The Holistic Horsemanship and Husbandry Podcast
Welcome to The Holistic Horsemanship and Husbandry Podcast where your hosts, Laura & Cindy are coming together to alchemize hearts and horses for a more connected life.
We're two horsewomen from vastly different backgrounds, united by our profound experiences with horses and the life lessons they've taught us. Our goal for this podcast is to empower you to look beneath the surface of your horsemanship journey to find a deeper connection, more meaning, and more confidence to do whatever you dream of with your equine.
If you've ever felt like there's more to life with horses than what you currently see working with your trainer, at clinics, and in the day-to-day with your horse, you're absolutely right. There's a profound connection with these animals that can truly transform your life - an energetic world that you can't see, but it's very much alive. When you learn to tap into it, you achieve a level of potential beyond what you can imagine.
"Spiritually Empowered Horsemanship" is for the heart-driven horse enthusiast seeking to work within that energetic world that we can't see. Whether you're a seasoned equestrian or new to horses, this podcast will inspire you to see your horsemanship journey in a new light.
Join us every 2nd and 4th Tuesday of the month as we share insights into navigating your relationship with your horse, mindful riding practices, trusting your intuition in horse training and horse husbandry, and embracing an imperfect journey towards a deeper connection with yourself and your equine. Each episode seeks to enrich your knowledge, ignite your imagination, and deepen your awareness.

In this episode, Laura steps forward as a hoof expert and total hoof nerd. We discuss how your horse's hoof is a powerful indicator of their overall well-being. Laura shares her journey of learning to trim so she can help her own horse and the horses at the rescues where she volunteers.

The episode covers how to assess your horse's hooves and the pros and cons of shoes versus barefoot care. We also touch on the significance of proper trimming, the dangers of contracted heels, and how to ensure your horse’s hooves remain healthy across different seasons.
Tune in to learn how to spot early signs of hoof issues and take proactive steps to keep your horse healthy and happy.
