  • Dear Horse World, It’s Karl Cook: From Olympic Athlete to Mad Scientist in the Saddle
    Every rider knows the feeling: you're in the middle of a training session and something just doesn't click. There's a disconnect, not just with your horse, but with your approach and mindset. It's more than just a riding issue—it goes deeper, reflecting the challenges and complexities of the equestrian sport. Today, we've got a guest who isn't afraid to challenge the status quo. Karl Cook is an Olympic medalist and top-level showjumper who brings innovation and blunt honesty to the equestrian world. In this episode, we'll delve into Karl's unique viewpoints on horse care, training, and the tools and technology that are changing how we approach the sport. Known for his blunt and innovative style, Karl discusses the importance of focusing on fundamentals, avoiding quick fixes, and the tendency of horse owners to frame their horses as inherently unique to evade responsibility. He talks about his latest projects, including the development of new bits, bridles, and sensors to improve training accuracy. Karl emphasizes the value of actionable data over mere feelings, highlighting a balance between subjective feel and objective information. He also discusses how simple yet disciplined adjustments can significantly impact riding performance and horse care. Karl dives into his methods for integrating new horses into his program and the subtle differences in their management, stressing the importance of treating horses well, maintaining consistency, and the role of structured, data-informed practices. He advocates for a straightforward, action-oriented approach to overcome challenges and promote continuous improvement in both riders and horses. ------------------------------------- Learn more from Karl Cook and follow him on social media: 📱www.instagram.com/mrtankcook/ And you can follow us on instagram too!

  • Dear Horse World, It’s Cassandra Ogier: The Era of Horsewomanship & the Power of the Lead Mare
    Every horse owner knows the feeling: walking through the field, chasing after a horse that won’t come, sensing that disconnect not just with the horse, but with life. It’s more than just a training issue—it’s a reflection of something deeper, a desire for connection and harmony that feels out of reach. Being around horses is about more than riding—it’s about finding peace, balance, and a deeper bond. Many people long for that connection, not only with their horses but also with themselves, especially in a world full of stress and constant "doing." But how do you get there when the path feels unclear? In this episode, we sit down with Cassandra Ogier—founder of The Reflective Horse and co-founder of She Herd Power—to explore how horses reflect not just our actions, but our internal state. Cassandra’s groundbreaking work in Somatic Riding and Equine Guided Empowerment helps riders regulate their nervous systems, claim space without force, and embody the kind of grounded leadership horses naturally trust. This isn’t about fixing your horse—it’s about remembering yourself. Cassandra shares powerful, practical tools to shift from anxious doing to embodied being.  From simple grounding techniques to exercises in space claiming and energetic awareness, this episode offers a roadmap to true connection—moment to moment, breath by breath. Whether you’re navigating tension in the saddle or in your life, this conversation is an invitation to slow down, listen in, and lead like a mare: calm, congruent, and unapologetically present.  Learn more about Cassandra and her work with The Reflective Horse here:  👉 https://www.thereflectivehorse.com/ 👉 https://www.instagram.com/thereflectivehorse    And She Herd Power here: https://sheherdpower.squarespace.com/  And you can follow us on instagram too!

  • Dear Horse World, It’s Anne Kursinski: How to Build Feel and Ride with Olympic-Level Clarity (Sponsored by YETI)
    Every rider knows the feeling. That moment when you and your horse are so in sync, it’s like you’re breathing together. No pulling, no gripping, no second-guessing—just presence, softness, and trust. But then there are the other days. You overthink. Your horse resists. Your leg tenses, your hands take instead of give. The connection frays. The confidence dips. And you wonder… Why does it feel so hard? According to five-time Olympian Anne Kursinski, it’s not about strength. It’s not even about talent. It’s about feel—and feel is something you can learn. In this intimate, wisdom-packed conversation, Anne opens up about the journey behind her Olympic career: the mentors who doubted her, the tough moments that shaped her, and the deep presence she brings to every ride, clinic, and teaching moment today. We explore: Why “talent” is the most overrated concept in riding How to develop feel by listening to your horse—on the ground and in the saddle The difference between pressure and micromanagement How your energy, focus, and self-worth affect your horse’s performance Why presence—not perfection—is the real path to progress Whether you're in the barn before sunrise or riding once a week between life’s responsibilities, Anne’s insights will help you ride with more clarity, softness, and purpose. Because connection isn’t something you force—it’s something you create. ------------------------------------- Learn more from Anne Kursinski and follow her on social media:  https://www.annekursinski.com/ www.instagram.com/annekursinski www.facebook.com/AnneKursinski www.youtube.com/@ridingandjumpingmentor9453/videos And you can follow us on instagram too!
