Daily Strides Podcast for Equestrians
[Encore] Strides Revisited: 3 Things You Must Work on to Become a Better Rider (Originally Ep #1185)
Have you ever tried something during a lesson and nailed it. Only to fall flat the next time you rode on your own?!
In this episode, we’re revisiting a powerful conversation around confidence, communication, and the three essential elements of becoming a better rider: emotional, mental, and physical development.
Confidence isn’t something you magically have or don’t. It’s something you can build, and sometimes even borrow.
Whether you're retraining an OTTB, restarting after time out of the saddle, or simply trying to improve on your own, this episode will help you take stock of what’s really going on when things aren’t working.
Inside this episode:-
What it means to "borrow confidence", and why it works
-
Why mental clarity must go beyond “knowing the thing”
-
The emotional patterns that block physical progress
-
How to check your beliefs before you check your aids
-
Why your outside leg might not be doing what you think it’s doing...
