How to Get Your Confidence Back After a Break From Riding

Episode 3

Saturday, September 26, 2026 • Duration 21:16

Why can returning to riding feel so daunting, even when you really want to do it?

Whether you’ve had a few weeks away, taken time off after an injury or are returning after many years, you might find that one part of you is excited to ride while another part feels anxious or hesitant.

In this episode of Rider Confidence Rescue, Mind Coach and Anxiety Specialist Sam Shanks Husbands is joined by Victoria Sollitt, who brings the rider’s perspective to the conversation, and they explore why confidence can change after a break and how to return without putting pressure on yourself to pick up exactly where you left off.

They discuss why your rational mind and survival brain can pull you in different directions, how effective visualisation can help you prepare, and why the right support and a sensible plan can set both you and your horse up for success.

Victoria shares her experiences of returning after pregnancy, military deployments and injury, while Sam talks about coming back to riding after almost twenty years and what her horses and trainer taught her about making the return easier.

If you want to get back in the saddle but feel more nervous or hesitant than you expected, this episode is for you.

How to Stop Dwelling on Riding Mistakes

Episode 2

Saturday, September 26, 2026 • Duration 23:13

Why can one riding mistake stay with you for months or even years?

Perhaps something went wrong in a lesson, at a competition or while jumping, and ever since then you've found yourself hesitating, overthinking or trying desperately not to make the same mistake again.

In this episode of Rider Confidence Rescue, Mind Coach and Anxiety Specialist Sam Shanks Husbands is joined by Victoria Sollitt, who brings the rider’s perspective to the conversation, and they explore why mistakes can turn into fear, self criticism and unhelpful patterns, and why beating yourself up rarely helps you improve.

They discuss the difference between a fixed mindset and a growth mindset, why mistakes are part of learning and how curiosity, lightheartedness and a focus on solutions can help you move forward.

Victoria shares how one missed stride affected her confidence and changed the way she rode, while Sam explains what her horses and trainers taught her about responding to mistakes without becoming defensive or judging herself.

If one mistake has ever made you question your ability or feel that you're letting your horse down, this episode will help you see it differently.

Why Do I Take Riding Feedback So Personally?

Episode 1

Monday, September 21, 2026 • Duration 18:54

Why does riding feedback sometimes feel so personal?

If every lesson, clinic, dressage score sheet or correction leaves you wondering whether you're good enough, you're not alone.

In this episode of Rider Confidence Rescue, Mind Coach and Anxiety Specialist Sam Shanks Husbands is joined by Victoria Sollitt, who brings the rider’s perspective to the conversation, and they explore why correction can feel like criticism, why your brain reacts that way, and how changing the meaning you give to feedback can transform both your confidence and your riding.

Victoria shares how she stopped taking correction personally and learned to use it as a tool for improvement, while Sam explains why becoming curious instead of defensive made riding more enjoyable and helped her progress more quickly.

If you've ever left a lesson, clinic or competition feeling discouraged by feedback, this episode is for you.
