In the world of equine behaviour and training, there's a vast sea of information, research, and opinions that can sometimes make your head spin. It can be challenging to sift through it all and distinguish fact from fiction.

So, how do we navigate this?

We dive deep into the critical topics, exploring different perspectives in an effort to reach well-informed conclusions.

Our podcast is your guide to understanding and dissecting tricky, and potentially dangerous topics of equine behaviour and training. We approach these subjects with a commitment to science, compassion, and constructive dialogue.

In this episode we explore the profound impact of language on our emotional experiences and relationships. Drawing on cutting-edge research, we discuss how the words we use shape our perceptions of emotions, influence our interactions with horses, and affect our self-talk.

Learn practical tips for improving communication with your horse, enhancing your emotional well-being through positive self-talk, and understanding the intricate connection between language and emotion.

Join us as we dive into the fascinating world of language and its powerful role in building better relationships with both humans and horses.
