In our very first episode, we’re pulling back the curtain on who we are, where we come from, and why this podcast even exists.
I’m Lizzo — a junior rider in the 1970s who spent most of my childhood in the barn, long before anyone talked about “programs” or “pathways.” I was trained the old-school way: miles, feel, fundamentals… and eventually by a trainer who went on to become one of the most influential names in the sport. Riding shaped everything about me, even when life took me into the world of global advertising and away from horses for decades.
And I’m Reynolds — a modern adult amateur, new mother, and working professional balancing RM Total Equine, an equine-insurance career with Markel, and a life that never really stops moving. I grew up in a completely different equestrian era: structured programs, polished presentation, social media, juggling schedules, and navigating a sport that looks perfect from the outside but takes everything behind the scenes.
Two riders. Two generations. One sport.
In this episode, we talk about what the equestrian world looked like then, what it looks like now, and how those differences shaped us as riders, women, and humans trying to stay connected to a sport we love.
💬 In this episode we share:
• Lizzo’s “magic mother moment” surprise barn
• The $200 backyard horse that taught everything
• Reynolds’ first horse and what grit really looked like
• Barn life in the 70s vs barn life today
• How horsemanship, teaching, and expectations shifted
• Why we’re starting this podcast — and what we hope it becomes
If you’ve ever…
✔ Wrapped legs in the dark
✔ Dragged hoses farther than physics should allow
✔ Learned by trying, failing, trying again
✔ Wondered what happened to old-school horsemanship
✔ Loved a horse that changed you
…you’re in the right place.
