I was one of the kids who wrote to Washington for the Wild Horse Annie campaign. I remember her, the films, etc. I was put on a horse before I could walk by my grandpa. My grandparents were trick riders til my grandma had an accident that stopped her riding. I always tell myself Oprah's quote," When we know better, we do better". So much more is known then when I started riding. I wish I knew then what I'm learning now via videos. And Ive been out of the equestrian world for a while. I hope one day I can figure out how to overcome the things that are preventing me from having a horse again.
Wow! Thats so cool to hear from someone who was a part of that movement! What an experience that must have been for you. Thanks for sharing that and a bit of your experience 💙 And I also love that quote!
I bought a mustang on Monday at the Online corral, you weren't kidding about the nervousness. I am so excited and I will be watching your videos to learn more about how to train him. I got 3384 ;)
Black Beauty is one of my favorite books and I do love the movie. I had a hobby horse with a chestnut/reddish plush head and a white blaze. I named her Ginger because I wanted her to know a better life than the book described.
I remember learning about the inmate program when I was younger too! Lol! Thanks for sharing a bit of your past and your passion! I've been watching since your channel basically started and its been inspiring to watch your journey and growth. It is great to be find contentment in all our seasons but I am praying that you will find your new place to live this year that will have all the room you need to keep all the horses with you on one property. God bless you!
You've got a great sense of humor !...... add in the compassion, empathy and skilled horsemanship.....and you've got YOU! You're gonna go far......as far as YOU WANT TO.....enjoy the ride!! Cindy 🐴
I used to have a garden off grid with only one water source, and found the easiest way to fill and haul it long distances was one of those plastic storage bins in a wagon, definitely made chores easier!
How lovely to hear and see what you drew and wrote about horses/mustangs when you were a young girl, I think 2025 is your year for achieving your goals, tfs x Julie 🇬🇧
All the best for 2025! I enjoyed the trip down memory lane, especially when you shared your childhood essays and drawings. It sparked recollections of a girl I sat next to in the 6th grade whom I'm certain you would have been best friends with. She was a talented artist who regularly doodled out masterpieces of horses and Labradors. I thought I'd impress her by drawing a horse during the regular art period, but it looked like some kind of undiscovered goat-like creature with the head of a camel. The more I tried to fix it, the worse it got. We got in trouble for laughing. My better half said she was going back to her roots in 2025, too! "So you're going to just let it go gray," I asked? I made myself a couple of hot dogs and a can of chili for dinner. Very sweet of her to leave a pillow and a blanket on the couch for me. 😉
Thank you for sharing your story and your goals! Seeing you continuing to train even in the cold and snow, I should say you motivated me, but I think really you’ve rather shamed me into reconsidering my approach with my own horses! 😂 Here in Virginia where I live, snow remains from a storm a week and a half ago, and very cold temps, both of which are unusual for our area. And thus a perfect excuse to not put in the effort I know I should be! Watching you persevere, I’m rethinking my own situation and goals, and I’m determined to make 2025 the best year yet with my horses. I’m looking forward to seeing your progress. Happy New Year! ❤
Aww thank you for your kind words! That is odd for VA! I went to college there and remember it only snowing a few times. It was especially fun watching all the southerners enjoy it :) I think it's just all what we're use to. I probably wouldn't be so resilient in the heat haha
Awww...don't be ashamed of your videos, you don't give yourself enough credit, I think it's amazing what you do. Your horses always look so good. Don't give up on that idea to get a mustang. You can do it !!!! I have faith in you girl !!!
This is such a beautiful video, hearing from the younger you and seeing your beautiful heart has never changed, shows how genuine you are in your search for finding the most gentle and correct way to communicate with your horses. I loved this. Keep on your path, it’s really beautiful. 🫶🏻
Awww you are too kind! I really don't think of myself as being extraordinary talented. I wouldn't want to be a traditional "trainer", but have a few ideas on some things I might want to do down the road :) I think this year will be big in continuing to build my foundation. Thanks again for your sweet words. It's fun building that connection :)
Britta...go to the class. You are ready and you are worthy, and you will learn and you will share. If there wasa way to contact you I would write you a huge appeal about how your life will change, but also how important it is to believe in your own personal strength. I see so much of myself in you. I'm almost 66 and not at all where I want to be or where I thought I'd be, but I am so incredibly blessed by all of the opportunities that I grabbed along this path. You are a hero in so many ways and never sell yourself short of that, A hero doesn't have to act a certain way or wear a medal or have 300K followers. All they have to do is make a difference which you do for all of us (and your babies) every single day.
I have trouble with my “frost free “ faucet freezing as well. I soak a rag in boiling water and wrap it around the faucet and cover it with a plastic and foam cover that you can purchase at the hardware store. Usually it thaws within a half hour.
You need heat trace wrap for your pipes, which you plug in during the winter freeze. I live in a mobile home and it has saved our pipes from freezing. Wishing you the best in 2025.
Omg!!! Have you seen free spirit equestrian on youtube!!??! She is starting to do retreats/clinics and I believe she does liberty too. She seems to be an incredible woman who cares about bettering the lives of horses.
Very interesting hearing about the horse papers you wrote for school. Have you ever heard of The Cloud Foundation? It's a wild horse and burro advocate started by Ginger Kathrens.
We live in a mobile home also, in cold weather we leave the water trickling to keep it from freezing up. We do have heat tape on our pipes but when it's super cold & in New york.
Britta. I have 5 rescues including a Wyoming mustang ( i am in WA state) have u considered traveling to indiivids, like me for a fee of course to help w training our mustangs?also i would love, on Feb 1 to send u $500 to assist with ur 2025 goals. How can i do that? I love how u teach. Janice
Horses are not like people in that their ability to stay warm is from forage which in their gut acts like their own internal furnace. These horses have forage available to them and as you can see they are in excellent weight!

What a beautiful video! Your gorgeous horses the snow, the individual snowflakes , your younger life and your future! ❤😊
Thank you! 😄❄️🐴
I absolutely love training our mustangs, client mustangs, and client domestic bred horses with liberty, choice, and positive reinforcement.
Black Beauty is one of my favorite books and I do love the movie. I had a hobby horse with a chestnut/reddish plush head and a white blaze. I named her Ginger because I wanted her to know a better life than the book described.
Just keep an open mind because both you and your horse are growing together ❤🐎

God made you knowing the love of horses was in your heart, and he knew what he was doing. 💛🐎
You really do good with all of the work that you have up there. I can't even imagine how much time it takes to film and do your duties.

Thank you, Julie! It’s crazy that this has been a passion of mine for So long now!
I am so impressed with how well you and Raven are doing. It’s beautiful to watch!
I just started liberty with one of mine as well. I am having a blast! I wish I would've started this sooner.
I love your enthusiasm. I hope you keep up as a corespondent for the mustang competitions👍🍀🇺🇸
Thank you!! 😊❤
I liked seeing individual snow flakes! Best of everything to you and the horses this new year!

lol your comments always crack me up! 😂😂
Excellent! I'm a former class clown, so it looks like I've gone back to my roots as well. 😄
21:20 💓 so inspiring. Thank you for sharing those final thoughts.
GOD bless you in 2025. Keep up the great work that you are doing 😊
Thank you ! :)
You have the cutest place & it’s great to see you smile again! We all stop & soul search from time to time. ❤You go!

@@TheProjectEquestrian ...exactIy...N0T a traditionaI trainer...you remind me a Iot of Steve Young in Wales :)
✨ Little things mean a lot
Fantastic video! There is power in contentment.
Girl, I don’t even want to know the things I wrote up in school. EVERYTHING was horse related 😂
YUP! lol

We use heat tape at the rental barn...don't know why I didn't think of that 😂
Beautiful 😍 🤩 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

blankets for horses resolution
Their natural winter coats are well equipped for this weather. ❄️😊
@@TheProjectEquestrian ...insuIation at its best :)
yep! they really don't seem to mind the cold. Heat on the other hand...they go straight to the shed. No thank you! 😂
