This conversation explores a shift happening quietly within horsemanship—a movement that is less visible, less performative, and increasingly happening beneath the surface. Together, they discuss what it means to carry forward work that challenges traditional systems, and why meaningful change often doesn’t happen in the spotlight.

Using the idea of an “underground railroad” of horsemanship, this episode looks at how people are being guided—sometimes gently, sometimes reluctantly—out of dominance-based approaches and into something more honest, more humane, and more sustainable for the horse.

They also explore the responsibility of teaching within this space, how to avoid guru dynamics as the work grows, and what it means to develop real authority without losing independence of thought.

This is a conversation about quiet influence, long-term change, and the kind of work that doesn’t need to announce itself to be effective.

Because not all progress is visible.

But it is happening.

In this episode of Horse First, Lockie Phillips explores the growing tension between clear-eyed discernment and the way it’s often mislabeled as judgment when it challenges harmful norms in horse culture. When people name impact, ask hard questions, or speak up for the horse, discomfort can quickly turn into attempts to silence dissent. This conversation unpacks the difference between moral condemnation and ethical clarity, and why horses depend on humans who are willing to notice, assess, and stay steady even when the room gets uncomfortable.

In this episode of Horse First, Lockie Phillips is joined by equine practitioner and The Whole Horse Podcast host, Alexa Linton.

This is a conversation about where horsemanship is heading—and what we may need to leave behind to get there.

Together, they explore the idea that much of what has been called “progress” in the horse world has remained largely aesthetic. Softer, quieter, better presented—but still operating within the same underlying systems.

Alexa offers a grounded and forward-looking perspective on what the next phase of horsemanship is asking of us, and why going deeper is no longer optional.

This episode challenges listeners to move beyond appearance and into something more honest, more demanding, and ultimately more meaningful for horses.

Because where this work is going next…
 surface-level won’t hold.

In this episode of Horse First, Lockie Phillips explores how whips, crops, and training sticks can quietly shift the balance of a relationship, sometimes to the point that a horse’s ability to communicate back begins to disappear. Beyond the debate of “good” or “bad,” this is a conversation about proportion, power, and what happens when tools replace listening instead of supporting it. With practical examples and a steady lens on impact, this episode invites us to ask whether our methods leave room for the horse’s voice, or make their answers unnecessary.

This is not just a conversation about health. It’s about attention. About the quiet moments where something doesn’t feel right, and the choice to trust that feeling even when answers aren’t clear.

Lockie speaks candidly about noticing early signs, navigating veterinary input, and the importance of advocating for your horse with clarity and respect. This episode explores the reality that vets, while essential, do not know your horse the way you do—and why the best outcomes often come from a collaborative, rather than hierarchical, relationship.

It also brings focus back to the fundamentals: care, nutrition, training, and environment as active parts of treatment, not afterthoughts.

If you’ve ever felt unsure, dismissed, or hesitant to speak up for your horse—this episode is a reminder:

You are not just the owner.
You are part of the solution.

And you know your horse.

In this episode of Horse First, Lockie Phillips explores the delicate moment when a horse begins to trust that their communication will be met with attention, not override. Beyond compliance and beyond silence, this is where real partnership starts to form: a horse who can follow guidance without disappearing, and a human who can lead without crowding the space. A reflective and hopeful conversation about advocacy, clarity, and the kind of training that becomes possible when listening is more than an idea, it’s a lived experience.

If Emotional Horsemanship resonates, the best place to begin is the EH School.

• a complete video library
• a private forum away from social media
• live coaching calls with Lockie

In this episode of Horse First, Lockie Phillips is joined by horsewoman and author Leslie Desmond for a wide-ranging conversation about the evolution of horsemanship. Together they reflect on the major eras that have shaped how humans train and understand horses, exploring what those traditions got right, where their insights remain valuable, and where new knowledge invites revision. The discussion moves from the vaquero and ranch traditions through modern horsemanship movements, and into the responsibilities facing today’s horse people. Leslie and Lockie explore what the next generation may need to contribute if horsemanship is to continue evolving in ways that honor both the horse and the relationship. A thoughtful, forward-looking conversation about lineage, learning, and the future of horse culture.

In this episode of Horse First, Lockie Phillips explores a quieter form of dominance that often goes unnamed in horse culture: the way human anxiety, overthinking, and unresolved tension can fill the space around a horse, even in the absence of force. When a handler’s internal experience becomes the centre of gravity, horses adapt by shrinking, complying, or going quiet. This conversation offers a steady lens on proportion, regulation, and what it means to truly make room for the horse’s voice. A grounding episode for anyone learning to stay present without taking up too much space.

In this episode of Horse First, Lockie Phillips sits down with Amanda Held, a horsewoman working at the intersection of therapeutic horsemanship and horse behaviour. Drawing from years of experience in equine-assisted programs, Amanda shares insights into how horses communicate their internal state and why reading those signals matters deeply when horses are asked to support human healing. Together they explore the potential blind spots within equine therapy settings, the responsibility humans carry when horses serve people therapeutically, and what it truly means to keep the horse’s wellbeing at the centre of the work. The conversation also touches on Amanda’s development of a new app designed to help horse owners better identify what their horses may be feeling in real time, opening the door to more informed, compassionate partnerships.

In this episode of Horse First, Lockie Phillips explores why urgency runs so deep in horse culture, and why slowing down is often the most competent choice we can make. When speed gets mistaken for discipline, horses lose space to learn, communicate, and stay whole. This conversation looks at the myth that faster means better, the reality of changing capacity in both horse and human, and the quiet strength of choosing accuracy over appearance. A grounding invitation to breathe, reassess, and remember that nothing meaningful is lost by waiting.

In this episode of Horse First, Lockie Phillips is joined by Becks Nairn, equine dissectionist, educator, and long-time advocate working across rescue, education, and welfare. Becks brings an anatomically grounded lens to questions of behaviour and performance, challenging many of the stories we’ve been taught to tell about “problem horses.” Together, they explore what the body reveals about pain, adaptation, and compensation, and what this knowledge demands of us when it comes to breeding, husbandry, and training. Recorded at a moment when Becks is newly able to speak more plainly about issues she was previously constrained from addressing, this conversation is honest, unflinching, and deeply necessary for anyone who wants to understand horses beyond surface behaviour.

In this episode of Horse First, Lockie Phillips explores the uneasy but essential truth that good intentions don’t always prevent harm. Impact and blame are not the same thing, and horses need our clarity far more than our guilt. Together, we unpack how love can create blind spots, why discomfort is often a sign of growth, and what accountability looks like when it makes us more capable instead of smaller. A steady conversation for anyone learning to stay open, listen deeper, and do differently once they know better.

In this special episode of Horse First, Lockie Phillips is joined by Kat HoSoo Lee for a conversation on the Year of the Fire Horse. Together, they explore what it means to move through a season of intensity, transformation, and truth-telling, both in ourselves and in horse culture. This is an episode about heat and clarity, about the parts of horsemanship that can no longer be performed or avoided, and the kind of courage it takes to stay present when old patterns burn away. A reflective and grounding dialogue on change, accountability, and the deeper listening that becomes possible when we let the fire refine rather than destroy.

Noticing Normal is an episode about the quiet ways harm can hide inside routine, especially in horse culture, where “this is just how it’s done” can slowly replace curiosity. Lockie Phillips explores how familiarity dulls perception, how the horse world teaches us what not to see, and the subtle signs horses offer long before anything breaks down. This isn’t a conversation about blame, it’s an invitation to wake back up, to question what’s become ordinary, and to remember that real care begins with noticing.

The first step to permanent change for the better, is acceptance of the truth of what we currently have.  And the truth is, the horse industry has a BIG problem with big violence, at every level, in many forms, in many disciplines and every country. 

Nobodies hands are clean.  The time has come to get off the fence, and make real steps forward. 

I am building a community for people who denounce stories like this and are fully ready to move forwards.  It is accessible, I take an active role there, so does my team.

Connect with Elaine Hayes here:
https://www.facebook.com/partnershipdressage

Elaine Hayes is a friend, client and colleague. 
 
 Elaine is a boarding barn owner, a dressage rider and trainer and lives in NC USA. 
 
 Partnership Dressage is the lense she approaches to developing correct sport horses, to a high level, with kindness and respect.  I have really enjoyed supporting her on a few cases she called me in to advise on. 
 
 Elaine is also an advocate for quality breeding.  After discovering ECVM in some of her horses, which resulted in life ending scenarios for these horses, Elaine put her entire business on the line to begin advocating for better breeding, diagnostics and awareness.  Awareness around the bodies many horses are born with. 
 
 ECVM, which has been discussed a few times in season 1, together with many other genetic diseases of a horses skeleton is not always a doom and gloom diagnosis.  It is not always a life ending diagnosis.  But it does hold a very high prevalence of high potential for discomfort, pain, and potentially event catastrophic dysfunction.  Early studies indicate the possibility, but not yet proven fact, that an enormous percentage of today’s domestic horses are bred with broken bodies. 
 
 I hugely admire Elaine.  Because I admire anyone who speaks boldly to their triuth and puts everything on the line, passionately for causes that are important to them. 
 
 Appearing on her first podcast ever, here.  It is my pleasure to introduce you to my friend and colleague, Elaine.

Sietske Meerloo is a friend of mine.  She is a phenomenal horse woman of Dutch descent and has lived all over the world, from Jordan to Spain and now France.
 
 Siets is a wonderful practitioner of the AAOR and for a while lived close to me in Galicia.  In fact, while I was searching for farms in Galicia, her support, and her life, inspired and assisted me in my homecoming.
 
 Last year, I had the honour to ask Siets to come to my farm every week to work with me and my horses on working a totally new skill set.  I enjoyed every single session.
 
 Siets is now offering her new business for horse people.  Called ECO OF PEGASUS, Siets offers a spiritual approach to life with horses through her lense as a Reiki practitioner, classical dressage, mountain trekking, Arabian horses and more.
 
 She aims to create a space for human and horse possibilities to come together holistically and honestly.
 
 She guides horse people who are struggling in their horse journey to create a more aligned partnership with their horse, that is focused on the horse persons SELF CARE as the first priority.
 
 I am so excited for her new venture and highly recommend working with her.
 
 I miss her greatly and look forward to bringing her to my farm for another deep dive together.

Learn more about Kat HERE:
https://kathosoolee.com/

Kat Ho Soo Lee is a spiritual business mentor.
 She is also the host of the Emotional Alchemy Podcast of which I have happily visited at least twice as a guest speaker. 
 
 Kat takes a trauma informed lense to the practice of running our own businesses.  She enfolds somatic, scientific, spiritual and nervous system knowledge into a holistic mentoring role, guiding today’s business owner to thrive in AND enjoy running their own business.
 
 She is also a client who has taken lessons with me.  Which to my delight I discovered a self professed beginner with horses, to possess an advanced skill set towards horses.
 
 Her work in the nervous system, in movement, in traditional eastern medicine and trauma informed practices naturally makes her a brilliant horse woman.
 
 She lives in Washington state, has a ranch of her own, and in spring of 2024 she showed up to my Washington State clinic and was a powerful voice in that space.
 
 Kat is the first of a series of podcasts where I present people whom on the surface appear to be new to horses, and yet possess skill, feel, understanding and knowledge that even lifelong horse people struggle at times, to embody.
 
 I present such guests here, alongside industry figure heads such as Temple Grandin and Celeste Lazarus, because it is never my opinion that only decades of experience can help you be excellent with a horse.
 
 Sometimes, from the mouths of beginners, comes the ultimate feel of horse-sense.  From the mind of the fresh, we find  logic and horsemanship is not solely gate kept, by the uber experiences, but can be embodies more immediately, from a multi-disciplinary approach.

Find out more about Kathy here: 
https://www.intrinzen.horse/
https://www.pantherflow.com/
https://www.instagram.com/pantherflows
https://www.instagram.com/intrinzen/

Kathy Sierra is a self confessed controversial figure to the horse world, and for that reason and many others, I absolutely adore her. 
 
 In my opinion, Kathy Sierra is at least 50 years ahead of her time.  
 
 Kathy comes to horses from a unique multi-disciplinary background;  she majored in exercise physiology at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, and worked in the fitness industry for 10 years.  She graduated in computer programming from UCLA and then enjoyed a long career in silicone valley in tech, being a pioneer in digital technologies in the 1990’s.  She has published books on computer programming and specialises in game design… where she became an international expert in the neuroendocrine physiology of PLAY and how to use it according to science to improve intrinsic motivation. 
 
 She has a deep interest in cognitive science driven from her own diagnosis of epilepsy. 
 
 After a long career in tech Kathy left that career after she fell victim to serious online harrassment that included doxing, death threats, doctored images of her face next to a noose posted on blogs and forums, and her threats were reported in the news.  After infamous and self professed internet trolls admitted their responsibility for the harassment to the New York Times, Kathy saw this as a sign to step back from her career in computer programming and technology.  The harassment was driven from of course, her pioneering and fearless approach to promoting the absolute best and most cutting edge information available to us… no matter whose feathers it may ruffle. 
 
 Kathy comes from a horsey family, her sister being a very dedicated dressage rider, and Kathy herself being a lifelong fan of the Icelandic breed. 
 
 She took her understanding of cognitive science, play science,  pain science and the mammalian neuroendocrine system and began a grassroots movement on instagram called at the time INTRINZEN she she presented scientifically cutting edge principals of the above and how it relates to horses. 
 
 using those principals her students then make unique implementations and adapatations to their horses.  Her work has the potential to completely throw out an outdated biomechanics model of horse training and usher in a new, more fun, more free, lesss fearful future of physical training and development of horses. 
 
 For this reason, she is often the persona non grata to many horse traiers and biomechanics experts because her wide and deep knowledge base cuts their work out at core as being based on bad science. 
 
 Kathy is a friend.  Someone who has always supported me, often at ties when nobody else did.  She is not someone whom I agree with on everything, but I don’t need universal consensus to love, respect and learn from my colleagues. 
 
 It is my pleasure to present this conversation with Kathy on the podcast.  I have old conversations between us already up on Youtube, but this is a fresh one!  Enjoy!

 Because of Temple, tens of millions if not billions by now, of animals, walk to their slaughter for human consumption without fear, pain or rough treatment.  
 
 In 2010 Temple was named by Time Magazine as one of the world 100 most influential people in the category of HEROS. She has a Double Helix Medal for her contributions towards awareness and funds for human health in biomedical research.  She has multiple honorary degrees from multiple universities.  She has been inducted into the Colorado Women’s Hall of Fame, the Fexas Hall of Fame and the Hall of Great Westerners of the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum.  She has a Meritorious Achievement Award from the World Organisation for Animal health, has been inducted into the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and the National Women’s Hall of Fame.  She has a Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine from Kansas State University-

And the subject of a biographic television film entitled Temple Grandin, where she was depicted by actress Claire Danes, that was nominated for 15 primetime Emmy Awards, winning 7. 
 
 Beyond being an omnipresent figure in multiple books written about animal welfare, animal science, the human food chain and autism, she has also written 27 books and still counting and she has published more than 60 peer reviewed scientific papers on a variety of animal related subjects. 
 
 Temple is a hero of mine and someones whose work I have studied extensively.  She inspired my journey into new ways of training horses from an ethical and welfare driven perspectives.  Her books are both enjoyable and richly informative.  
 
 Temple was happy to offer me an hour of her time to appear on her podcast, which we recorded in her kitchen. 
 
 It was my honour to speak with her and I hope you enjoy this conversation!

About KIM HALLIN

Mission:
At Unbridled, our mission is to empower horse lovers to establish and maintain healthy boundaries in their interactions with others, including in the horse industry. Through experiential education, online learning and mentoring support, we provide the tools and resources necessary for navigating the complexities of human relationships, especially within the equine community. By fostering empathy, understanding, and community, we strive to help horse lovers across the globe find more peace in their lives, and in their relationships.

Vision:
Our vision at Unbridled is a world (including the horse industry!) where individuals thrive in authentic and respectful relationships, free from the constraints of outdated narratives and power dynamics. We envision a future where healthy boundaries serve as the foundation for harmonious interactions, fostering a culture of mutual understanding, personal growth, and collective wellbeing. It's all about honoring the dignity and autonomy of every individual – horse, human and otherwise.

Our Approach: 
Drawing inspiration from nature and the wisdom of horses, we offer a unique (and fun!) approach to learning about yourself and understanding what it means to embody healthy boundaries. By harnessing the power of herd observation, staying grounded in what's true (equine ethology), and spending quiet time with horses–and ourselves– in the most natural ways possible, we become students who get to learn from the masters of the Boundary Dance (horses!).

Empowerment Through Experiential Learning: 
Our courses and programs are designed to provide interactive, relationship-based experiences that provide practical skills for establishing and maintaining healthy boundaries in your relationships with people and horses. We'll help you find your voice, learn to advocate lovingly for yourself and the horses in your life, and embrace courageous authenticity.

Louise Bach Holler is my guest on the podcast today, for a good reason! 
 
 Louise is a horse trainer and hoofcare provider certified with the AANHCP who was born in Denmark but currently lives in north east Spain. 
 
 Louise is passionate about natural horse keeping, barefoot trimming, and a training that blends food rewards with gentle pressure to fully educate and support a horse in their training in the best way possible. 
 
 She has competency in gymnastic groundwork, bitless riding, communication, body language, liberty work and much more. 
 
 Side bar, two years ago, I came into care of a Quarter horse colt named Oki.  His breeder and I have been collaborating on his slow and gradual upbringing at his original home for the last two years.  But this week, the first week of July 2024, Oki transports from one side of Spain to the other, to begin the next chapter of his life as he joins the EH herd here at my farm. 
 
 Transporting a 2 year old horse who has always lived at home across a country is a huge thing to ask of him.  So I knew I needed help. 
 
 I hired Louise 6 months ago, to be my hands, my eyes, my help to train Oki to be best prepared as possible to travel.  I am thrilled with the job she has done.  So I thought you guys might like to meet her yourself!
 
 I hope you enjoy this episode!

Continuing on the Polish guest theme from last week, my guest this week is Isabella Flemming.  Isa  is the reason I got my start with horses.  She ran the stable in Poland where I gained my beginnings as an equestrian, as a trainer and as a horseman. 
 
 Without Isabella, I would not have had access to horses at a crucial time in my life.  But not just any sort of access.  Access to horses who lived good lives, were trained and cared for well. 
 
 She is one of my mentors, my foundational teachers.  And though she doesn’t work with horses anymore, her story is one I am sure many listeners will resonate with. 
 
 I brought Isa and her daughter to my farm recently, to show Isa that her kindness, her generosity, her support was not wasted.  To show her what she helped me do in my life.  It was a full circle moment for me, and I think for her too. 
 
 If you are interested in knowing the end, look at the beginning.  Here is how I got my beginning.

In this LONG solo episode I answer all the questions I got on my social media pages about what the 2024 Spring Clinic tour was like. 

From "How do you move forward with someone who is stuck and not enjoying the clinic?"
to
"How to navigate holding space for so much energy as an introvert?" and many more, I give my honest and at times, extremely candid replies to these questions.  Giving you a hint behind the curtain of what it is like to travel overseas as a horse training clinician.

This solo episode I explore a major problem; when a horse stops moving.

Before we can implement strategies and tools for this, we need to understand WHY a horse has stopped moving.  And not all solutions to a lack of movement involve, making them move again.

Becks Nairn is an equine dissectionist, classical dressage rider and breeder located in New Zealand.  More and more interested in her dissection work, Becks joined me in a really honest conversation about what exactly is going on in the bodies of the horses we love so much, and why so many horses are facing catastrophic physical failure.

In this solo episode I explore how problematic horsemanship often has nothing to do with the techniques, attitudes or desires of the trainer... but about a dead-end business structure which creates no win for anyone.  Especially the horse. 

I explore how important it is that we change the relationship equine service providers have to their clients and vice versa and how the future doesn't have to be a minefield where we tip-toe gingerly around everyones triggers.  But we create safe spaces where the truth can be shared normally. 

Thanks for joining me here and don't forget to like and subscribe to this podcast. 

These short solo episodes will be supported by much longer collaborative episodes.  Look forward to new episodes every week!
