EP 52: A Happy Barn Starts with Good Leadership

Chelsea cantering Eddie bridleless

When you walk into a barn, can you sense the overall energy of the place? Are the horses happy? Is the barn clean and tidy. How are you greeted by the staff? All of these details are driven by one thing… the barn manager. Good energy in a barn starts with good leadership and works its way down to the tiniest of elements – and creatures. 

My guest today is Chelsea Canedy of Canedy Horsemanship & Performance in Wales, Maine. Chelsea’s story will, in some ways, sound familiar to many of you, but what changed her trajectory as a horse professional and barn owner, is intriguing. In commercial boarding barns, keeping a diverse group of horses and riders happy can be challenging, but happiness starts within. Listen in!

EP 50: Takeaways from a Clinic with Tik Maynard

I’m not a beginner rider, I just feel like one.

-Helena

There are so many things that I cannot do in the saddle, and my jerkbrain tends to focus on the gaps in my riding repertoire instead of my actual skills, which aren’t all that bad.

Still, when I’m around talented riders, I feel like such a hack. And yet, here I am, bringing along a young Thoroughbred practically by myself. The only thing stopping me from being one of those talented riders I so admire, is me. Well, my jerkbrain.

Last weekend, I had the pleasure of hosting Tik Maynard for a clinic at a farm nearby. A friend of mine owns the stable where we held the clinic, so we hosted the event together. I put it together, got the clinician, promoted it, organized all of the entries and registrations, and my friend turned her stable into a magical, welcoming place. It was great!

Of course, Tik Maynard is a quality human being. You sorta need to be if you’re going to convince horses to be awesome… and he does that without even thinking about it. Do you want to know why Tik has such a powerful and effective influence on the horses he trains?

It’s because he thinks he does.  Listen in!

EP 49: Frustrations

When you finally get your horses home, there is no other feeling like it. Looking out your window and seeing your favorite creatures enjoying life under your care is one of THE most gratifying experiences for a horse lover. 

But there’s a flip side. Happy Horsekeeping isn’t as easy as it sometimes seems. While we can design our barns, yards, and turnout to keep our horses safe, feed them the best hay and grains, and provide a low-stress environment for them, there are times when that’s still not enough. Listen in!
