Summary
Getting to finally sit down and really introduce y’all to my new trainer felt so overdue… and I’m so excited for you to meet Stephanie! 🐴💕 In this episode of Katching Up With Katie, I’m sitting down with Stephanie to talk all about her background with horses, how she got started training, and what led her to Running Springs. We get into everything from her early riding days to working with young horses, plus what it’s been like stepping into an in-house trainer role here on the farm. Of course, we also dive into the fun stuff, my two-year-olds (Wall-E, Molly, and Daphne), their personalities, how they’re progressing, and which ones we’re most excited about right now. Having Stephanie here has completely changed the way I’m able to manage my horses. From starting two-year-olds at home, to making more tailored decisions as they grow, to honestly just helping me get back in the saddle more consistently. It really feels like the start of a whole new chapter for the farm, the horses, and the kind of content we get to create together. Let me know in the comments: Who’s your favorite two-year-old right now? And do y’all want a Part 2 with Stephanie? 👀 Chapters: 00:00 Welcome! 01:05 Stephanie’s Background 04:59 Transition into Professional Training 11:13 My Horse Program & Riding Style 13:37 Stephanie’s Mare Pinky & Breeding Plans 19:40 Foaling Experience 21:44 Why I Brought a Trainer In-House 28:40 Favorite Horses & Future Plans #HorseVlog #FarmLife #Equestrian #HorseTraining #BarnVlog #KatchingUpWithKatie ▶Check out my new merch: https://katievanslyke.net/collections/new ▶▶DIGITAL DOWNLOADS: https://katievanslyke.net/collections/digital-downloads ========================================================== ▶▶▶Connect With Me!
