In this solo episode, I talk about the "Empty Stall"...

Owning horses is FUN, don't get me wrong. But, when things happen to them, it is down right awful. Being that they cannot tell us whats wrong or when they need help, we always have to make the decisions for them. That is one of the hardest things to do as a horse owner.

I have been through many losses in my 25+ years of owning horses. Ive also had MULTIPLE visits to major vet clinics. Most recently, I had to send my best buddy to a clinic for a few days and let me tell you....the barn is quiet. It's eerily uncomfortable without him here.

Take a listen to this episode...its a tough one. But a good one.

Share your thoughts too! I'd love to hear your stories.

I have been showing in the same classes as Sarah for the last few years. I always thought she was a GORG trust fund baby that paid $1mil for her horse and kept it in training...

BOY was I wrong! After getting to know her better last year, she unveiled her story...and she does that during our podcast.

You're going to be surprised as to what is behind that stunning Red Hair.

Shes super smart- A SCIENTIST!!- and has gone through a lot of things that would wipe the smile off your face.

But, not Sarah! She is always smiling and has the most incredible outlook on life and horses.

Enjoy!

Don't forget about our SPONSOR of this podcast:

Selling horses is NOT for the faint of heart...especially ON-LINE!

Jenna Seppa of Seppa's Equine Solutions has been marketing horses online for a little over a year now. She's always been a horse girl, and she currently shows APHA horses with Julie and Allan Schmidt, so she GETS it.

But, I had to find out what it's like dealing with all of the "Karen's" (sorry if you're name is Karen...its not personal) out there. How does she handle the tire kickers?! The crazy owners that think their horse is worth $1 Mil and its not even broke!? What is the market doing!?

I have so many questions ;)

Plus, she's a mom, a wife, and witty AF.

She owned and successfully showed one of the winningest mares in AQHA history...

Her dad is a judge and trainer...

...plus, he came out a few years ago.

This young lady has some incredible stories to tell!! She has overcome a lot of obstacles to gain the trophies that she has won and it didnt come without tenacity and persistance to be the best.

I have always admired how Ellexxah was different- in such a cool way...she never seemed to care what others had to say in front of her or behind her back. That has seemingly shaped her into an incredible young lady!!

ALSO- we have our first SPONSOR!!!!

If you don't laugh during this episode, this podcast isn't for you.

Craig Cunningham is:

1. Stunning to look at (I was so lucky to stare at him for an hour...creepy?)

2. A HUGE part of the Pro Horseman Academy

3. An accomplished Amateur exhibitor

4. HYSTERICALLY funny!

He and I talk about why horse girls are soooo attracted to horse trainers, he wants to know if its a chemical thing or what!? And he declared that if there were to be another World War, the L3 Amateur Showmanship girls (and we can include Eric Mendrysa + Dan Carlson) would EASILY be able to handle the front lines and take down any opposing army,

Also, we do a deep dive into what ACTUALLY happens at the Pro Horseman Academy. I had so many questions as to what concerns our beloved trainers have and what types of things they go over during that workshop. You'll be amazed to hear what he has to say.

Finally, we giggle and wheeze 5000x during this podcast and I hope you do too!

Text the show! I absolutely LOVE your feedback.

GET INVOLVED.

There, I said it. And I'll say it again. The AQHA Convention is all about listening to its members and making thoroughly thought-out decisions on how to improve the organization and enhance the member experience.

I am on the Amateur Committee and have been to the convention 2x. I have been blown away each time I am there...not ONLY do we vote on rule change proposals, but we hear from so many different types of people on how to make being a member of AQHA better.

Here is my short and sweet overview of the AQHA Convention :)

THE Lindsey James took time out of her incredibly busy schedule to chat with me about her rise to FAME in the fashion industry.

We have all admired her show clothing designs for the past 20 years, and now she has begun designing for some of the most famous people in the WORLD!!

Not only is she talented, but she is unbelievably humble and just a crazy horse girl like the rest of us.

From how she got her first pony to working with Beyonce...what a wild ride, LITERALLY. I had so so much fun talking with her and I hope you all love hearing her story.

I couldn't get enough of her and now I want to hop on a plane and go hang out with her and all of her baby horses in California.

Make sure you go follow her on social media: @lindseyjamesshowclothing
