Thank you- to everyone who donated last summer to help me keep Chileno when I had some ‘unexpected’ medical costs arise. To this day I cannot tell you how much it means to me that this big, beautiful, (albeit pretty dumb) buckskin boy is still in my life.

Taking a life flight last summer wasn’t part of my plan… honestly I didn’t have a plan for anything anymore except for being gone… I was done with life. No more plans. Ever. Catch my drift?

Recently it was announced that the documentary (5000 Miles 5000 Mustangs Documentary)from my ride is going to premier later this summer (Aug 5, Steamboat Springs, CO) and it’s brought up a lot of mixed emotions. Like A LOT.

But it’s also been a reminder of how much this horse matters to me as he was the one who carried me 95% of the time across the country, and how much I matter to others.

With the film coming out, it is good for me to remember that I am capable of big things and I am still capable of making a big impact in the world.

But I know I cannot continue to make waves on the earth alone- I can only do it alongside my mustangs and the human herd they have fostered & created around me.

To my mustang Chileno who has carried me through so much- thanks for still being here and helping me train the next generation of incredible mustang ambassadors. I love you.

To everyone who read this far- thank you, I love you, and you matter. Remind yourself how much you matter. Remind your loved ones how much they matter. Take the time now to tell someone how much they matter to you. You probably don’t know how much they need to hear it.

I haven’t announced much yet about my plans with Mustang UNO beyond competing in Forever Branded- Branded Bonanza in Missouri this fall, but he’s a huge part of my plan to begin addressing & helping with the mental health crisis happening across the world.

Stay tuned. I have plans. And it feels good to have plans in plural vs where I used to be several short months ago. Things are moving forward and upward.

Thanks for being here. I am thankful to still be here.

Everyone meet “Brandi” - 5 year-old Mustang Mare from Clain Alpine, NV.

Brandy came from the Hutchinson Correctional Facility completely unhandled 8 weeks ago and started her training this week! In just 3 sessions she is already wearing a halter! Can’t wait to see what her future looks like. Keep an eye out for her because she will be available for adoption after training!

Owned by - AMP (American Mustang Project).

Everyone meet Beth!

Beth is a 2021 ONAQUI MT UT Mustang mare that we rescued from the kill pen this past summer. She was unhandled but extremely curious and friendly. After letting her settle in, she basically halter broke herself. It wasn’t long before we began her groundwork and saddle introduction! This week she’s learning how to carry a rider for the first time! A “c**ts” first ride has nothing to do with steering, leg pressure, nose pressure or really anything other than figuring out how to carry a rider on their back for the first time at all three gaits - walk, trot, and canter. After the horse gets used to carrying its new passenger at all three gaits, then we can work on the steering wheel! 🤠
