#ranchriding

Do what you love, and you'll never grow bored. I'll be the first to admit that not riding is absolutely soul crushing. When I left the sport, I knew that I needed a break. I was exhausted, burnout, struggling with my mental health, and the horses was the thread that connected it all. That being said, I'm grateful that I took this time away to understand how important horses are to me. I'm aware that the content on this page is shifting a bit, and that may not be your cup of tea. But, I'm coming to terms with the idea that I won't be owning a horse for a while now. While I will still be taking lessons, making consistent content from lessons is a huge challenge to do. Between that, working on my career, and planning for a move in January, I recognize that I need to do what is going to be right for me. As much as I love creating all of the equestrian content, I also love sharing my art. Don't worry, the horses aren't going away entirely, and I will still make text posts, blogs, and podcast episodes.... but I'm excited to continue sharing my hobbies, thoughts, and experiences with all of you! The speedpaint for this piece is live on my youtube!

Each year I have improved, some may say it’s slow progress, but it’s still progress. #aaqhcongress #ranchriding #tejonsshadowbar #stacheranch #windingcreekesc #aqhaproud #beautifulbuckskin https://www.instagram.com/p/Bty6c0ZH6yT/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=10v5m0uvze7to
