In this episode I sit at the Rove Hotel´s Podcast Studio in Dubai.

My first guest, Phoenix, has a convincing handshake, contagious humour and she is also a 3rd generation horse trainer from Brisbane, Australia. We share many unconventional ideas about emotional communication, horse characters, and herd handling. In this fun conversation we talk about the advantage of barefoot trimming, the pitfalls of training horses for other people, lead mares and lonely stallions, and about Polocross (that´s an Australian thing).

You can contact Phoenix through her 14k Instagram Toohey Equine Education @t.equine-education
