Mental health is everyone’s business
Not just because it is nearly World Mental Health Day. Or we are experiencing an 'unprecedented natural disaster'. I am writing this blog because I see, feel and hear speaking mental health is still taboo in 2020. Speaking up and sharing my own mental health strategies, inviting my online equestrian community to share, offering a safe space for a coffee and chat on world mental health day, raising funds for the Mental Health Foundation, is the equivalent to being put in quara

What Makes An Elite Coach?
Day 6: UK Coaching Week LIVE Questions to the Greats of Coaching – as UK Coaching Week 2020 is winding down, I pondered on the theme from UK Coaching - the elite coach Q & A.

The "Crazy" Ones
Day 5: UK Coaching Week Today is all about parents supporting coaches, hmm I thought. Let's do this Lisa style! "Here’s to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes… the ones who see things differently – they’re not fond of rules… You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can’t do is ignore them because they change things… they push the human race forward, and while some may see

The Equestrian Coach Superpower
Day 4: UK Coaching Week Coaches are vital for creating safe sport. From restriction easing and increasing social contact (restrictions lifting) to returning to regional lockdown and loss. What does the landscape today look like for coaches? Uncertain The impact of unpredictability, uncertainty and loss of: - life - social connections - business - jobs Is our collective grief. Yet I believe 2020 is also a necessary catalyst for change. Equestrian coaches, we have to pay attent

Coaches & Community
Day 3 UK Coaching Week: Communities Our Coaches Support As we reach the half way stage of the 2020 UK Coaching Week, today is all about #GreatCoaching coupled to the impact great coaches have on communities. We all know this. But very rarely do we take time out of our busy lives to appreciate the work all coaches do in our communities.

The Equestrian Coach & Change
UK Coaching Week Day 2 "I think the person who can't change his or her mind is dangerous" Catmull (2014) In horse sports; dressage, eventing, and show jumping the layers of self interest oppose change for the welfare of the horse. The lack of self-awareness of our self interest, fuels it even more. Once a sport feels like it has mastered the system, the sport typically becomes blind to its flaws. In horse sports, many who see the opportunity for optimal welfare for horses fea

From Inside Out
Today is the start of UK Coaching Week, a week in the UK we celebrate coaches. If you have read my ebook Horse Welfare From Inside Out you know how important 'walking the talk' is to me. I coach people to train horses. Creative horse trainers, made by Equitation Science. It is important to my core values we find the wins in life, every day. Why? It literally changes the wiring in our brain, altering our lens on how we see the world. As Henry Ford famously said; "If you thi
