On this episode of Gallop & Gossip, we got real about burnout—what it feels like, how it sneaks up on you, and why setting small goals can make all the difference. We talked about the mental and financial grind of chasing big dreams, the importance of recharging for both you and your horses, and why sticking together and sending a positive message really matters. If you’re pushing through tough times, remember: take care of yourself, lean on your support network, and never lose sight of why you started. Stay resilient and keep chasing those dreams!

In this episode, hosts Cheyenne and Maria dive headfirst into the realities and frustrations of drug testing in the rodeo and horse racing worlds. Forget the polished PR version—Cheyenne and Maria break down what really goes on behind the scenes, from the strict and sometimes illogical regulations at iconic events like the Calgary Stampede to the everyday challenges riders face just trying to care for their horses on the road. They share personal stories, discuss how overregulation is shifting the focus away from actual horse welfare, and question whether the legal system is overtaking fair play in the sport. If you want a candid, unfiltered conversation about the balance between competitive integrity, safety, and common sense in the equestrian world, this is one episode you won’t want to miss. Grab your boots—the truth is messier than you think!
