Season 3: Episode 2- Permission to Feel: What the Equestrian World Often Misses

In this honest and heartfelt episode, hosts Lisa Weiss, LCSW, and Brianna Hammerman, LPC, explore the emotional realities of being an equestrian — from the pressure to perform to the quiet mental hurdles riders often face alone. With support from Rylee, who brings her own perspective to the conversation and has been helping behind the scenes, the team dives into topics like community, vulnerability, cognitive distortions, and the importance of self-care. Whether you’re chasing ribbons or just trying to stay connected to the joy of riding, this episode is a reminder that your feelings matter — and you’re not in this alone,
