Life with horses, equine therapy & new opportunities

Lately, I’ve found myself in a familiar space — somewhere between certainty and curiosity.   I was all set to geld my young Tulara Warmblood colt in two weeks. It felt like the next logical step. But then… I paused. Because this colt? He’s something special. He’s soft. Steady. Incredibly chill by nature. He’s shown me calmness, connection, and curiosity that feels rare, especially in a young fellow. And so now, I’m rethinking it. Anyone…

6 health benefits of horses

That contribute to your better health. Anyone who has ever swung a leg over a horse, taken hold of the reins, and ventured into the great outdoors knows the feeling. The sense of freedom, connection, and sheer joy that comes from being astride a horse is like no other. The earthy scent of hay, the crisp country air, and the rhythmic sound of hooves against the ground create an experience that is both grounding and…

3 gentle permission slips to simplify your equine habits and show yourself grace

Caring for our horses is a labour of love, but it can also feel overwhelming at times. From managing feed routines and tack cleaning to training schedules and paddock upkeep, there’s always something demanding our attention.  And that doesn’t include dealing with unexpected vet situations, living through extreme weather events or factoring in the rest of lives either right?! But what if we gave ourselves permission to do things differently—to simplify, take a breath, and…

Have I failed? Hiddy and Co Horses

Have I failed?

Six weeks ago I got kicked by a horse. Hard. I was unsure if I’d seriously damaged my leg - especially my reconstructed knee. A few weeks later, after taking it especially carefully, I had a big fall off one too.  The pain has been immense. And pain has a funny way of clouding our minds, our energy. Of course, I did what most of us do and kept gently moving forward. My family needed…

Menopause. It’s a profound transition. Busy Mums Slow Down™ Steps To Success

The discussion surrounding menopause often arises in the late 40s and early 50s for most women, but I firmly believe that awareness should begin much much earlier, in our 30s or even before that. As women, we carry numerous responsibilities and face countless challenges throughout our lives. From pursuing careers to navigating the joys and complexities of motherhood, we often find ourselves stretched thin, juggling multiple roles and priorities. However, amongst the hustle and bustle…
