  • If only the whole equestrian world was like this podcast!

    Hands down my favourite podcast on the internet - I really look forward to every episode. Miri & Rhi aspire to be the best horse owners & advocates they can. For a while I felt a bit lost in the equestrian world and felt my views aligned mostly with a Swedish/natural horsemanship approach which isn’t common practise in the UK and sometimes scoffed at by more traditional equestrians. This podcast bridges the gap between the horse first approach and still being involved in competitions or having g... more

  • So informative and friendly

    Absolutely brilliant podcast, I don’t have my own horse but would love one in the future. I have learnt so much from Miri and Rhi and have so much more confidence in proceeding in the way that feels right for me and knowing what is better for horses! It’s also really friendly and relatable and I never want it to stop - can’t wait to listen to each episode! Well done to you both 🙌🏼🙌🏼💜💜

  • Great podcast!

    Being new to owning horses and feeling like the more traditional approaches of horsemanship did not sit well with me I was feeling slightly alone on my journey and a bit lost not feeling secure on my views. This podcast has reassured me that listening to your horse is the only way to have a true partnership with them and has opened up a world of knowledge and other ways of supporting my horses. It is informative but relatable and delivers practical helpful tips for your daily horse life!

  • Hits the right stride!

    This podcast is a real gem. The hosts are warm, relatable and easy to listen to - it feels like you’re part of the conversation and not just a listener. The episodes flow nicely and the content is a great balance of informative vs conversational. I’m personally enjoying listening when driving to and from the yard. In a world where sometimes you can feel very alone despite being surrounded by people, this is a comforting and engaging space. I’d recommend it to anyone in the equestrian community -... more
