EP241: You Don't Have to Feel Bad

In this episode I talk about a disturbing situation where some professionals are actively making students feel bad about themselves in the name of caring about horses. I’ll share my thoughts and how you can avoid falling into this trap. About the Host:Karen Rohlf, author and creator of Dressage Naturally, is an internationally recognized clinician who is changing the equestrian educational paradigm. She teaches students of all disciplines and levels from around the world in her clinics and the Dressage Naturally virtual programs. Karen is well known for training horses with a priority on partnership, a student-empowering approach to teaching, and a positive and balanced point of view. She believes in getting to the heart of our mental, emotional, and physical partnership with our horses by bringing together the best of the worlds of dressage and partnership-based training.  Karen’s passion for teaching extends beyond horse training. Her For The Love Of The Horse: Transform Your Business program is a result of her commitment to helping heart-centered equine professionals thrive so that horses may have a happier life in this industry.  Resource Links: Karen Rohlf’s Course: Sweet Spot of Healthy Biomechanics: https://go.dressagenaturally.net/sweet-spot-course How To Create A Happy Athlete course: https://go.dressagenaturally.net/hatsDiscount code: HATS100 to save $100 Private Consult: https://karenrohlf.as.me/schedule/d1232333/appointment/1513707/calendar/any?appointmentTypeIds[]=1513707 The Dressage Naturally Book+Video: https://shop.dressagenaturally.net/collections/home-page-featured/products/book-dvdKaren Rohlf’s Dressage Naturally VIDEO CLASSROOM: https://dnc.dressagenaturally.net/ Ask a question for the pod: https://www.speakpipe.com/AskKarenAnything Get 3 free training videos: https://dressagenaturally.net/free-dressage-training-videos/ Course: Habits For Excellent Horsemanship: https://dressagenaturally.net/habits. Program for Professionals: TYB Action & Support Group: https://dressagenatural.samcart.com/products/action-and-support-group-tyb/ Join the conversation in our Dressage Naturally Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/DressageNaturallyLand  Thanks so much for listening to our podcast!
