I always take more away from my lessons with Lanny than just horsemanship.
When I bought this horse last April I had dreams, but no goals.
Brian Knapp said, “There is a difference between a dream and a goal. A dream is a gift you want to be given. A goal is something you work to achieve.”
A goal is something you work at. So what am I working for?
Since I officially started freelancing at the end of November 2019, I know this post is a little late! But ya know, I’ve just have been dealing with a global pandemic and what not! This post is actually great for me both personally and professionally, as it holds me accountable and gives me room to review and improve.

Hi, I’m Caroline and I have spent most of my horse “career” being a skeptic of equine supplements — I didn’t start using them until college when my gelding, Jack, dropped a ton of weight.

But alas, after years of searching for the perfect supplement brand — I’ve found my holy grail: Horse Guard.
When I found out that I was moving from the Midwest to the Southwest I OF COURSE had to plan on getting my horse there as well. The plan was to pack my car up and drive to Phoenix after the big day, so with all the stress from the wedding and logistics involved with moving myself, I decided to leave the task of hauling Jack out to Arizona with the pros. Trust me when I say pros — I wouldn’t let just anyone haul my horse!
Working from home isn’t all roses and lounging in my favorite yoga pants — it’s isolating and sometimes it’s just uninspiring. For any of those considering making the switch, OR who already do I wanted to share a few good tips to get you through your workdays.
Hi horse friends!
A little known secret about me is that if I could own my own tack & feed store I would. When I was a kid I could spend hours just roaming the aisles, comparing products and feeling the tack. Here are my barn favorites, my all-stars, my ride-or-die barn products:
