Ali Brock is a U.S. Olympic dressage rider and trainer known for her dedication to the sport and to the horses and riders she supports. Originally from Honolulu, Hawaii, she left the islands at 17 to pursue a dressage career and went on to work under top professionals, including Olympian Sue Blinks. In 2004, she became head trainer at Deer Meadow Farm with the support of Fritz and Claudine Kundrun, and later spent time training in Europe with Jan Brink, Kyra Kyrklund, and Richard White. Ali earned international recognition riding Rosevelt, a 2002 Hanoverian stallion, as part of the U.S. team that won bronze at the 2016 Rio Olympics—the first Olympic dressage medal for the U.S. in 12 years.

Now based in Wellington, Florida, she continues to train horses and riders at the highest levels and to mentor the next generation of Grand Prix trainers. In this episode, Ali shares her philosophy on training and how it supports a strong, lasting partnership between horse and rider, including: • How a horse's emotional state influences her training approach and why recognizing that is essential. • The importance she places on the rider-horse relationship and the early mentors who shaped that perspective. • What commonly used dressage terms like “thoroughness” and “harmony” really mean in practice. • Why rules and regulations in horse sport should be based on evidence and context—not just snapshots or headlines.

They discuss how the FRC pulled off the job, and where it stands among other ingenious rule changes in other sports. They then make the point that if Gaelic football can be saved, then anything is possible: what lessons can the government learn from the FRC in tackling the housing crisis, or regulating Big Tech?And, if the GAA can fix Gaelic football in less than a year, why can't they accelerate the process of integration?Get in touch - sinead@thejournal.ie and gavincooney@the42.ie Hosted on Acast.

This week, I spoke to returning guest Emma Flynn. Emma was first on the podcast with the lovely Sinead more than three years ago, but her story was so compelling and so important that I wanted to catch up with her and see how things are for her now. Emma's story can be difficult to hear and can be triggering, so if you're a new mam or in a particularly sensitive place, just use caution and take care when listening. Now a mother of three, when Emma's first child, Jack was born, she went through the darkest and scariest moments of her life. She felt she didn't love her son, but worse, she felt the only way through her suffering was to hurt herself and her baby. With help from medication, her therapist, her husband and her supportive family, she managed to survive through it and go on to have two more children, and to absolutely adore all three of them. She has an incredibly supportive online community too where sharing her story has helped (and will continue to help) so many people going through similar but afraid to talk about it. We spoke about finding healing, her return to faith and how she is now, several years on from those traumatic days. It was a tough episode to record but so worthwhile. I'll be back next week, speak to you then. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Edna O'Brien's early novels shocked Ireland which plotted its revenge. Her first novel The Country Girls was banned and she had to withstand the whispering of the establishment that she didn't write her own novels.Her career would be a rebuttal to the cynics and the priests, but her life had its share of trauma and despair. In the 1970s she began an affair with a renowned and married British politician whose identity has never been revealed. She was consumed by the relationship, unable to work or think of anything else. A new documentary Blue Road tells the remarkable story of Edna O'Brien. On Free State today, Blue Road's director Sinead O'Shea talks about the Edna O'Brien she got to know at the end of her life and why she remained so fiercely independent.
