manière, œuvrent quotidiennement pour replacer le cheval au centre du débat.Parce que le bien-être animal n'est pas une tendance.

Two stories this week, both involving horses. In the first, a recent study of unearthed bones in Britan reveals that horses were much smaller in medieval times than they are today. Then, the world of polo is dominated by horses that have been cloned. Is that ethical?

What if all the “random” symptoms you've been dealing with… aren't random at all? In this episode, we unpack one of the most overlooked drivers of stubborn weight gain, hormone issues, and chronic inflammation: immune dysfunction. If you've ever felt like your body is working against you despite eating well, exercising, and doing everything “right”, this conversation will start connecting the dots. Because the truth is, your metabolism doesn't operate in isolation. It's deeply influenced by your gut, hormones, thyroid, nervous system, and especially your immune system. We walk through why so many women are given multiple diagnoses like Hashimoto's, IBS, or SIBO and told to treat them as separate issues, when in reality they may all stem from the same underlying pattern. When your immune system is constantly activated, your body shifts into survival mode, making fat loss, digestion, and hormone balance significantly harder. You'll also learn how chronic stress, whether from under-eating, overtraining, poor sleep, or emotional pressure, can keep your immune system stuck in overdrive. This isn't about “just reducing stress,” it's about understanding what's actually happening inside your body when it perceives threat. We also break down why quick fixes like medications or supplements often fall short when the root cause isn't addressed. While tools like Ozempic or antibiotics can have their place, they're not a substitute for true healing. Finally, we share the framework we use at Vital Spark Coaching to help women move from dysfunction to real results starting with foundations, then restoring the body, and only then focusing on fat loss and performance. The most important takeaway? Your body isn't broken. It's adapting. And when you understand what it's responding to, everything starts to change.

The mind may be the part that initiates the thought that carries out the action... However you cannot act without the physical or without the heart's desire. So, you could argue that thinking is also an emotion...

Spring is here and for many horse owners, that means one thing, it's time to get back in the saddle. But here's the catch - just because your horse feels ready doesn't mean their body actually is. On this episode of the Feeding Fumbles & Fixes series of Beyond the Barn, host Katy Starr chats with Dr. Kelly Vineyard, PhD equine nutritionist to break down what really happens when horses transition from winter downtime to spring work and the small adjustments that can make a big difference in performance, soundness, and overall health, including: What's changing in your horse's body as workload increases How seasonal feeding habits can unintentionally set horses up for setbacks What horse owners often overlook when moving from winter maintenance to getting back into performance mode Spring transitions aren't just about riding more, they're about adjusting nutrition, management, and workload with intention to set your horse up for success and avoid unfortunate setbacks.
Most women don't realize they're stuck until they've already tried everything that was "supposed" to fix them. In this episode, we unpack one of the most frustrating experiences women face: going beyond conventional medicine, investing in functional medicine, and still feeling stuck. I introduce the two common paths women take: traditional healthcare and functional medicine and explain why both can fail in different ways. You'll hear exactly why being told “everything is normal” leaves so many women without answers, and why even advanced testing and supplement protocols don't always lead to real results. I break down the critical difference between the idea of functional medicine and how it's often delivered in practice. I explain how poor sequencing, incomplete strategies, and lack of real-time support can actually make symptoms worse even when you're following the plan perfectly. If you've ever felt like your body just isn't responding despite your effort, this conversation will hit home. You'll also learn why supplements alone are rarely the solution, and how missing foundational pieces like nutrition, lifestyle, and stress regulation can stall progress completely. I have a powerful “flower and soil” analogy to explain why your body needs the right environment before it can actually heal. Most importantly, this episode reframes the narrative so many women internalize that they are the problem. If you've tried both conventional and functional approaches and still don't feel like yourself, this isn't a failure of your body. It's a gap in the process. By the end, you'll understand exactly what's been missing—and what a truly effective, personalized approach to healing actually requires.

What if the most frustrating message in your health journey isn't wrong… it's just incomplete? In this episode, we unpack the moment so many women know all too well. Finally getting the courage to ask for help, only to be told “everything looks normal.” I share why this experience is far more common than it should be, and why it often leaves women feeling more confused, dismissed, and alone than before. We break down what standard lab testing is actually designed to detect and why it frequently misses the deeper dysfunction driving symptoms like fatigue, weight gain, bloating, and brain fog. You'll learn the critical difference between disease and dysfunction, and why you can feel terrible even when nothing shows up as “wrong” on paper. We also dive into the truth about reference ranges, and why “normal” often just means average, not optimal. I'll walk through real examples, including how thyroid and hormone imbalances can exist within normal ranges yet still disrupt how you feel every day. We explore what standard testing doesn't look at at all, from gut health to full hormone patterns, and why those gaps matter more than most people realize. This episode also highlights how cortisol, stress, and the nervous system play a role in keeping the body stuck, even when basic labs appear fine. Most importantly, we talk about the emotional impact of being told you're “fine” when you know you're not, and how that message can slowly shift the way you see yourself. There's a powerful validation that comes from finally understanding what your body has been trying to tell you all along. If you've ever felt like your body isn't responding despite doing everything right, this conversation will give you clarity, language, and a completely new perspective. You are not the problem and this episode will help you understand why.

They cover common acute injuries from falls, chronic overuse problems from repetitive riding motions, boot fit and orthotic considerations, recovery strategies, and when to seek immediate medical attention. Dr. Roth emphasizes prevention, early evaluation, tailored rehabilitation, and balancing medical best practices with riders' training goals. Practical tips on boot break-in and working with physical therapists are discussed, plus a reminder to address unusual skin findings like melanoma. Foot & Ankle Care of Colorado
A lot of riders think they need a better outline, smoother transitions, or a horse who feels more "together"… But underneath all of that is a deeper question:- Can your horse maintain their own body without you micromanaging every stride? In this episode of the Daily Strides Podcast for Equestrians, we're diving into why self-carriage matters so much more than most riders realise, and why it has very little to do with head position, 'frames', or how your horse looks on the outside. Because, let's face it; if you are constantly having to hold everything together, balance every stride, and manage every little piece of the ride, it very quickly becomes exhausting! As riders, it is so important to help our horse to understand and begin workin on carrying their share of the 'team work'. In this episode, I'm breaking down what self-carriage actually means in practical rider language, what it definitely is not, and how you can begin recognising where your horse may need more support and development. What self-carriage really means for everyday riders Why self-carriage is not about head carriage or a pretty outline How to tell if your horse is leaning on you for balance The question every rider should ask:- 'If I softened here, would my horse maintain?' Why some horses can hold things together for only a few strides How riders often end up doing too much without realising it Why lunging is one of the best places to begin developing self-carriage Connection Membership Join a growing community of riders from around the world who are building consistent progress in the saddle, often without riding more.

Style your home the way you style yourself—personal always wins. If it doesn't feel like you, it won't feel right—no matter how beautiful it is. 2. Equestrian style = leather, brass, and polish… not horse overload. It's about subtle nods to tradition through materials and tailoring, not literal motifs. 3. The best rooms feel collected, not decorated. Layering pieces over time creates depth, character, and that effortless designer look. 4. Splurge on the anchors, save on the accents. Invest in the pieces you live with every day, and have fun switching out the rest. INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE: "Your home should tell your story—layered, personal, and never too perfect." FUNNY QUOTE: "Good design is like a great outfit—if you're uncomfortable, it's not working."

I want to tell you about a woman who was doing everything right. Eating clean, working out consistently, tracking everything, taking all the supplements. She'd been doing this for two years. And in those two years her weight had gone up, her energy had gotten worse, and she'd started waking up every morning with this low-grade dread about her body that she just couldn't shake. She went to her doctor. Labs came back normal. She went to a functional medicine doctor. Got a supplement list. Came back six months later feeling exactly the same. And at some point she started to quietly believe that maybe she was just the problem. She wasn't. And if any part of that sounds familiar, stay with us because that's exactly what today's episode is about. We are going to break down exactly why smart, disciplined women are doing everything right and getting worse results, why the medical system keeps missing it, and what's actually going on in the gut, hormones, and metabolism that standard testing never finds.

What if the reason your hormones feel “off”… has nothing to do with supplements, diets, or doing more and everything to do with what you're not doing daily? In this episode, we break down the five simple but powerful habits that can dramatically improve your hormone health in as little as 90 days. These aren't trendy hacks or complicated protocols. They're foundational lifestyle shifts that most women overlook while chasing faster, flashier solutions. We dive into how your morning routine, movement, and evening habits directly influence cortisol, energy, metabolism, and overall balance. You'll learn why something as simple as morning light exposure can reset your internal clock and why daily movement doesn't have to mean intense workouts to be effective. We also unpack one of the most overlooked disruptors of hormone health: your nighttime routine. From screen exposure to late-night eating, these small habits may be quietly working against your body more than you realize. This episode challenges the idea that you need to do more and instead shows you how to do what actually matters. Because when your lifestyle supports your body, everything starts to work with you instead of against you. If you've been feeling stuck, exhausted, or like your body just isn't responding the way it should, this conversation will give you a clear, practical path forward. Start with one habit, stay consistent, and watch what changes. Because your body isn't broken. It's just waiting for the right inputs.
