What if the reason tracking macros isn't working anymore has nothing to do with your discipline? In this episode, I break down one of the most common frustrations I hear from women: "I used to track macros, lose weight, and see results. Now I do the exact same thing and nothing happens.". I want to share the story of how I once believed macros were the magic solution to fat loss, only to realize they were never the answer. They were simply a tool. We'll talk about why there is no perfect macro split, how the body constantly adapts to what we do, and why staying on the same nutrition plan for months or years can actually become part of the problem. I explain how functional nutrition often involves strategically changing calories, carbohydrates, fats, and protein to stay ahead of those adaptations rather than fighting against them. You'll learn why there may be a time for low-carb eating, a time for higher calories, a time for lower protein, and a time for a more balanced approach. Most importantly, we'll discuss how understanding macros can still be incredibly valuable when they're used within the right context. Today, I personally track my macros, not to lose weight, but to make sure I'm eating enough and maintaining the right balance for my current season of life. If you've been wondering why your old nutrition strategy isn't producing the same results anymore, this episode will help you understand what changed and how to start working with your body instead of against it.

In this episode of In The LOOP Podcast, Jordan Jo Hollabaugh sits down with one of barrel racing's most respected champions, Sherry Cervi. A 19-time NFR qualifier and four-time world champion, Sherry has built a career defined by great horses, quiet confidence, deep faith, and the people who helped shape her along the way. From growing up on Potter Ranch with rodeo in her blood, to learning horsemanship from her mom and mental toughness from her dad, Sherry reflects on the foundation that carried her through decades of competition. She shares stories behind some of the legendary horses that changed her life, including Troubles, Hawk, De Niro, and Stingray, while also opening up about the breeding program her father believed in so deeply. From De Niro's lasting influence to Stingray's next generation, Sherry talks about what it means to carry on a legacy through horses that continue to impact the industry. This conversation also goes far beyond gold buckles. Sherry talks about the importance of appreciating the small moments, staying grateful for the people who help you along the way, and using your story to give hope to someone else. Through loss, purpose, faith, and the western industry that has surrounded her, she shares what it means to keep showing up, keep learning, and keep giving back. ----In The LOOP Podcast hosted by Jordan Jo Hollabaugh, is inspired by the western culture and breakaway roping lifestyle.

Everyone wants to know how "bounce back" after having a baby. The truth is, that's not the goal. In this episode, I'm sharing my postpartum fitness plan and the approach I'll be taking during those first weeks and months after birth. Instead of jumping straight into workouts, fat loss, or trying to get my body back as quickly as possible, I'll be prioritizing recovery, sleep, healing, and listening to what my body actually needs. I'll walk you through what my first few weeks postpartum may look like, including why I plan to spend most of the first week resting, when I might begin incorporating light walks and mobility work, and how I'll use my body's feedback, not a rigid timeline, to guide the process. We'll also talk about why pelvic floor health is at the center of my recovery plan and why I believe every woman should consider working with a pelvic floor physical therapist before problems arise, not just after. I'll share why I won't be rushing back into intense cardio, despite the pressure many women feel to lose baby weight as quickly as possible. We'll also discuss the truth about waist trainers, why external support can actually delay core recovery, and what a healthier approach to rebuilding strength looks like. Most importantly, I'm talking about something I think every new mom struggles with: comparison. Because no two postpartum journeys are the same, and comparing your recovery, body, or timeline to someone else's is one of the fastest ways to create unnecessary stress and frustration. If you're pregnant, postpartum, or simply curious about a more sustainable approach to recovery after birth, this episode will give you an honest look at how I'm thinking about this next chapter and why slower may actually be the smarter path forward.

Send us Fan MailTonya Johnston, Mental Skills Coach speaks with researcher Janet Jones, Ph.D. about her new book, A Horse's World: A Neuroscientist's Journey Into the Equine Mind. Brought to you by Taylor, Harris Insurance Services.Host: Tonya Johnston, Visit her Website, Facebook and buy her book Inside Your Ride Guest: Welcome to the creative home of Janet Jones' books including her latest effort, A Horse's World: A Neuroscientist's Journey Into the Equine Mind, and the international bestseller Horse Brain, Human Brain: The Neuroscience of Horsemanship. With her background as neuroscientist, horse trainer, and writer, Janet is uniquely positioned to apply brain function to the training of horses and riders. Through experience with about a thousand horses, she has developed training techniques that work with--instead of against--equine brains. In 2014, she took this knowledge public and now teaches brain-based horsemanship all over the world, in person, online, and in writing.Janet's newest book, A Horse's World, introduces the general public to these magnificent prey animals through the real-life narrative of her horse True North, as he progressed from a naïve colt to an adult horse who understands human expectations. Along the way, it offers new knowledge to scientists, equine professionals, and curious general readers about how horses think, feel, learn, interact, and connect with humans. In proposal form, A Horse's World became the object of a bidding war among eight top publishing houses in New York. All horsemanship rests on mutual interaction between horse and human brains. By understanding how our horses' brains work, and how their brains differ from ours, we can ride and handle horses more safelytrain more effectivelyimprove performance in all equine disciplinesprotect our animals' comfort and welfareencourage mutual trust between prey and predator speciesdevelop brain-to-brain communication between species, andcreate stronger horse-and-human teams.All horses and humans have brains and must use them regardless of discipline. For that reason, brain-based horsemanship is as relevant to Western riders as English, as important to headers and heelers or working draft breeds as to dressage champions, racehorses, Grand Prix jumpers, and backyard pasture ornaments. Anyone who works with horses should learn how equine and human brains work in tandem.Janet Jones earned her Ph.D. in cognitive science from UCLA and taught the neuroscience of perception, language, memory, and thought for 23 years. She trained horses at a large stable early in her career, and later ran a successful horse training business of her own. She has schooled hundreds of green or difficult horses, rides many breeds and disciplines, and has competed in hunter, jumper, halter, western riding, and reining. She uses the basic principles of dressage in all horse sports. Janet developed brain-based horsemanship and offers it to horse enthusiasts in Horse Brain, Human Brain. In her latest book, A Horse's World: A Neuroscientist's Journey Into the Equine Mind, she broadens her perspective to invite the general public to learn why some of us love horses so much.Subscribe To: The Plaid Horse MagazineTitle Sponsor: Taylor, Harris Insurance ServicesSponsors: Zoetis, Sentinel, Chewy and Mojo Joint Join us at an upcoming Plaidcast in Person live event!theplaidhorse.comThank you so much for joining us today on the Plaidcast.

What if the amount of exercise you actually need for long-term health is far less than you've been led to believe? In this episode, I'm breaking down some fascinating claims from longevity expert Dr. Amy Killen that completely challenge the "more is better" approach many women have been taught when it comes to fitness. One statistic in particular caught my attention: her claim that women may achieve most of the longevity benefits of resistance training with surprisingly little weekly volume. We'll dive into what the research actually says about strength training, longevity, and mortality risk, including why multiple studies seem to show that the biggest health benefits occur at relatively modest amounts of resistance training. I'll also share why, in my own experience and in working with clients, two to three strength-training sessions per week seems to be the sweet spot for recovery, consistency, and long-term results. We'll talk about the trap of comparing yourself to genetic outliers, influencers, and fitness competitors whose training volumes often aren't realistic or necessary for the average woman. I'll also unpack the recommendation of 150 minutes of moderate aerobic exercise per week, why walking may be one of the most powerful longevity tools available, and my thoughts on where high-intensity exercise fits into the picture. Most importantly, I want to make the case that prioritizing health often leads to better physique outcomes over the long term than constantly chasing more workouts, more volume, and more intensity. We'll also discuss the real risks of overtraining, including hormone disruption, cycle irregularities, bone loss, and the cumulative stress excessive exercise can place on the body. If you've ever felt like you're falling behind because you're not doing enough, this episode might be the permission slip you need. Sometimes the path to better health, better recovery, and a better body isn't doing more. It's doing the right things consistently for years.

In this thought-provoking conversation, we sit down with renowned horseman Josh Nichol to explore the ideas that have shaped his approach to horses, people, and life.Josh shares his journey from growing up with horses in remote Canada to studying under Harry Whitney and developing his own framework for understanding horse behaviour through mind, space, and pressure.We discuss the difference between lightness and softness, why behaviour is often the symptom rather than the problem, how tension affects movement and soundness, and why true horsemanship begins with understanding what the horse is experiencing rather than simply trying to control what the horse is doing.This episode also explores leadership, liberty, personal growth, biomechanics, emotional regulation, and the responsibility we have as humans to create clarity, confidence, and understanding for our horses.Whether you are interested in groundwork, ridden performance, horse behaviour, or simply becoming a better horseperson, this conversation is packed with insights that will challenge and inspire you.To find out more about Josh Nichol Relational Horsemanship:Website: joshnichol.comFacebook: AHorsemansPursuitInstagram: @nicholhorsemanshipContact: info@joshnichol.comTo find out more about Canter Therapy Podcast and the hosts - Dr Shelley Appleton and Kathryn Christieson and support the show, visit the website:https://www.cantertherapy.com.au
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. On interviewe les plus grandes cavaliers, hommes et femmes de chevaux. Déjà plus de 140 épisodes
✨ Il y a des cavaliers dont l'histoire semble presque écrite à l'avance.Ils sont nés dans le milieu, élevés dans de grandes et belles écuries, baignés dans le haut niveau du sport ou dans une logique de performance, déjà. Et puis il y a ceux qui construisent leur chemin autrement
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.

Send us Fan MailFear doesn't always look like nerves. Sometimes it looks like freezing in a barn aisle, avoiding eye contact with a horse, or feeling your chest tighten the second a muzzle reaches toward your hand. Today we're sharing a story that starts exactly there and ends with something that still surprises us: Sandy Bernard now owns two horses and handles them with growing calm and skill at her facility in Quitman, Texas on Lake Fork.Sandy and I talk through what her fear felt like, where it may have started. We connect the dots between human anxiety and horse behavior, because horses are prey animals built for vigilance and flight. That shared instinct becomes the bridge to better horsemanship: when you understand fear, you can learn to lead with steadiness, clarity, and empathy instead of force.You'll also hear the practical path Sandy used to rebuild confidence around horses: tiny daily stretches, journaling victories, learning to be comfortable with being uncomfortable, and creating a calm communication plan with her husband so tension doesn't spill into the horses. We cover real new-owner moments too, from the early learning curve of horse care to how wind, environment, and energy changes can shake confidence and how to respond without quitting.If you've ever dreamed of having a horse but felt held back by fear, this conversation is for you. Subscribe, share it with a friend who needs a steady push, and leave a review with the small brave step you're going to take next.Support the showMay all your blues be ribbons
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.

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.

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.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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Softer, quieter, better presented—but still operating within the same underlying systems.Alexa offers a grounded and forward-looking perspective on what the next phase of horsemanship is asking of us, and why going deeper is no longer optional.This episode challenges listeners to move beyond appearance and into something more honest, more demanding, and ultimately more meaningful for horses.Because where this work is going next… surface-level won't hold.DISCOVER ALEXA LINTON HERE: https://outsidetheboxequine.com/Come and learn with Lockie inside the EH School.

Send us Fan Mail In this episode of the Profitable Steward Podcast, Jared Sorensen is joined by Tom Curtin for a rich conversation on stockmanship, horsemanship, and the everyday principles that improve livestock handling on the ranch. Tom shares how his early ranch life in Montana, his time at the King Ranch under Buster Welch, and years spent learning from legendary horsemen shaped his understanding of how cattle and horses respond to pressure, movement, and straightness. This episode dives into the importance of straight lines in stockmanship, how to build a straighter and more confident horse, and why proper positioning matters when handling cattle. Tom explains how improved cattle handling, better timing, and a deeper understanding of the point of influence can lower stress, reduce sickness, and improve the overall flow of ranch work. They also discuss practical applications for weaning calves, working pairs, sorting cattle, moving livestock, and using dogs effectively, all through the lens of low stress handling and better stockmanship. If you want to improve your livestock handling, strengthen your horsemanship, and better understand the connection between pressure, movement, and animal behavior, this episode is full of practical wisdom you can take straight to the pasture.

In this episode, I'm answering some questions about what really goes on during my horsemanship clinics. Tune in as I break down some of the key themes, training philosophies, and perspectives that trainers need to have to get the most out of the clinic experience.
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.

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.

Growing up on his grandfather's ranch in Montana, horses have been an integral part of Kip's life from the beginning. After graduating college with a Bachelor's of Science degree with an emphasis in livestock production management, Kip went to work on several large cattle ranches. It was during this time that he first met Buck Brannaman. Buck showed Kip that the horse had more to offer if you presented the information to him so he could understand it. Kip began riding with Buck at every chance he got, and incorporated this new way of interacting with horses into his daily ranch work. In 1996, Buck offered Kip a job working with him and travelling to his clinics. Kip graciously accepted and traveled with Buck for the next five years.Since 2003, Kip has been bringing the knowledge and experience he gained while working for Buck to the horses he rides for the public. His clients come from all over the country and include everything from Quarter Horses and Warmbloods to mules and draft horses. The solid foundation Kip gives to each horse has readied them for careers as everything from dependable trail horses to working ranch horses to FEI dressage horses. Kip started conducting his own clinics in 2004 at the request of several clients, and he now offers clinics suitable for any level or discipline of rider.After residing for 14 years in the Midwest, Kip has now relocated back to Montana and is currently riding horses for the public there as well as conducting clinics all over the United States.
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.

Together they reflect on the major eras that have shaped how humans train and understand horses, exploring what those traditions got right, where their insights remain valuable, and where new knowledge invites revision. The discussion moves from the vaquero and ranch traditions through modern horsemanship movements, and into the responsibilities facing today's horse people.

What if the reason your body isn't responding… isn't because you're doing something wrong? In this episode, I sit down with Vital Spark coach Lindsey Newman to unpack the story behind her journey from “doing everything right” to realizing her body was breaking down beneath the surface. Coach Lindsey shares what it looked like to chase the “fit mom” identity of training harder, eating less, and trying to prove something both to herself and to the world around her. Despite eating as little as 1200 calories, lifting six days a week, and adding in cardio, her body was gaining weight, her energy was crashing, and her hormones were spiraling. What followed was a season of deep exhaustion, chronic pain, anxiety, and the terrifying feeling that her body was no longer her own. She opens up about the emotional toll of that time, the frustration of being told she was “fine,” and the moment she finally felt seen after receiving a PCOS diagnosis. But even then, she knew there had to be more to the story. That search led her to functional health, where everything began to click. Lindsey shares how uncovering deeper root causes like POTS, gut dysfunction, and thyroid issues completely changed the way she understood her body and ultimately how she healed it. We talk about why “calories in, calories out” isn't the full picture, how systems in the body are deeply interconnected, and what most women are missing when they try to fix their health. This conversation is for the woman who feels exhausted, frustrated, and stuck despite doing everything she's been told should work. Because your body isn't broken and there is a way forward when you finally start looking at the full picture.

What if the very habits you believe are making you healthier are actually breaking your body down? In this episode, I sit down with functional health coach Lacey Iskra in our new home and podcast studio (hehe) to unpack the powerful and complicated journey that led her from bodybuilding and extreme dieting to true root-cause healing. Lacey shares how years of intense training, restrictive nutrition, and pushing through stress eventually left her with hormonal dysfunction, autoimmune symptoms, and a body that felt completely out of balance. Like many women in the fitness space, she was doing everything “right” on paper but still watching her health decline. Her story reveals how early gut health issues, birth control, chronic dieting, and years without a menstrual cycle quietly compounded into bigger problems later in life. After stepping away from bodybuilding, Lacey began searching for answers and eventually discovered the world of functional health and root-cause healing. Through gut testing, lifestyle changes, and deeper emotional and mindset work, she was able to completely reverse her psoriasis and rebuild her health from the inside out. Throughout the conversation, Lacey and I break down the biggest mistakes women make when trying to fix their health and why fat loss alone is rarely the real solution. We also talk about the missing link most health protocols overlook: addressing the physical, mental, and emotional pieces together. If you've ever felt like you're doing everything right but your body still isn't responding, this episode will help you understand why. And more importantly, it will show you that healing is possible when you finally start addressing the real root of the problem. Time Stamps: (2:19) Who Is Lacey Iskra?

All questions can be answered by one answer, ultimately, for good horsemanship, says Chris Morris, Certified Monty Roberts Instructor from the United Kingdom. Chris joins Debbie at the Monty Roberts International Learning Center in Solvang, California where he taught the Introductory Course of Horsemanship. "If you can learn how and why horses move, it makes everything easier when handling and training a horse." Listen in to how Chris teaches this concept. He has a degree in Animal Behavior and has helped many horses and people have better lives, together.
