35 | The More You Let Go, The More They Come Back — with Rachel from My Horse Willow

mardi 8 septembre 2026 • Durée 47:26

What happens when we stop trying to control every moment with our horses… and give them more space to have a voice?

In this very special episode of The Essence of Liberty Podcast, I’m joined by my very first guest: Rachel from My Horse Willow.

What has always stood out to me about Rachel and her horses, Willow and Oakley, is the sheer amount of fun they have together. Her horses have spark. They play, they offer, they express themselves — and there is a beautiful sense that they genuinely want to be part of what she is doing.

In our conversation, we talk about liberty, letting go of control, making mistakes, regulating our own emotions, giving our horses the benefit of the doubt, and why we sometimes need to stop worrying about getting everything “right” and remember why we fell in love with horses in the first place.

Rachel also shares how liberty helped her reconnect with Willow during a time when she found herself micromanaging her movement — and the beautiful lesson that followed:

The more you let go, the more they come back.

Because perhaps the goal isn’t simply to have a horse who does what we ask. Perhaps it’s to create a relationship where our horse genuinely wants to join us.

You can follow Rachel and her beautiful horses Willow & Oakley on Facebook and Instagram as @myhorsewillow.

34 | Self-Carriage at Liberty: 4 Exercises That Change Everything

mardi 4 août 2026 • Durée 21:28

What if self-carriage has very little to do with holding your horse in a frame?

In this episode, I explore what self-carriage really means and why liberty offers one of the most honest ways to develop it. We dive into the surprising role of body awareness, proprioception and the horse's brain, along with four of my favourite liberty exercises for helping horses become lighter, more balanced and truly carry themselves.

I also share a personal story from my early dressage days that completely changed the way I think about self-carriage.

If you've ever wanted your horse to move with more balance, confidence and expression, this episode is for you.

Also, important announcement: Lifetime Access to the Academy is ending August 31st 2026.

After three incredible years and a huge expansion currently underway, lifetime access will be closing. If you've been thinking about joining the Academy, this is your final opportunity to become one of our founding lifetime members and receive all future content and updates with a single payment.

33 | The Power of Intentional Touch: A Simple Change That Transforms Your Horse

mardi 28 juillet 2026 • Durée 21:56

Many of us touch our horses without ever stopping to ask one simple question:

Does my horse actually enjoy this?

In this episode, I explore the power of intentional touch and how becoming more aware of your horse's feedback can completely transform your relationship. We discuss why many common forms of affection are simply tolerated, how to recognise the types of touch your horse genuinely enjoys, and why helping your horse release tension creates the perfect foundation for connection, learning, and liberty training.

If you want a calmer, more connected horse, this episode is for you.

32 | The Incredible Physical & Emotional Benefits of Spanish Walk

mardi 6 janvier 2026 • Durée 14:10

Welcome to the very first episode of 2026 ✨

In this episode of The Essence of Liberty Podcast, I explore the Spanish walk through a softer and more reflective lens. Rather than focusing on how it looks from the outside, this conversation is about what the movement creates on the inside - within the horse’s body, balance, awareness, and sense of self 🐴

We touch on how the Spanish walk is often approached, how intention and subtlety can completely change its effect, and why slowing things down can open the door to deeper physical and emotional shifts. This episode invites you to look beyond the surface of an exercise and to consider how posture, presence, and internal focus can quietly reshape the way a horse moves and feels💛

There is also a gentle exploration of how the feeling behind the Spanish walk can begin to influence other work, not by adding more effort or bigger movement, but by encouraging lightness, preparation, and ease ✨

This episode is an invitation to become curious, to soften expectations, and to notice what becomes possible when movement is guided by feel rather than force 🌱

31 | Setting Liberty Goals With A Liberty Mindset

mardi 30 décembre 2025 • Durée 19:29

In this episode of The Essence of Liberty Podcast, I invite you to slow down and reflect on what progress truly means in liberty training as we move toward a new year.

This episode isn’t about setting goals around what your horse should be able to do by a certain time. Instead, it’s about connection, clarity, and alignment - and how shifting your focus away from pressure can completely change the way both you and your horse feel in the training.

I guide you through a series of reflective questions designed to help you better understand where you are right now, how your horse may be experiencing your sessions, and what might be asking to shift beneath the surface. These reflections are simple, but powerful, and they offer a different way of approaching growth without rushing, forcing, or creating expectations that don’t serve the partnership.

This episode is especially for you if you’ve ever felt unsure, stuck, or quietly questioning whether there’s a gentler, more intuitive way forward - one that honours your horse’s emotional experience just as much as the physical work.

I also share details about a limited-time opportunity to join the Essence of Liberty Online Academy, why it was intentionally designed to remove pressure from learning, and how it supports both horses and humans on their liberty journey ✨

I encourage you to grab a pen and paper, settle in, and allow this episode to help you reconnect with what truly matters as you step into the year ahead.🌿

30 | Feeling stuck, uninspired and unmotivated? Here are 5 strategies to find the spark again!

mardi 23 décembre 2025 • Durée 27:35

In this episode of The Essence of Liberty Podcast, I talk about what to do when you’re feeling stuck, uninspired, or unmotivated with your horse - and why this is a completely normal part of the journey.

I share gentle, practical strategies to help you reconnect with your why, take the pressure off progress, and find your spark again without guilt or force. We talk about why horses aren’t “going to waste,” how to check in with how your horse is really feeling, and why sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is slow down, learn something new, or simply take a break.

This episode is an invitation to be kinder to yourself, trust your horse, and remember that liberty is about connection, curiosity, and play - not constant achievement.

If things have been feeling a bit heavy or uninspired lately, this episode offers a gentle reset 💛

vendredi 19 décembre 2025 • Durée 23:05

Welcome to a Special Episode of The Essence of Liberty Podcast

In this episode, I take a deep dive into The Essence of Liberty Online Academy—what it is, why it exists, and how it can completely transform the way you relate to and train your horse.

29 | Managing Weight & Laminitis While Using Positive Reinforcement

lundi 15 décembre 2025 • Durée 20:49

In this episode of The Essence of Liberty Podcast, I wanted to have an honest conversation about something that so many horse owners quietly worry about. How do we support a horse who gains weight easily or is prone to laminitis while still using positive reinforcement and food rewards 🍎

There is so much conflicting advice out there and it can feel overwhelming. In this episode I talk about why the real foundation for healthy weight management begins in your horse’s lifestyle and environment, not in the training sessions themselves. We explore simple and realistic ways to encourage more movement, how a very easy version of a track system can make a huge difference, and how to choose food rewards that support rather than hinder your horse’s health.

I also share why calmness around food is essential and how the foundations we build with positive reinforcement can actually help your horse feel safer, more relaxed and more secure about food in daily life.

My hope is that this episode brings you clarity and a sense of relief if you have ever felt unsure about using treats with an easy keeper or a horse who has metabolic concerns.

And keep an eye out because our Christmas and New Year offers for the Essence of Liberty Academy will be arriving very soon. I cannot wait to share them with you 🎀

28 | The Fascinating Link Between Posture, Collection & Emotions

mardi 9 décembre 2025 • Durée 12:12

In this episode of The Essence of Liberty Podcast, I explore one of my favourite topics - the way a horse’s emotions and posture influence one another. We’re all used to reading a horse’s body language, but there’s a much deeper connection between how they feel and how they move, especially when it comes to collection and confident expression.

I also touch on the idea that posture might not just reflect emotion, but actually shape it - a concept we see in human studies and one I’ve noticed hints of in my own liberty work. It leads to some really interesting moments where a shift in movement seems to awaken motivation, playfulness, or even a little “show-off” energy.

This episode is a short, thought-provoking look at how emotional states and physical posture intertwine, and how gentle, collaborative training can bring out the most authentic, beautiful expressions in our horses✨

27 | Cone Exercise - Transitions

mardi 2 décembre 2025 • Durée 15:55

In this episode of The Essence of Liberty Podcast, I’m sharing another favourite cone exercise - this time all about transitions! It’s a beautifully simple setup, but it has a remarkable way of bringing more precision, clarity, and responsiveness into your liberty sessions.

I talk about why transitions are such an important foundation for posture, balance, and connection, and how using a cone pattern can help you think ahead, time your questions more intentionally, and create a horse who genuinely wants to offer energy. I also touch on a common trap many of us fall into with transitions. This exercise builds on last month’s Distance by Destination episode, so if you enjoyed that one, you’ll love exploring this next step ✨
