Hey hello hi friends (: We probably all saw this episode coming knowing me, but I genuinely feel this step is in the best interest of the podcast + myself; I've spent a lot of time over the past year really reflecting on what fills my cup + what I'm holding on to that no longer does. This podcast has been a passion project since it began + it has been such an incredible journey for me + I'm so thrilled to have played a role in advocating for more ethical horse training + management. It's truly been one of my greatest accomplishments in my eyes. Now, it feels like that story has been told + the project is mostly complete. It's a weird feeling that's taken me a while to sort out, but I'm doing my best to listen to my head + my heart with this one. All that said, I am 110% keeping the door open for future episodes to fill you guys in on what's going on with the horses + Azula's training. I'd love to pop in here + there, with no pressure or schedule (be a "real ~creative~" lol). So we'll see what happens friends, but for now, I thank each + every one of you for your time + support of this podcast. It means the world 💜

Hi friends, this week's ep starts out light covering some updates around my health journey, acne, etc and turned into quite a heavy one covering something I've been avoiding talking about for a while now. I wasn't really sure when I started the episode that I'd ever go there so apologies for the tone shift.

Even in the episode I say it happened a few months ago, but only in looking back have I realized it was actually nearly a year ago, December 5th that Hearthrob, Beau, Beaubie passed. Even now, having not seen him in years, and knowing it's been almost a year since his passing, I'm struggling to write this description. So please forgive me if the episode is a bit repetitive or all over the place, I know I didn't say everything I wanted to for Beau, but if I've learned one thing about grief, it's that it doesn't have to make sense. That said, I did want to share something as I know many have loved Beau from afar and cherished him. He reached far and wide and became a lil famous horse. He deserved every ounce of love and support he got from you guys and I just, man, I'm so grateful to have known him. I can't believe it's been almost a year. I wanted to share sooner, but honestly, I couldn't find the words. I'm still not fully sure what to say other than how special he was.

Rest easy sweet boy. You're in our hearts forever ❤️

Hello friends, this episode is exactly what it seems to be! 25 things I've learned in my time working with horses that I wish I'd known sooner and believe are worth sharing. Enjoy!

  1. "they wouldn't do it if they didn't want to" is a myth
  2. respect is often conflated / confused with obedience
  3. punishment only teaches horses to conceal their worries, fears, pain, discomfort
  4. it's not cool or a badge of honor to ride a "hot" horse
  5. it's not a disservice to or waste of the horse to not exploit their talent + athleticism
  6. regulating bodies do not always safeguard the horse's best interest + welfare
  7. tradition is not law + often fails to update with current research
  8. there is a difference in giving the horse a treat + training with positive reinforcement
  9. release does not equal reward
  10. management should be based on ethology + species-appropriate care
  11. when you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change
  12. if you have 5 minutes, it will take all day, but if you have all day, it will take 5 minutes
  13. yield to win
  14. Do the best you can until you know better. Then when you know better, do better.
  15. many issues in the horse world are reflective of systemic issues
  16. mares are not moody
  17. softness is not weakness
  18. our mental health is reflected in our riding + training
  19. think in "what do i want the horse TO DO" instead of what i want the horse to stop doing
  20. good riding + training is very boring + looks too easy
  21. all behavior has a purpose, look at what need is this behavior meeting rather than why is my horse "xyz" character trait
  22. my relationship with my horse is my responsibility
  23. if you slow down, you get there faster (successive approximation)
  24. treasure my passion + honor it, don't exploit it
  25. when you don't respect the "no" you cannot get a real "yes"

Hello friends, this episode is accidentally a more raw and vulnerable one. I start out catching you all up on Zoë + Azula and move into some more serious thoughts on training, mixing reinforcements (don't be scared now), my relationship with social media, and my dilemmas/paralysis when it comes to training and choosing my path. Enjoy!

Ok friends! We're on the third + final part of this booktalk series covering The Body Keeps the Score by Bessel van der Kolk. This section details about the treatment + recovery discussions in the book, specifically how important our role as an attuned "attachment figure" is in our relationships with our horses - especially those equine friends who are struggling with some traumatic fallout. We'll go in to depth about how some modern psychotherapy approaches might inspire our own treatment interventions with the horses. Enjoy!

Welcome to the first iteration of a little series I'd like to start on this podcast! Imagine a book club of sorts where I apply concepts from books I'm reading (horse related or not) to work with horses! So, in this ep, I discuss applying Bessel van der Kolk's "The Body Keeps the Score" to training and working with horses with a bit of a trauma history. This episode is part 1 of this book's episodes as I haven't quite finished all my notes on this one. Look out for part 2!

This ep is basically a speed run of all the things I've learned over the past year that have largely changed my life. All centered around increasing your connection with your horse, this episode goes into mindfulness, perception, intention, some emotional regulation and more. Additionally, I answer a listener question regarding a horse who nips/bites. Here's the question:

"I was wondering if you could discuss what a horse who nips means. My mare was scoped and treated for ulcers and I have seen a huge difference in her. She’s done with treatment but usually still nips when you go to pet her. I’ve been working on consent based care in the past months and also asking her if I can move into her space which seems to be working to make her feel much more comfortable. My question is why would she continue to nip? Is it a learned history from the ulcer? (you couldn’t groom/tack up or in anyway pet her without her biting at you) She’s on a gastric support feed and a ration balancer in order to keep her sugars down so I don’t think the ulcers are back since she is in a very low stress environment from what I observe with low sugar grains. Could I also be influencing this behavior by expecting it? Also what can I do to make her more comfortable when being around me? Just so you know I’m younger which means that I don’t have everything that I would want for her. She’s at my house so I have full control of her living situation (outside 24/7 with other horses)."

This question calls to mind the tendency to focus on what is going wrong, thereby expecting it, and perhaps even unintentionally influencing it to go wrong. Try to avoid statements like, “I want my horse not doing xyz,” as this still focuses your attention on the negative. This tends to lead to punishment, fear, or pain. Instead try this:

Ex: Horse bites

  • Unproductive: I don’t want my horse to bite.
  • Productive: I want my horse to feel safe, to interact with me with a closed, still muzzle.

Enjoy a drizzly lazy day with me as I regale events of the week's past such as the start of my new job, Zoë updates, and Azula's rain rot. We also dip into the divisive woo woo topic of energy where some shine with passion and where others spit in disgust (some really hate the idea of "training with energy"...). But I offer ye this... might we be looking at what it means to "train with energy" in the wrong way? Does is matter how you look at it? Isn't it just a nasty marketing ploy to justify not-so-great methods? Listen and see...(;

I also answer a few questions in the advice segment:

  1. How to begin to heal my relationships with my horse. I bought him 2 years ago as an all rounder, maybe riding club etc. He's not straightforward. Have spent the last 2 years battling with traditional methods and hating it more and more. Now I'm ready to just give up and sell him, but listening to part 2 of your chat with Adele Shaw I realized I could fall back in love. I'm probably going to loan him out to a hacking home for 6 months to give me a break and I may join Adele’s foundation course if I decide to have him back but how can I repair our relationship now. I don't want to start training with R+ if he's about to go to a traditional loan home but I want to feel a connection with him again. Thanks for all you do and for helping me resolve the cognitive dissonance of being a horse lover in the modern traditional British equestrian community.
  2. I am brand new to using +R & just starting to teach targeting & manners through a stall. My question is in previous sessions I’ve had issues with my donkey having anxiety/herd bound issues when I’m working with my mare. I have another donkey but he doesn’t seem to care about him when my mare is out of sight. Any suggestions on helping my donkey be ok when I’m somewhere else with my mare? I’m worried he may injure himself.

For the fastest episode turnaround in the history of ETP, I present to you a ‘sode filled to the brim with human-related content. This one has very little to do with horses, and everything to do with some potentially relatable hardships that have been going on in my life as well as how I’m dealing with them + what self-care practices have made all the difference for me. I hope this episode helps someone out there in one way or another, either way, thanks for listening💙🔥

Come along with me for a little bit of a story time as I regale the recent events spent enjoying the equines as they are as well as the young horses’ first time loose in the arena. Beyond this enchanting tale, I also took on a few listener questions. I cover…

  • A pony who’s struggling with leading + balking.
  • A horse who rears when asked to go forward.
  • A human who lacks motivation to work with horses in the winter.

What a wonderful lil episode this was! I hope it gave you guys some solid ideas of how we can work to improve the way that +R trainers present themselves, the science of behavior and training, and how we can all work to better the lives of our equine companions. Guest, Adele Shaw, and I attempt (as much as our very tangent prone brains allow) to cover a shaping plan from top to bottom explaining the bad and correcting for the good. Except this shaping plan isn't for the horses this time; it's all about us, the positive reinforcement trainers. So, if you are one, thinking of becoming one, or have interacted with one in the past, this episode is a great deep dive into why +R trainers are sometimes mildly unbearable and why other times, they are anything but!

You guys, I am so stoked for this episode. It’s been such a long time coming and I think it’s so good! So, quit reading this lame description and dive into this episode with the one and only Adele Shaw of the Willing Equine.

Adele Shaw is an internationally recognized mentor and trainer focused on creating a positive relationship between horse and human through science-based training and care practices. Drawn to horses labeled as “trouble makers” and “lost causes” from an early age, Adele has always had a passion for understanding the “why” behind behavior and a deep desire to help horses find their way back to wellness. This holistic approach examines the horse’s environment, lifestyle, and physical and mental soundness to ensure that the horses are not simply surviving, but truly thriving in their life and relationship with their human caretakers. As a teacher, Adele is supportive and understanding of both horse and human, and tailors her lessons to provide the most personalized, accessible and ethically minded coaching possible. Her approach goes beyond method: by offering flexible training and care systems, the wellbeing of the horse and the empowerment of the student always remain the primary goals.

In addition to her hands-on work with specialized rehabilitation cases at her ranch in Texas, Adele maintains an active role in the equestrian community through her clinics, online student programs, courses, blog, podcast, and social media outreach. As she connects with students across the globe, Adele remains dedicated to making information on behavioral science, positive reinforcement, LIMA principles, humane hierarchy, and species appropriate care practices accessible and achievable for every horse owner through The Willing Equine."

Welcome one and all to this absolute albatross-infested podcast episode. I hope you brought your opinion oars because you’ll be treading and wading through several of mine this episode (canoe, think canoe, that’s the metaphor). But, never fear, I assure you, my dear faint-hearted listener, that there are countermeasures in place such as… whacky, upbeat moments, cool, fun, funky fresh announcements, and silly goofy pony clips and tales sure to sustain your attention and bridge the gap between the entertaining podcast you all know and love, and that which lies beyond.

Hey hotties, if you’re also feeling like you’ve been living in a Johnny Cash music video going down, down, down in a burning ring of fire, this is the episode for you. I dive into the week of hundred-degree heat we’ve been spit-roasting and caramelizing in down here in the southern United States, and the challenges of keeping horses cool in it. I also do you all the favor of explaining how I helped Azula realize that the water horse is in fact not a translucent, spitting, slithery worm demon out to end her, but instead, a worthy ally, dare I say, friend. And now she can’t get enough of it! That’s enough caption, for now, I do literally have to run to go check on the horses and hose off the hot ones! Thanks for listening!

Here are some articles about heat stress + helping horses stay cool during these brutal summer temperatures: “There was no cooling effect of scraping following rapid cold-water application,” he said, which indicates heat dissipation by conduction is greater than that of sweat evaporation. Specifically, the horses’ body temperatures dropped and continued to drop 10 seconds after water application alone. When the team scraped the water from the horses’ bodies, their temperatures increased immediately.” Hosing Hot Horses Post-Exercise: Scrape Off Water or Reapply? — https://thehorse.com/1101202/hosing-hot-horses-post-exercise-scrape-off-water-or-reapply/

To my fellow equestrian entrepreneurial spirits and internet hashtag girl bosses, this one’s for you. This episode dives into my experiences as a ✨social media influencer✨ in the equestrian world. From what it was like when I came up to all the ways it’s changed today. I give some advice on what I’ve learned about how to be successful today (even though I’m rotten at implementing it myself) as well as discuss some of the thoughts you guys shared with me on Instagram.

Don’t forget to take the survey! It would be a massive help to me. Thanks for listening(:

This episode is unfortunately a tragic one. A lot of things went south over the last weekend. It honestly seemed to be one awful thing after the other. It was difficult to discuss, but I felt that those of you following Rory and Reina’s story deserved the update. Beyond that, there wasn’t really much else that I think I could’ve talked about for this week.

So please be kind and try to understand that if we had known what would’ve been ahead of us, we never would’ve made the decision we did a few weeks ago. The whole thing was beyond heartbreaking and awful to deal with.

May momma Reina rest easy❤️

Good morrow my friends, and happy Tuesday. If you’d like to brighten your ruby day, give this episode a taste. In it, I cover a unique experience I shared with my mare, Zoë, that has me rethinking some things. It seems that may be my permanent state of being and perhaps I ought to just accept that whenever I think I’ve figured something out, the universe will grant me something even more unexpected than the something I thought I’d figured out. What a caption for a podcast episode, but in truth, it’s because I honestly cannot recall much more about what I talked about, so hopefully the chattering of my lil verbose and over-sharing heart will make a larger impression on you than it did me!

This episode is more serious than the more recent eps as I cover the recent world debut of our Andalusian x Lusitano colt, Rory. His dam, Reina, was a neglected founder case… and a broodmare. And because of the heartbreaking nature of her situation, we faced some seriously tough decisions, and still will.

Howdy partner, and welcome back to your weekly dose of horsey nerddom. This time, we’ll be delving in to the common quandary, “When can I stop with the food rewards already?!” Hopefully, you’ll find that I answer this question, and if you’re lucky… perhaps you’ll learn a bit more about what forces drive your horse’s brilliant, and not so brilliant, behavior.

Do you also have a shame goblin hiding out under your bridge of dreams, slinking around hoping to thieve your newborn, budding confidence and pester you with an onslaught of intrusive thoughts about every way in which a given situation might go horribly wrong? Inhale If yes, this is the episode for you. I discuss those fun facets of hashtag living your best life and how to get the most out of your session planning so you might actually be able to get out of your own head and onto working with your horse.

In this week’s episode, I take a deep dive into my health and some of the big changes that I’ve made in my life that have done wonders for my mental and physical health, which, of course, only enhances the horsemanship aspect. It’s all too common in the equestrian world that we overlook our personal health and even joke about how much we give our horses, but wouldn’t dream of doing for ourselves. So, maybe this episode will inspire some ideas in you of how you can help your horse by helping yourself.

Hi All🌞🌎

In this week's episode, I dive into the topic of trailer loading. This topic is no stranger to the show, but it is such a common problem for horses and their humans that it warrants multiple discussions in my opinion. This angle on trailer loading discusses a current problem facing my boss and her nine-year-old, chestnut, OTTB gelding, Six. He's truly a delight to work with and helping him overcome his anxiety around the trailer has been such a pleasure!

Hi All🌞🌎

Things are changing! I've updated to options available to Patreon Members and am sharing with you guys the details behind the change as well as what opportunities these changes offer to you! Beyond that, I go over what's been happening with me and the horses lately. Finally, I answer the final patreon questions that I'll likely ever be answering on this podcast in this format. It's been a wildly educational journey answering these questions, but I think the podcast is about tapped out on them. So, I'm moving things around and doing them privately. The episode explains more!

So! The final patron questions are answered in this episode and they include:

  • Two young horses who won't pick up their feet — "the filly always tries to kick me and the colt has bitten me a few times."
  • When is the clicker signal important & is it more effective to not use it? Plus information about what marker signal to use while riding.
  • A horse who struggles with the farrier working on his feet.

Hi All🌞🌎

This week's episode answers Patron McKenna's questions. Here's an idea of all the topics we covered:

  • What are your thoughts on how & when one should use sedation (Ace, Dormosedan, etc.)?
  • Is it possible for the clicker/R+ way of training to be too slow for a horse’s well being?
  • When should a professional clicker trainer get involved in-person?
  • Could a horse could be “too far gone” to train?
    • Do you think it is ethical to try & “fix” a horse in a state of post-trauma recovery & continue to try to reintegrate the horse into a normalized way of functioning, or should we instead try to find a way to comfortably retire them (permanently or temporarily) & cease the majority of reintegration training as a way to respect them in their present situation?
  • Could you please clarify how “combined reinforcement” works?
    • Is it possible in the clicker training world to use both +R & -R together ethically?
  • What are your thoughts are on the idea that humans decide on a training method based on their past traumatic experiences? Has that been true for you in choosing R+? What are your thoughts on using “energy” pressure when training horses?
  • Is it advisable and/or ethical to train a horse when in a conflicted/irritated/angry mindset?
    • Therefore, is it advisable & /or ethical to train a horse while suffering from a mental disorder flare-up when it causes a conflicted/angry/etc. mindset?
  • Do you know of any sources that describe how to best transition a horse from daily “feedings” to 24/7 forage access?
  • What are your thoughts (in general) on the Extreme Mustang Makeover & The Road to the Horse competitions?
    • Do you know if there is any data concerning these competitions specifically that would suggest that these horses are more likely to have bolting/bucking/"problem horse" issues or even health problems post-adoption/sale?
    • Do you think it's possible to compete in short term training competitions like these with clicker training?
    • Of the clicker trainers I know of, very few actually compete on a regular basis in the hopes of refraining from putting too much pressure on their horses.
    • Do you think that clicker-trainers will ever be willing to participate in these kinds of competitions?
    • What do you think it will take to get people to do so?

Thank you guys for checking it out! And thank you to Patron McKenna for asking such thought provoking questions!

Any tips/tricks on trailer loading? What do I need to do to recondition the halter? How would I go about retraining a horse to ride that has been a pasture pet for the last 4 years?

  1. My question involves nipping... specifically nipping me in my face.
  2. My question is about tail flicking while riding.
  3. Half of the time she is a lovely lady but the main problem is that she bolts in hand. It’s not like she spooks… It’s more like 'i want to go this way.’

Hi All🌞🌎

This episode covers a lot of the common concerns & necessary considerations one might have when switching to +R training with their horses! See the outline below for a feel of what we cover in this Part of the Beginner's Guide to +R Horse Training series!

🔥OUTLINE + TOPICS COVERED🔥

  1. Is it all or nothing? Can you mix?
    • Types of pressure
    • Tactile
    • Emotional
    • Aversive
    • Dominance theory
  2. If you've been working with your horse using -R until now how do you not confuse between the two? How do you start implementing it & not overlap with traditional and confuse the horse?
    • Fear of being wrong / insecure / awaiting correction
    • Don’t overdo it in the beginning
    • Curse of Knowledge — clarity of communication
    • Start where you haven’t used aversives (help you & horse work in new mindset)
  3. -R Brain
    • Yanking on the lead rope
    • Acknowledge that you did that
    • Figure out why you flicked back to old methods.
    • “I find it often happens when the horse is just confused. Next time if you notice your horse isn’t doing what you want it to, try to remember that the horse is probably confused or one of its natural instincts is screaming in its head (run away the mail box will eat you). You just need to do something differently, instead of applying an aversive until they do what you want.”
  4. How do incorporate in traditional barn/setting

Hi All🌞🌎

Things have been ridiculously busy as of late & even while I write this, I'm remembering more things I have to do & other things I could've discussed in the episode! Ah it's been crazy lately, but I'm hopefully my ~universe~ will slow & level out here soon. Nevertheless, I hope you guys enjoy this weird little episode!

Hi All🌞🌎

In this episode, Caine Meyer from @MeyerHorsemanship go top to bottom answering the questions you guys wanted answered regarding riding with +R! I hope ya learned something!

Here are some examples of what was asked & answered!

  1. Which is harder: Teaching horses or riders to ride with +R?
  2. Is treating after a good round +R? (It depends)
  3. What if there are no +R riding instructors near me?
  4. Is competition and those at high levels possible?
  5. Do you believe it's possible to interact with horses using solely +R? Should you?
  6. How do I stop my horse from pulling on the reins?
  7. What should I do if my horse doesn't listen to my signals and fight me on everything?
  8. How can I use +R to help a former lesson horse that loves to balk on the ground AND undersaddle?
  9. How do you keep your horse from offering things all the time (i.e. cantering when unwanted?)
  10. I treat my boys on the ground, but have been told not to treat them while I’m riding because that’ll make them misbehave. Thoughts?
  11. How often do you click a reward a horse during a ride. Every time they do the correct thing or after a sequence of correct things? Or does that come with the more training you do?

And that's only half! Many more answered to the best of our ability, all in this week's episode of EquiTheory! (:

Hi All🌞🌎

In this episode, Caine Meyer, of Meyer Horsemanship, & I discuss riding with +R & Clicker Training! This is the 3rd episode in the series of riding with positive reinforcement.

Hi All🌞🌎

In this episode, Caine Meyer, of Meyer Horsemanship, & I discuss riding with +R & Clicker Training! This is the 2nd episode in the series of riding with positive reinforcement. There is so much content to cover on this topic that there's no way we could fully address every variable — but that definitely didn't stop us from trying!

To give you a feel for the episode we address... Of course, how on earth do you get anywhere without stopping all the time, and... How riding + feeding work together, what we use for undersaddle rewards, first steps, mounting, goals & achieving them, moving, getting more speed + high energy movements, bending/turning, proper carriage, & much more!

Here's the link about keep going signals — https://zoospensefull.com/2019/07/08/the-intermediate-bridge-vs-keep-going-signal/

Hopefully, this episode will give you guys a lot to think about — it certainly did for me! The third part drops next Tuesday (October 20, 2020) covering starting/restarting riding with +R, so be sure to give this one a listen first! The fourth & final part will be answering your questions that these episodes have produced in you! So, be sure to take part in asking(:

Hi All 🌞🌎 In this episode, I tell the story from the other night's events wherein I had to round up all the loose the mares & foals! It was a wild ride for sure lol, but the episode doesn't end there! I discuss possible solutions to two patron questions:

☀︎ "Since I know my emotional state affects Falcon so much, in the situations where he’s not getting on the trailer, is it better to…Keep re-approaching and risk me getting upset (I know I shouldn’t, but my brain doesn’t know how to not demand perfection yet) which will make Falcon upset?" ☀︎ "I’ve reached out to friends that have stallions & they all told me I need to be dominant, the leader, & not let him get away with anything. My plan is to barrel race him eventually, so he needs to be close to mares & not act on his urges. He will be gelded but that’s not financially possible, right now. I just don’t know how to keep him in check throughout his career without “putting him in his place” as people have told me I mean obviously if I’m in a situation that could become dangerous, I’ll do what I have to do but I’m just not sure how to train it."

So, tune in for all sorts of directions we go on this episode! Be sure to leave a review for this podcast! If you have a specific question you want answered on air, become a patron & ask away!

In this episode, I discuss a 3 year old filly's near death experience & how I saved her as well as why my cat, Archie, had to leave. This episode is a bit tense, but I think it's an important topic. Give it a listen & let me know what you think!

Hi All🌞🌎

In this episode, I have a conversation with Shelby Dennis to discuss all things Stalls vs. Turnout. Is one better than the other? What are the costs & benefits of each? When do you do which? Which is ethical & which is practical? All covered & answered to the best of our ability in this episode! Do try to keep in mind that all of our opinions & horse-related philosophies are ever evolving. If you stall your horse, this episode is not to shame you or make you feel guilty. But to instead, provide you with some research, opinions, and an open conversation around another way to do things. Then, when you see both sides, you can make an informed decision about what you'd like to do with your horse. If your circumstances are not ideal, that's ok, too. But I do think we should all be moving toward what's best for the horses and not necessarily what's the most convenient for us. It's all a process as we all never stop being students of the horse(:

It’s a long one so tune in during your commute, errand running, stall mucking or listen on 2x speed!

The EquiTheory podcast — formerly Equine in Theory & then JET Real Podcast — follows the real-time journey of master's student & equestrian Jill Treece (me). Each week, I discuss topics ranging from horse training, care & handling to story-times to just my general experience with life as a Mental Health Counseling student.

Hopefully, you'll find me mildly entertaining while you drive to the barn, clean stalls, etc. I have so much to share with you guys! I'm thrilled to have a place to vent — & I’m sure my family & friends are too! I hope you'll enjoy it or at least listen to most of it.

Hi All🌞🌎

In this episode, I answer your questions! The questions/concepts include…

How to help a head shy horse who struggles with aggression; working with a horse who is concerned about her herd + fine tuning training backing up to get the treat; should we teach riders & trainers about intelligent disobedience (ID) + can/should you reinforce a horse for I.D.? ; how to help a horse who gets anxious only in lessons; solving a yearling’s aggression toward people who try to pet her; what your options are when you have a lazy lesson horse; why could a horse be biting his blanket + could thrush cause aggression? & finally, is it normal to feel off about riding when you switch to +R training?

All covered & answered to the best of my ability in this episode! It’s a long one so tune in during your commute, errand running, stall mucking or listen on 2x speed!

Hi All!

This week's episode is done in a conversational style. I just wanted to level with you guys this week since I've been under a lot of stress lately including some heavy things that I didn't have time to cover fully in this episode, but maybe I will soon. However, it seems the universe is finally on my side — dropping some incredible ideas & opportunities into my lap! One of those things is the spectacular Come Along for the Ride Podcast. I have loved this podcast for over a year now, but the recent episodes are pure gold. You'll have to listen this episode to find out how these episodes changed Zoë & the way I perceive our interactions. It's worth it, I hope. But the episodes from Come Along for the Ride that I mention in my episode are...

✧ Warwick Schiller — https://edenriverequestrian.com/warwick-schiller-performance-horsemanship/

✧ Chris Irwin — https://edenriverequestrian.com/chris-irwin-horse-trainer/

✧ Bex Tasker — https://edenriverequestrian.com/bex-tasker-positively-together/

✧ Monty Gwynne — https://edenriverequestrian.com/monty-gwynne-equispeak/

Highly recommend giving these bad boys a listen. You won't regret it, I promise you that!

Okay guys so this week’s episode is a bit different. It has recently come to my attention that a video as well as several posts were made in response to my comments regarding the join up method during my dominance theory episodes. Enough was said that I felt I needed to address the issue again in greater depth & with more tact.

While I regret & take responsibility for my flippant remarks, I do stand by my original position. I do not believe join-up is a force-free nor typically an ethical way to train. In emergencies? Maybe. But as a way to gain a horse’s trust? No. There are far more effective & gentle ways of accomplishing that goal that are founded in behavior analysis not an arbitrary concept.

That said, I want to be clear that I never to make anyone feel shamed or less-than. I sincerely apologize if that has ever been the case. While not an excuse, for context, I'm under a lot of stress with seemingly endless responsibilities & sometimes, my stress manifests inappropriately - for which I take responsibility. I am human & when discussing topics that I am passionate about, I don't always say the right thing. Regardless, I will strive to notice my tone & word choice to keep this from happening again. But it is also important to note that my disagreeing with & refuting a technique will inherently be, at the very least, uncomfortable to those on the opposing side. The goal is to encourage more consideration about how we interact with our horses rather than following the proverbial leader. That does not mean I dislike the people who practice methods with which I disagree. I know we are all trying our best to do right by our beloved animals.

However, I do take issue when methods/beliefs are founded in a concept that has no place in training in my eyes. Though never explicitly stated, the ideas that a horse needs a leader/to submit are founded in dominance theory & not supported by science. There are alternative methods for training that are supported by science & foster a partnership founded on trust in relational history — positive associations. Again, not the person, but the actions. I believe there is always room for growth & evolution. Everyone is allowed to change & shouldn’t fear retribution for doing so.

A final reminder that if you do take it upon yourself to seek out the video & posts I reference, to be kind. I know the individual who made them is coming from a place of defense for what they believe is right. Have compassion in disagreement. I am not always the example that I want to be & all I can do is promise you that I will strive to become a better one.

Hi guys!

In this week’s episode, I discuss a horse who seems to have no other issues but just won’t stand at the mounting block, answering if treats/food reinforcers lose their value or not, problem-solve about a horse who just won’t walk forward, & keeping a horse out of your space while leading!

Hi guys!

In this week’s episode, I continue the discussion on dominance theory in the horse world via answering your questions! I asked you guys what questions you have about conventional equestrian ideas that you must be the “Alpha,” “Lead Mare,” “the Dominant.” I disagree and so does the science. So, tune in to listen to me answer your questions & common questions regarding dominance theory, join up, & how training is possible without being the Alpha.

Hi guys!

In this week’s episode, I address the mistake I made when I was discussing mental health & medication in last week’s episode, a horse who yawns when saddled & moves away from the mounting block, a +R trained horse who kicks out & rushes his behaviors, a lease horse who refuses to jump, & an update on + exciting surprise about Azula!

Hi guys! This week’s episode is quite somber. In the last few days, we lost a mare who was very near & dear to us. She is the mother of our month old colt, Astro, but unfortunately suffered a freak colic. This episode is that story and where we're at now. Give it a listen & hug your ponies today.

Hello all(: This week's episode is more of an update on Zo's current status. I detail how she was feeling & acting before getting injected so as to explain why that is the route we chose to go. I also discuss a bit about how difficult it is to deal with the emotional aspect of having a horse going through something & feeling clueless as to how to help them. So tune in while you clean your car, house, room, or stalls during quarantine & kill some of that boredom!

With everything going on in the world right now, I thought it would be appropriate for this week’s episode to be a pseudo-conversation with a friend. Most people really bond over talking about relationships and advice. So that's exactly what I did this week! Hopefully this week’s episode will lighten some of the tension in your day & maybe you’ll even learn something new about relationships — you’ll learn about mine for sure haha! So tune in while you clean your car, house, room, or stalls during quarantine & kill some of that boredom!

Hey guys! On this week's episode, I delve into how & why I’m trying to convert Zoë to being ridden bridleless! Yes, bridleless, every little girls dream! Beyond that, I redact some statements I made in last Tuesday’s episode regarding equipment. I had a realization (of course right after I made the episode all about it lol) that maybe bitless just isn’t always the answer. So… are bits? Listen and hear me out lol it wasn’t easy to explain, but makes more sense than anything else I’ve heard!

In this week's episode, I discuss a small lil baby controversy that came up the day I recorded! It called into question my use of the Unbridled Guide. I go into detail why I'm using it, but more importantly, HOW I'm using it. Beyond the neck rope quandary, I address my opinions on controversial tack! Bits, Whips, Spurs, Saddles, Halfpads, Nosebands, Flashes & More lol so give the ol pod a listen to hear someone else's view on the industry's equipment. I think I have some pretty moderate views, but some are a lil bit left field.

This week's episode, I break down how I got my job, what my job is, the pros and the cons, and why making your passion your career isn't always a fairytale. I specifically talk about my current job, which is being an exercise writer/trainer of horses, but I feel like this topic can apply to any passion. I feel like it's super easy to get wrapped up in the idea that what you love should be your work, but I think there's more to consider than that and it doesn't always work that way for everyone! So... listen to me talk for an hour about things that I wish somebody had told me when I was considering getting into horses/YouTube/instagram/etc for work!

In this week's episode, I discuss in-depth my training ideology. I've finally reached a place, mentally, where I can analyze what happened to make me not want to work with horses & create a solution for it. Beyond that, I elaborate on this huge shift in training methodology that I feel is in the best interest of my horse as well as myself for once! I also discuss some issues in the horse world in terms of camaraderie & what we can do better.

Hi Guys! In this episode, I touch on a topic that's been weighing heavily on me for a few months now. I was undecided about what I was doing and something just didn't feel right. But, the decision was too big of an ask for me at the time, so I waited. Recently, I've been ready to answer those questions and begin to explore my thoughts. Of course, I'm talking about horse training (operantly in particular). I switched from -R to +R last year and it had crazy incredible impacts on my relationship with Zoë. But, I do think that it's time to give something else a try & see where we can go. I'm interested now in shifting my focus from which-quadrant-what-falls-under to how-does-my-horse-feel-about-this. It's a very small change in perspective and I will largely continue my work with +R, but hear me out. Givera lissen(:

This week's episode is still a bit heavy! I don't know why it seems to be such a prominent topic at the moment, but in this episode, I touch more on how to handle someone in your life with depression, how it affected my relationships, and what therapy is like. I also answered a few questions and advice inquiries from you guys!

This week's episode is a bit more serious in tone as I decided it was finally time to open up about some things that I've kept off the internet for a long time as well as a deep dive into what depression is like for me & where I've been mentally for some time now. This podcast has a bit of a heavier content load than usual, so if you are easily upset by discussions of opinions different than yours or by lower states of well-being, then maybe check back in for next week's episode!

In this week's episode, I discuss a few of the behavioral issues that I encountered with Mac, my RRP project. 

He was shut down, jumpy, and afraid, so instead of punishing for the undesirables, I changed the question and environment.

I offered more control to a horse who previously had none, and in doing so, worked through some very common behavioral problems without resorting to the normal means.

I focus on "girthy" horses, biting the halter, biting at people, and head/ear shyness.

Be sure to give it a listen and let me know what you think! Do note that I am an amateur, so take my explanations with a grain of salt! Best(: Let me know your thoughts & be sure to leave a positive review for me(:

In this week's episode, I detail my experience, thoughts, and acquired knowledge from an Alexandra Kurland clinic! Unfortunately, I didn't get to work with Mac as he & Zoë couldn't bear to be apart during the weekend, so Alex worked with Mac and I worked with Zo. Anywho, that's all the description you're getting, so tune into this week's episode, & don't forget to check out the videos from the clinic on my YouTube channel! Let me know your thoughts & be sure to leave a positive review for me(:

+R trainers often use clickers or a specific sound to “mark” a behavior.

The marker or bridge signal, bridges the gap from the behavior to the reinforcer. The click becomes a secondary reinforcer because the horse knows that his reward is coming. Trainers use bridge signals to make the training more precise and communicate information to the horse that the behavior he was performing at the time of the click earned him the reward & that that reward is on its way!

The use of a clicker tool or a tongue click (not to be confused with a “cluck” as for most horses that is a move-your-feet cue) is important for more complex behaviors. By using a bridge signal, you don’t have to try to feed the moment the behavior is offered. Doing so would be ineffective & unclear to the horse — especially with behaviors like piaffe, or trotting. The clicker buys the trainer time and keeps training clear.

This week's episode discusses the four quadrants of operant conditioning, positive/negative reinforcement/punishment (+R, -R, +P, -P).

I delve into what each of the four means and what it looks like in horsemanship & training. I hope you find this episode useful and fun! Be sure to tune in next week for the episode where I'll be discussing the purpose of the clicker.

For more explanation on the quadrants, check out my glossary page https://www.jetequitheory.com/positive-reinforcement/glossary and my resource page https://www.jetequitheory.com/positive-reinforcement! Let me know your thoughts & be sure to leave a positive review for me(:

Welcome!

I hope that you guys are as excited as I am to embark on this new platform's journey. I couldn't be more thrilled to finally be doing my own podcast. I'm not sure of it's future, but for now, I am here to share my journey as a horse trainer. Not in the traditional sense of the word, but instead the sense that every time I'm with my horses, I'm teaching them something new, and they are teaching me many "somethings new!"

I hope you guys will tune in to each week's episode. I'm aiming for a new release every Tuesday to pair nicely with new YouTube releases every Monday. I can't wait to dive in! Let me know your thoughts & be sure to leave a positive review for me(:
