1: Meet The Hosts- Stepping Back to Coming Back, What Horses Offer Humanity, Maturing as a Trainer

Welcome to the Fifth Gait Podcast:We have thrown around the idea of a podcast for years - but we finally made it happen, stuck in the truck together on a 10-hour road trip home from a horse show.Our passion is the Icelandic horse - and all aspects of the worldwide community that surrounds this breed. Here, we come together as equestrian professionals to share our hardest lessons, biggest wins and our future hopes in Icelandic horsemanship.Our conversations aim to educate, inspire and grow all people like us, who love Icelandic horses - from enthusiasts and amateurs, to trainers, competitors and field specialists.Today, we will be sharing with you our very first episode; where I (Carrie) interview my dear friend, colleague, and partner in these podcast adventures - Mackenzie Durbin. These questions dive deep into career origin stories, good ole shop talk, and an emphasis on training and real, day-to-day work. And finally, questions centered around the future of horsemanship and how we see the industry evolving. Please enjoy this episode, getting to know Mackenzie, and join us as we embark on this podcast Journey.YouTubeFacebookInstagram
