Self-Pressure

In this week's podcast EquiTeam's Liz Daniels and Liz Somerville chat about self-pressure, what it means to them and how it impacts their riding. Liz Somerville shares how her recent journey to the BD regionals was paved with negative self doubt surrounding her own ability, and how the feeling of not wanting to let her horse down almost prevented her from competing at all. From being competitive, to moving the goal posts the pair really open up as EquiTeam coach Liz Daniels talks about the pressure she feels when competing and how she sees the effect of self-pressure on people that she coaches. This is a podcast that we know many equestrians will relate to, with the take home messaging of #bekind.
