Hi don’t worry you will get a horse someday it just takes time just keep dreaming big,working hard and never give up! You will get the right horse I know it😉

Hi! I just started listening to this podcast recently and it’s great! I would also like some tips on, where to start when wanting horse.for example: where to rent stalls, or getting land, buying horses, supply’s (things you need), care, etc. I have always wanted to own a horse but I feel I might never get one 😢, any tips will help!💗

My pony will make me nervous when she is nervous so then I am afraid to ride and don’t know what to do, PLEASE HELP!!!!!

I am a big fan of this podcast and I listen to it a lot. That said and with the greatest respect, the most recent podcast, Frustration Dissolves, with two guests, was not what I was expecting. In my opinion this specific podcast sounds like a commercial for the actual subscription training program. Really felt like marketing to me. That was disappointing because I was looking forward to more excellent content. I hope the future podcasts will go back to more content and less advertising. Thank you!

I’m so glad I found this podcast. I’m new to the horse world and I’m trying hard not to cause my horse undue stress because I’m so green. Using the advice learned here I’ve made great strides with my new best friend.

This podcast has helped me a lot. I am trying to to train my own horse for the first time. Thank you Stacy!!!

I’m only on season 7—but this podcast has been just what I needed. Episode 86-The Challenge of Change, could have been written specifically for me. I’m dealing with an aging body, a 24 year old mare, who has been a challenge for the 10 years I’ve owned her, and a recent fall that made me question whether I should ever ride again. I’ve gone through all the thought processes mentioned in this discussion—realizing the need for change, seeking the help of a professional, working through some basic training exercises and taking it slow. The journey isn’t over, but Stacey’s podcast is certainly helping me to realize I am not alone in this phase, and there is still so much to learn. Thank-you, Stacy!

Valuable content, well-organized, easy to understand — just excellent

I like podcasts but this one is my absolute favorite. Stacy is generous with her knowledge and practice. You can learn so much! Thank you Stacy for teaching us how to successfully train, ride, enjoy and LOVE our horses the way they deserve. 👍🥰🐴

Hey Stacy my horse Rt is skittish oh water. But I ride across rivers a lot. Please help!

This podcast helped renew my interest in riding more and learning more. The show and the information have definitely shifted and grown over the years but I find the concepts and the understanding of the horses perspective amazing.

I started at the beginning of your podcast journey a little over a week ago and I’m already on session #31. I’m also watching your training sessions from Jac. I can’t thank you enough for your expertise. I really connect with your teaching method and love the way you can compare horse situations to child like behaviors. I have a new found passion for wanting to start working with my horse on the basics and seeing how much we can grow. Thank you so much for sharing your passion and teaching us your methods! ♥️

Thank you for taking the time to put this all together. It is making my life, my children’s lives and our horses lives so much better!

Llooooovvvveeee iiitttttt ssssooooooo much!!

I found you after Warwick’s podcast and I am so happy I did. I love your detailed explanations and I just wish I had found you sooner. I bought one of your books it has been super helpful and I just appreciate all you share. Thank you!

I absolutely LOVE Stacy Westfall. She has so much insight that she willingly shares. Stacy is smart, funny, creative, and full of understanding for both horses and people. She’s not afraid of being vulnerable. She’s honest and looks at issues and topics from every possible angle. This podcast gives you so much information and so many tools to put into practice- right now. This is THE best podcast about training horses there is.

Ethical, wise, honest, and easy to understand. I’ve worked with a few trainers over the years and Stacy is always a solid reference for any level rider/trainer/horse owner. Many tools in my toolbox are bits of wisdom Stacy has shared. It is so wonderful that this level of horse knowledge is available to anyone willing to listen. In person training and years of experience to learn what she offers costs crazy amounts of time and a lot of money. Many adults are loving horse owners who don’t have extra money and/or time. It’s a real treasure that all folks- beginners or professionals, rich and not- to have access to her podcast. Love you Stacy!

I love, love, love to hear a professional endorsement for multi discipline training. I love the description by Stacy that it is similar to being multi lingual and that it helps balance the horses mind, and I would say heart.

Stacy is fantastic! Love the podcast

I Love this podcast so much. I am starting from the very beginning and going through each episode and it’s really helping me to understand my horses . I am not the best or most experienced rider but I love to trail ride my two horses and I am learning so much just listening to Stacy. Thank you Stacy for all of your wisdom and for sharing it with us:) - Mary Lou in California

As a horse trainer in the very early stages of my business I’m incredibly grateful for these podcasts. I am learning so much more in depth info on how and why things work. I recommend my clients listen to these too. Thank you for sharing your hard earned wisdom and passing it on. BTW I love the big ball bouncing idea to get the horse used to something bouncing beside them. Super creative and fun!

LOVED, LOVED, LOVED this episode! I actually learn and enjoy each episode but you really struck a chord in this one. I’m not alone, you put those thoughts in my head to words and simply hearing them made me take a deep sigh of relief. Licking and chewing right now 😂

This podcast has completely changed my perceptions and attitude when I go out to work with my horses. A million times thank you for doing this, Stacy!

Thank you Stacy for answering my questions on your podcast. Your advice is so spot on and helpful for me and my horses!

Listen to Stacy❤️🥰💯 She definitely has her act together 😇 I can’t believe the help she has given me for my nurse mare foal that I’ve had for almost 5 years. Wilda was from the same group Presto came from. I LOVE watching his progress🤗🥰 keep up your smart, amazing, kind words of wisdom🙌😇

Every topic is filled with helpful information you can use right now no matter what your level, experience, discipline or background. Stacy managed to motivate, support and inspire you to be the best version of yourself while achieving the most with your horse. And bonus, everything can be applied to other aspects of your life as well. I love that she shares her personal stories, challenges and experiences so you know she’s not “do as I say, not as I do” type teaching. She’s been there, done that, and can help you get there or avoid mistakes too. Never too long, or too complicated or too much of the same thing. Do yourself a favor and start listening, it’s the best investment you can give yourself and your horse.

This podcast has been super helpful. Stacy Westfall addresses common concerns in a way that helps you understand and address them in your horse. Really useful information and so grateful that it’s being put out there for free. Thanks!

I stumbled onto this podcast without knowing much about Stacy Westfall. She shares her knowledge and love of horses and keeps it real. If you are training your own horses you will love this podcast. Thanks Stacy for your vulnerability and kindness.

Love this podcast. It’s practical, realistic, and comes in bite-sized episodes. Best podcast for any rider of any discipline.

This is my first time listening to your podcasts. I will go back and listen to more. My first thought when you said you were changing the name yourself is that you are freaking amazing that you have sooo many talents. It comes down to confidence in yourself. If it’s not successful, we will still come find you where ever you are. It’s worth the effort. The wisdom you share is very valuable! Since I haven’t listened to past podcasts, you may already have addressed this but I am very interested in the mental thought processes or maybe better put - mental connection versus physical.

I really enjoyed your podcast and look forward to listening to lots more. I think it’s fantastic that you are going to make the changes to the podcast yourself. That little bit of fear is worth the final outcome, good or bad-and yes we will find you if we get lost in the process!! My husband passed away two years ago and I can totally relate to the fear of change. The farm is now up to me to run and I’ve had to make changes just to make things easier for one person to do. I often tackle things I’ve never done before simply because I can’t pay for help and I can’t constantly ask for help. You don’t want to burn out your friends! I’m getting pretty well versed on the inner workings of my automatic waterers and my outdoor wood stove, among many other things. The sense of accomplishment and confidence that comes from doing all this myself is totally worth the fear of getting started. This sets me to thinking about my horses and that I should be spending more time with them. There could be some fear of changing how I spend time with them, that I might not be accomplishing much. But nothing gets done if I never try. I know it takes time and you build on each day spent, but I think I focus too much on getting things done and just need to enjoy them. Now I’m rambling, so I’ll listen more and comment later!

There are lots of horse trainer podcasts available but none better than yours. I literally look forward to Wednesday mornings listening while getting ready for work. This last one made me laugh because your response to PPL was to pack the plates for all your horses for 2021, and it isn’t even Halloween 2020 yet. I don’t have the horse(s) or resources or skill set available to do as much with my horse as you can do, but I definitely still apply the thought approach and push further boundaries of riding growth and showing than I would without your subtle encouragement through sharing your journey. For me and my horse personally, this has meant going from a low point with “crippled” and anxious young cow horse to a much healthier happy horse with a better more competent rider after persistently seeking out coaches and care. I’m in process of getting my 7 yr old AQHA registered and hope to enter some low impact “safe for him given osteoarthritis” shows next year. No “down the fence” for him but we are both loving learning dressage and obstacle course stuff.

I’m so grateful for Stacy’s thoughtfulness and compassion when she addresses a listeners questions. She keeps it all so real!

I only discovered Stacys podcast a couple of weeks ago and they’ve been so helpful to me. Stacy is a compassionate, smart horsewomen with a keen interest in helping and also learning from others. Her interviews with other people and trainers in the horse industry are very entertaining and encouraging. I just got back into having my own horse again, I accidentally 🤪 bought a young one . Stacy’s advice has been invaluable. Thank you Stacy, you’re a treasure!

Stacy Westfall is a genius and a gift to all riders and horse owners. She is so clear and thoughtful in the way she understands and explains horses, like no other trainers. She is compassionate and effective. This podcast offers more value than HOURS and hours with most trainers!!!

I love this podcast. Stacy Westfall is an amazing trainer—of people and horses! She’s great at explaining things in bite sized pieces, organizing her thoughts, and wrapping it all up with a nice bow at the end of each podcast. I love her training and speaking style, and you can tell she really enjoys her work. Highly recommend this podcast!

Ive just discovered that there are horse lovers podcasts! Stacy’s podcasts are so interesting, the knowledge and experiences she shares are priceless.

I heard Stacy on horses in the morning and the dressage radio podcasts. I love hearing her adventures and how she’s willing to try anything. I enjoy how relatable she makes her podcast not only to horses but to other real life examples. I find her podcast super helpful as an amateur own to train rider and a corporate business woman. Thank you Stacy for your life guidance!

Really enjoy this podcast Stacy is so thoughtful in how she explains things! It has helped me think of many things in a new way. Loved the format of the How to teach your horse to spook episode. Keep these podcasts coming!

I really like being able to listen while driving. She addresses many issues that I think many of us who are riding and no longer fearless teenagers, are struggling with.

I am learning so much from each podcast I listen to. I really like the fact that Stacy gives advice on how to improve as a rider and how to help your horse. Each time I finish the new podcast, I can’t wait for the next podcast to become available. Highly recommend this podcast to anyone who rides or enjoys horses.

Stacy is s natural teacher who explains things in s logical, easy to understand way. Even though I’ve been riding my whole life, and wondered how listening to a podcast about a physical activity would be useful, I was surprised at how compelling it is. Stacy gives us a fresh outlook on horse training and the biomechanics of riding.

Stacy explains things in a way that is so clear and understandable. She is an expert horsewoman with a wealth of knowledge yet she is incredibly relatable and human. She seems genuinely interested in helping her audience and encourages interaction through her website and Facebook pages. She actually responds to questions and addresses the problems and concerns of her listeners. I’ve learned so much from Stacy’s videos and blogs and to now have a podcast is a wonderful resource! Anyone wanting to expand their knowledge and abilities with their horses will enjoy this podcast. My only complaint is that I wish the episodes were longer!

Thank you so much when ever I need a confidence push I revert back to your teachings and it helps me remember and calmly work better with my girl !

I love everything Stacy! She explains everything in a way I can understand. So many of her topics hit home with me.

Thank you for making these podcasts usable for us, almost immediately it clicks and my wheels start turning on how to improve myself before asking my horse! Thank you

Stacy has a great way of explaining things! Any knowledge that she chooses to share, I will gladly take! 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼

Love these Podcasts! These really help to keep me focused on my goals and they aren’t too long!

Can’t wait for the next one! Working on a whole lot of fear of failure at the moment. Thanks for the podcast!
