Hey hello hi friends (: We probably all saw this episode coming knowing me, but I genuinely feel this step is in the best interest of the podcast + myself; I've spent a lot of time over the past year really reflecting on what fills my cup + what I'm holding on to that no longer does. This podcast has been a passion project since it began + it has been such an incredible journey for me + I'm so thrilled to have played a role in advocating for more ethical horse training + management. It's truly been one of my greatest accomplishments in my eyes. Now, it feels like that story has been told + the project is mostly complete. It's a weird feeling that's taken me a while to sort out, but I'm doing my best to listen to my head + my heart with this one. All that said, I am 110% keeping the door open for future episodes to fill you guys in on what's going on with the horses + Azula's training. I'd love to pop in here + there, with no pressure or schedule (be a "real ~creative~" lol). So we'll see what happens friends, but for now, I thank each + every one of you for your time + support of this podcast. It means the world 💜 ⁠⁠⁠https://equitheory.com/episodes/11⁠5⁠⁠⁠⁠https://equitheory.supercast.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://discord.gg/w3Beu8aff2⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://forms.gle/UPetxzw5HuVHRuz79⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://forms.gle/Gu2G4fHPQGrt3USR8⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/equitheory/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@EquiTheory⁠⁠⁠⁠ EquiTheory Podcast — Hosted by Jill Treece of JETEquiTheory Disclaimer: This content is for educational, informational + entertainment purposes only, not professional consultation.

Hi friends, this week's ep starts out light covering some updates around my health journey, acne, etc and turned into quite a heavy one covering something I've been avoiding talking about for a while now. I wasn't really sure when I started the episode that I'd ever go there so apologies for the tone shift. Even in the episode I say it happened a few months ago, but only in looking back have I realized it was actually nearly a year ago, December 5th that Hearthrob, Beau, Beaubie passed. Even now, having not seen him in years, and knowing it's been almost a year since his passing, I'm struggling to write this description. So please forgive me if the episode is a bit repetitive or all over the place, I know I didn't say everything I wanted to for Beau, but if I've learned one thing about grief, it's that it doesn't have to make sense. That said, I did want to share something as I know many have loved Beau from afar and cherished him. He reached far and wide and became a lil famous horse. He deserved every ounce of love and support he got from you guys and I just, man, I'm so grateful to have known him. I can't believe it's been almost a year. I wanted to share sooner, but honestly, I couldn't find the words. I'm still not fully sure what to say other than how special he was. Rest easy sweet boy. You're in our hearts forever ❤️ Life with Beau: https://youtu.be/ZXUWqSbu2UA?si=ZDq-5nhX-mqiRMsl ⁠⁠⁠https://equitheory.com/episodes/11⁠4⁠⁠⁠⁠https://equitheory.supercast.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://discord.gg/w3Beu8aff2⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://forms.gle/UPetxzw5HuVHRuz79⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://forms.gle/Gu2G4fHPQGrt3USR8⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/equitheory/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@EquiTheory⁠⁠⁠⁠ EquiTheory Podcast — Hosted by Jill Treece of JETEquiTheory Disclaimer: This content is for educational, informational + entertainment purposes only, not professional consultation.

Hello friends, this episode is accidentally a more raw and vulnerable one. I start out catching you all up on Zoë + Azula and move into some more serious thoughts on training, mixing reinforcements (don't be scared now), my relationship with social media, and my dilemmas/paralysis when it comes to training and choosing my path.

Ok friends! We're on the third + final part of this booktalk series covering The Body Keeps the Score by Bessel van der Kolk. This section details about the treatment + recovery discussions in the book, specifically how important our role as an attuned "attachment figure" is in our relationships with our horses - especially those equine friends who are struggling with some traumatic fallout. We'll go in to depth about how some modern psychotherapy approaches might inspire our own treatment interventions with the horses.

Alright alright alright everyone! We're at part 2 of this booktalk series over The Body Keeps the Score by Bessel van der Kolk. This episode covers the 3 avenues to recovery from trauma with the primary focus on developing an understanding of reactivity and problem behavior through the lens of trauma. We're applying the concepts from research on humans to valuable principles to use in our approach to working with horses.

Welcome to the first iteration of a little series I'd like to start on this podcast! Imagine a book club of sorts where I apply concepts from books I'm reading (horse related or not) to work with horses! So, in this ep, I discuss applying Bessel van der Kolk's "The Body Keeps the Score" to training and working with horses with a bit of a trauma history. This episode is part 1 of this book's episodes as I haven't quite finished all my notes on this one. Look out for part 2!

This ep is basically a speed run of all the things I've learned over the past year that have largely changed my life. All centered around increasing your connection with your horse, this episode goes into mindfulness, perception, intention, some emotional regulation and more. Additionally, I answer a listener question regarding a horse who nips/bites. Here's the question: "I was wondering if you could discuss what a horse who nips means. My mare was scoped and treated for ulcers and I have seen a huge difference in her. She’s done with treatment but usually still nips when you go to pet her. I’ve been working on consent based care in the past months and also asking her if I can move into her space which seems to be working to make her feel much more comfortable. My question is why would she continue to nip? Is it a learned history from the ulcer? (you couldn’t groom/tack up or in anyway pet her without her biting at you) She’s on a gastric support feed and a ration balancer in order to keep her sugars down so I don’t think the ulcers are back since she is in a very low stress environment from what I observe with low sugar grains. Could I also be influencing this behavior by expecting it? Also what can I do to make her more comfortable when being around me? Just so you know I’m younger which means that I don’t have everything that I would want for her. She’s at my house so I have full control of her living situation (outside 24/7 with other horses)." This question calls to mind the tendency to focus on what is going wrong, thereby expecting it, and perhaps even unintentionally influencing it to go wrong. Try to avoid statements like, “I want my horse not doing xyz,” as this still focuses your attention on the negative. This tends to lead to punishment, fear, or pain. Instead try this: Ex: Horse bites Enjoy! https://equitheory.com/episodes/107⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://equitheory.supercast.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://discord.gg/w3Beu8aff2⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://forms.gle/UPetxzw5HuVHRuz79⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://forms.gle/Gu2G4fHPQGrt3USR8⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/equitheory/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@EquiTheory⁠⁠⁠⁠ EquiTheory Podcast — Hosted by Jill Treece of JETEquiTheory Disclaimer: This content is for educational, informational + entertainment purposes only, not professional consultation.

Enjoy a drizzly lazy day with me as I regale events of the week's past such as the start of my new job, Zoë updates, and Azula's rain rot. We also dip into the divisive woo woo topic of energy where some shine with passion and others spit in disgust (some really hate the idea of "training with energy"...). But I offer ye this... might we be looking at what it means to "train with energy" in the wrong way? Does is matter how you look at it? Isn't it just a nasty marketing ploy to justify not-so-great methods?

What a wonderful lil episode this was! I hope it gave you guys some solid ideas of how we can work to improve the way that +R trainers present themselves, the science of behavior and training, and how we can all work to better the lives of our equine companions. Guest, Adele Shaw, and I attempt (as much as our very tangent prone brains allow) to cover a shaping plan from top to bottom explaining the bad and correcting for the good. Except this shaping plan isn't for the horses this time; it's all about us, the positive reinforcement trainers. So, if you are one, thinking of becoming one, or have interacted with one in the past, this episode is a great deep dive into why +R trainers are sometimes mildly unbearable and why other times, they are anything but! https://m.iaabc.org/about/lima/https://m.iaabc.org/about/lima/hierarchy/ Follow Adele! https://www.thewillingequine.com/https://instagram.com/thewillingequine See This Episode's Page! 🔥💙 WHERE TO FIND US 💙🔥 https://equitheory.comequitheory@gmail.comhttps://equitheory.com/shophttps://patreon.com/equitheoryhttps://forms.gle/UPetxzw5HuVHRuz79 https://www.instagram.com/equitheory/https://www.facebook.com/equitheoryhttps://www.youtube.com/@EquiTheoryhttps://www.tiktok.com/@jetequitheoryhttps://twitter.com/equitheory EquiTheory Podcast — Hosted by Jill Treece of JETEquiTheory Disclaimer: This content is for educational, informational + entertainment purposes only, not professional consultation.

You guys, I am so stoked for this episode. It’s been such a long time coming and I think it’s so good! So, quit reading this lame description and dive into this episode with the one and only Adele Shaw of the Willing Equine. Adele Shaw is an internationally recognized mentor and trainer focused on creating a positive relationship between horse and human through science-based training and care practices. Drawn to horses labeled as “trouble makers” and “lost causes” from an early age, Adele has always had a passion for understanding the “why” behind behavior and a deep desire to help horses find their way back to wellness. This holistic approach examines the horse’s environment, lifestyle, and physical and mental soundness to ensure that the horses are not simply surviving, but truly thriving in their life and relationship with their human caretakers. As a teacher, Adele is supportive and understanding of both horse and human, and tailors her lessons to provide the most personalized, accessible and ethically minded coaching possible. Her approach goes beyond method: by offering flexible training and care systems, the wellbeing of the horse and the empowerment of the student always remain the primary goals. In addition to her hands-on work with specialized rehabilitation cases at her ranch in Texas, Adele maintains an active role in the equestrian community through her clinics, online student programs, courses, blog, podcast, and social media outreach.
