Things I Wish I Knew When I Was Twenty (but at least I know now)
I find that almost all the lessons I learn around horses can be applied to regular life. Last month I welcomed a new horse into the family. He's my first young project in a decade, and it's put me in a reflective mood. In this episode, I share some of my favorite pieces of wisdom I've picked up over the years - for horses and life.

How to Self-Coach Through Tough Emotions and Build Break-through Habits, with Melynda Benlemlih
Have you ever had a dream come true, only to be met with tough emotions you didn't expect? Have you ever been on vacation and found yourself frustrated because you're pulled from your daily routine or to-do list?
This week something I have been working toward for months finally came together, and I was heartbroken over it. It was the last thing I expected. I thought I would be giddy, like a school girl who walked out to the mailbox to find a new pony! Instead, I've spent the week swallowing back tears at inopportune moments.
When I logged onto my computer to interview Melynda, the last thing I expected was a coaching call with me at the center. Melynda guides us on a deep dive into choices, habits, emotions, and how to gain better control of all of them.
I hope this interview enriches your life as much as it has mine.
~Sarah, host of LiveRideLearn
All the details we promise during the episode:
Melynda refers to a previous episode where I talk about making lists! Here's the link. (PS this was one of my first episodes and WOW have things grown!)
Melynda is AMAZING and gifting us a FREE habit tracker! Just go to this web page and scroll down: https://www.cognitiveagilityllc.com/habit-tracker
Have some stuff to work through? I HIGHLY recommend booking a discovery call with her. Honestly all those negative emotions are GONE after our interview (I'm honestly wondering where they wondered off to). https://course.cognitiveagilityllc.com/bookacall

Dream Chasing, Horse Racing
So, here it is. The BIG ANNOUNCEMENT IS... you've got to listen to find out (but I can promise you I'm NOT pregnant).
Truly, I hope this big idea inspires you in your own big ideas. Chase the dream, do the thing. I'd much rather try and fail than regret never trying. I'm so excited about this grand adventure, and only wish there weren't so many logistics to keep us from starting already.

When We Believe The Lies: A Story of Imposter Syndrome
Welcome back! We are officially in season 2 of LiveRideLearn!
In episode one, you get a heads up of what to expect for season 2 (there is a BIG secret!), and a throwback to the roots of LRL - a story. If the title of the episode didn't give it away, it's a tale of lies and imposter syndrome. I got hit dead center with it, and once I made it to the other side it was a realization that we all deal with this in some way. Enjoy!
