- A great podcast for horse owners!
I love the breadth of topics covered across the various episodes, which are themselves a balance of topical conversation and practical advice.

Shelley is curious and humble - interrogating each guest (in the nicest possible way) to maximise the information exchange each week.
I look forward to seeing... more

Australia2 years ago - One of my favourite podcasts
This is one of my favourite horse-related podcasts. It’s awesome learning from Shelley and Kat’s extensive knowledge and expertise, and their insightful interviews with such a broad range of guests. They have introduced me to more excellent horse people including Tami Elkayam, Nahshon Cook and Kerry M Thomas.
Highly recommended.
Apple Podcasts5Opal in the RoughAustralia2 years ago - Fabulous Information With Interesting Speakers
This is such a great podcast. Shelley and Kat are interesting and well spoken. They clearly discuss a wide range of topics that help to build better relationships between people and their horses. I love how honest and vulnerable they are when they share their own experiences. Lots to enjoy and top level guests also invited on the show regularly.
Apple Podcasts5Wood RidingsAustralia3 years ago - Great horsie podcast
Very informative, lots of great guests and an open minded, non judgmental approach to horse management.
Apple Podcasts5AnnamantAustralia3 years ago - Ok
Would be a good podcast if Shelly would stop talking over everyone & speaking in such a patronising know it all manner. Some interesting content, has potential to be excellent
