Running on empty doesn’t make you a better horse professional — it just makes you burned out. In this episode, I talk about why boundaries and balance matter in the horse business, both for professionals and clients.
I share insights from my own experience and conversations with colleagues who are struggling with overwork, blurred client relationships, and the pressure to be “on” 24/7. We’ll look at:
Why setting expectations and policies up front is a game-changer.
How to value your time — not just in the saddle, but in all the unseen parts of your work.
The importance of saying no, delegating, and protecting your downtime.
Why clients also need boundaries and how respecting them helps everyone thrive.
Whether you’re a trainer, barn owner, or passionate rider, this episode is a reminder that boundaries aren’t selfish — they’re essential for long-term success, joy, and well-being in and out of the barn.
