Just teaching this 2 yr old tricks.

I told Addysan, "Keep him at a trot and then hum to bring him to a stop."

Good boy Bourbon!

I remember when this mare was born and how excited I was to finally have my dream horse… a palomino tobiano! And as an added bonus, she had that beautiful, long mane. ❤️

Kachina Streak N Jamaica was my first reining project back in 2017. Unfortunately, she was simply too hot of a mare for what I was asking of her at the time. Soooo… I did what I felt was best for her and started searching for what she loved the most.

And that was SPEED! 😂

This mare loved to run. She loved it so much that every time she really got going, she would almost black out, forget everything she had ever been taught, and turn into a runaway freight train. 😂

Kachina and I have definitely had our rounds over the years. I taught her a lot, but more importantly, she taught me a lot too.

I started her on the barrel and pole patterns, and by the time I finished her, we were running the barrel pattern bridleless. She was absolutely amazing—a true powerhouse.

But later on, I got Just About Rip, and all of my attention shifted to him. He was my true reining stallion prospect, and I was determined to put everything I had into him.

So Kachina got pushed to the side for a while.
Until I finally convinced my husband, Jake, to start riding her and roping off of her. I knew she was far too good of a horse to just stand around. She needed a job.

At that time, Kachina was simply way too much horse for the kids. She needed someone who could understand her and give her a purpose.
Eventually, Jake started taking Kachina to all of the local play days. And once the two of them really got to know each other, they became an incredible team.

The funny thing about Kachina is that nobody ever really had to practice on her. She was the kind of horse you could just catch, saddle up, and go. She knew her job and loved it!

And she has gone on to win several championships and reserve championships ever since. 🏆

Looking back, I think Kachina taught me one of the most important lessons in training horses:
It isn't always about making the horse fit what you want them to be. Sometimes it's about taking the time to learn who they are, what they love, and what they were meant to do.

Good training isn't just about creating a finished horse.
It's about creating a horse that has a purpose, enjoys their job, trusts their person, and gets the opportunity to become the best version of themselves.

Take the time to get to know your horse. Listen to them. Find what makes them shine. And do what is best for THEM.

Because sometimes, the horse you thought you wanted becomes something even better than you ever imagined. ❤️🐴🏆

Every great horse starts with a foundation. 🐴

Before the sliding stops, the spins, the lead changes, and the moments that take your breath away… there are the basics.

The groundwork. The repetition. The patience. The trust.

You start by teaching them to listen. You teach them what you are asking, and they slowly learn that you will be fair, consistent, and there for them every step of the way.

A solid foundation isn't built overnight. It is built one ride, one lesson, one mistake, and one success at a time.

And somewhere along the journey, something beautiful happens…

The horse that once needed to be taught every step begins to understand you. The communication becomes quieter. The cues become lighter. The trust becomes stronger.

Until one day, you realize you're no longer simply training a horse.

You have become partners.

Just About Rip is a reminder of why I believe so strongly in taking the time to build a solid foundation from the very beginning. Because when the foundation is right, the finished product is so much more than a well-trained horse.

It's a partnership built on trust, respect, communication, and countless hours of believing in one another.

From the first lesson to riding bridleless into a sliding stop… ❤️

The greatest reward isn't creating a finished horse. It's creating a partner who trusts you enough to give you their whole heart.

(This was from when Rip was 4 yrs old) An old post but a good one. I will be posting more older post from my normal page bc I just realized I post more there and forget to post in here. Lol!

I’m still in shock that we actually did it. ❤️

Just About Rip and I DID IT! 🏆

Rip is the very first reining stallion I’ve personally trained, and this young stallion gave me absolutely everything he had. With only 73 rides, he walked in there and gave me his heart—and I couldn’t be more proud of my dude.

I’m probably the weirdo who has watched our videos over and over again, just taking it all in. 😂

But when you’ve poured your heart, time, sweat, and soul into something, you’re allowed to be proud of it.

I can’t wait for my shoulder to heal and for this cooler weather to roll in so we can get back to work. There’s still so much I want to accomplish with this horse, and I’m already excited about preparing for next year. ❤️

And honestly… this one feels bigger than just a show.

This is for all the hard work. For the harassment. For the betrayal. For the humiliation. For every obstacle, every doubt, and every moment I wondered if I was good enough.

It’s for all the years I’ve endured, worked through, and kept showing up—because I wanted to become the reining trainer I knew I could be.

I’m proud to say I made it here without needing a big ego to fill. I don’t need to tear someone else down to build myself up, and I will never be a bully in this industry.

I’ll keep learning. I’ll keep working. I’ll keep helping others when I can. And most importantly, I’ll keep putting the horse first.

This is just the beginning. ❤️

Just a cowgirl chasing dreams... 🤎🐴

I am my own biggest fan. My own supporter. I stand on my own two feet, and I’ve learned to believe in myself—even when others don’t.

So, off to the training barn I go... the place where I find peace. The place where I can breathe, learn, grow, and continue chasing the dreams that were placed in my heart. ❤️

This morning, my daughter Mesa said something that really made me stop and think.

She said, “Mom, I watch you work so hard. You’re always hauling horses, always helping others, always trying to make people happy. But I never see people do that for you. I’ve heard your friends & coaches say horrible things to you & be mean to you, and you act like nothing happened. Why do you do it?”

My answer to her was simple...

“Mesa, sometimes you just have to keep on keeping on.”

Friends will come and go. (Are they really a friend though? ) People will change. People get jealous. And it's not my responsibility to change their thoughts. But dreams? Dreams can live on forever.

I’m not living my life based on friendships or the approval of others. I’m living for the experiences, the lessons, the growth, and the people I have yet to meet. I thrive on learning, growing, and continuing my education—because education never truly ends.

Unlike some friendships.

I’ve learned that untrustworthy and unworthy friendships are not worth sacrificing your peace over. It takes too much energy trying to keep up with people who constantly change character based off who they hang out with, talk behind your back, or make you feel like you have to belittle yourself just to fit into their world.

So instead, be kind in the moment. Love people in the moment. Enjoy life in the moment.

Because people change, seasons change, and life moves fast. It simply isn't worth wasting your energy trying to hold onto people who were never meant to stay.

Keep chasing your dreams. Keep learning. Keep growing. Keep being kind.

And most importantly...

Keep on keeping on. ❤️

Just a cowgirl, chasing dreams... and finding peace along the way. 🐴🤎

Today was ride #5 for this 2-year-old, Bourbon—and today was a big one! 🤠

It was his first time being ridden outside, and on days like this, my goal is simple: expose them to as much as possible. The more they see, the more confident and prepared they become.

We walked, trotted, loped, zig-zagged through the forest, and made our way up and down the hills. And Bourbon handled it all like a champ! ❤️

Days like today are such a great reminder of why groundwork matters so much. When we take the time to teach a young horse how to think, listen, and stay relaxed on the ground, they learn to use that same mind when we get in the saddle.

We aren't just teaching them where to put their feet—we're teaching them how to think through new situations instead of reacting to them. That foundation is everything.

Bourbon did GREAT today, and I couldn't be more proud of this young guy! 🐴🔥

And a huge thank you to Mesa, Sarah, and Roper for getting out there and riding with me on this SUPER hot morning. I appreciate you all more than you know! ❤️

One ride at a time. One lesson at a time. Building a horse that thinks, trusts, and wants to learn. 🤠🐴

Sometimes, the most exciting part of being a horse trainer has absolutely nothing to do with speed, big maneuvers, or making a horse look “spazzy.” ❤️🐴

Sometimes the real excitement is watching a horse think, relax, and understand.

Today, I spent some time with QB Gold N Jack — AKA Bentley, teaching him how to neck rein and move off of leg cues. Nothing flashy. No rushing. No trying to see how much I could get out of him in a short amount of time.

Just quiet, patient teaching.

I truly believe a horse learns and remembers so much more when their mind is in a relaxed state than when they are stressed, anxious, or overwhelmed. When they feel safe enough to think, they can actually process what we're asking of them.

As trainers, it's easy to get caught up in wanting to see those big, exciting moments—the fast turn, the hard stop, the quick maneuver.

But sometimes the biggest accomplishment is a horse quietly saying, “Okay, I understand.”

That's the kind of training I love. ❤️

Build the mind. Build the trust. Build the foundation.
The speed and fancy stuff will come later.
But a horse that learns to trust you and think with you? That's something worth being excited about.

Is it like this for every training session? No of course not, but it is good for both the horse and the trainer to slow things down a bit when need to.

🤠🐴❤️
