Description
Welcome to Unbridled Conversations: The Unstable Equine Podcast, where equestrians come together to champion the well-being of the true heart of our sport—the horse. Hosted by Hannah, a passionate equine nutrition expert and founder of EquiPacs, and Charlotte, a quick-witted eventer and livery yard manager, this podcast blends heartfelt advocacy with relatable stories and expert insights.
At Unbridled Conversations, we’re here for the horses. Our mission is to champion their care, amplify their voice in every corner of equestrian sport, and inspire positive change within our community. Through thoughtful education, myth-busting advice, and unfiltered tales from the yard, we strive to create a space where no one feels alone in their equestrian journey.
Whether you’re navigating the challenges of horse ownership, questioning industry norms, or just looking for some mucking out laughs, this podcast is your place to connect, learn, and grow. Together, we’re challenging the status quo, demanding better for our sport, and ensuring that our horses remain front and center in everything we do.
So, saddle up for Unbridled Conversations. It’s time to ride together, speak up, and make a difference for our equine partners—one episode at a time.

Send us a text Hannah sold her saddle… or did she? This week we unpack the absolute fever dream that was her Facebook Marketplace transaction: a mystery buyer, a 10PM collection, zero money exchanged, and a level of trust that honestly has us concerned. Is she scammed? Is she delusional? Is she okay? Unclear. We also catch up on a listener’s all too relatable follow‑up to last week’s Aunt Flow episode, plus a very pink‑themed Normal or Neigh that sends us spiralling. Join the chaos, join th...
Send us a text This week, we’re tackling the REAL untalkable topic in the horse world: getting your period while trying to live your best equestrian life. From white jods that betray you, to show-day “bloodbath” disasters, to sanitary pads achieving unexpected airtime... Nothing is off-limits. Plus, Pippa’s “Normal or Neigh” sends both the gals into an existential crisis because apparently an alicorn is a thing and we had no idea. It’s chaotic, it’s honest, it’s painfully relatabl...
Send us a text It’s Blue Monday (Actually, we are a week late...) and this episode meets you exactly where you are. This week, the girls sit in the heaviness a little. They talk honestly about motivation, comparison, and the pressure to constantly be chasing the next goal. The next level. The next big dream. The version of success that looks impressive to everyone else. But what if those dreams aren’t realistic right now? And what if that’s actually… okay? This episode is about remembering wh...
Send us a text Our first guest of 2026, Kitty from Kitty J Equestrian. Kitty is known for being unapologetically real online, sharing every high, low and “what the hell am I doing” moments of her equestrian journey with her horses Henry and Juno. Henry came to Kitty with a chronic rearing problem, while Juno is her newly self-backed four-year-old with big hopes, big dreams and plenty to learn. This episode goes deep. The girls and Kitty talk about: Feeling unable to speak up when you disagree...
Send us a text This week on Unbridled Conversations, the girls dive headfirst into livery yard life, where our horses actually live, not just where we visit between work, life and chaos. Because here’s the thing… you get to go home. Your horse doesn’t. From yard layout and facilities to routine, turnout and daily management, Hannah and Charlotte unpack all the things we say we prioritise and the things we sometimes quietly overlook because a yard suits us better than our horses. Oops! The gir...
Send us a text Season 2 is officially HERE and the girls are kicking things off in true Unbridled style ✨ It’s the New Year, new goals, new delusions… and Charlotte’s birthday (don’t forget to wish her a happy one 🎂). With brand new kit, fresh topics and some very exciting guests lined up for the year ahead, the podcast is coming back bigger, better than ever... You’re welcome. In this episode, Hannah and Charlotte catch up after the Christmas chaos, confess how much (or how little 👀) the hor...
Send us a text It’s the FINAL episode of 2025 and the Season One finale of Unbridled Conversations! Just 12 months ago, this podcast was nothing more than an idea… and somehow here we are, 52 episodes later. True to form, the girls kick things off with a Normal or Neigh, and to wrap the year up, they are in complete agreement. From there, it’s full reminisce mode. Hannah and Charlotte look back on their favourite episodes, guests, listener write-ins and Normal or Neighs. The laughs, the...
Send us a text IT’S CHRISTMASSSSS 🎄✨ The final countdown is ON and the girls are fully leaning into festive optimism. The shortest day of the year is behind us, the sausage rolls are basically in reach, and honestly… nothing can break the Christmas spirit (okay, maybe mud, but still). This week Hannah and Charlotte chat all things balancing life, family, horses and Christmas, and how wildly different the festive season can look depending on how and where you work in the equestrian world. Is i...
Send us a text This week, logic leaves the chat. What starts as a Normal or Neigh quickly spirals into full-blown chaos as the girls find themselves checking their horses’ horoscopes. Yes, actual star signs, to decide whether it’s a good day to school… or if today’s a lunge-and-leave-it-alone situation. Mercury in retrograde? Probably explains that spook. But beneath the laughs and astrology chaos, the episode takes a turn into something far more important, trigger stacking. What really...
Send us a text This week, the girls tackle one of the equestrian world's deepest, darkest, most universal truths: the horse girl diet. You know the one... Soda before sunrise, breakfast sometime around 4PM, meals that are 90% Haribo and 10% emotional turmoil, and enough caffeine to tranquillise a rhino. The girls break down the weird (but worryingly normal) eating habits horse girls everywhere have adopted… and how this was all a LOT easier when we were 22 and could inhale three beige meals a...
Send us a text This week the girls admit defeat. Black Friday well and truly took them OUT. From the bargains they couldn’t resist to the completely unnecessary (but emotionally essential) purchases, Hannah and Charlotte unpack the chaos item by item… including the shocking item on Charlotte’s shopping list that has left Hannah speechless, betrayed, and questioning the entire friendship. Plus, this week’s Normal or Neigh comes from a brand-new listener who instantly gets the vibe and delivers...
Send us a text This week, the girls sit down with the one and only Freddie Cross from Stübben Saddles, and trust us when we say… he did NOT hold back. Every question you’ve wanted to ask your saddle fitter but never felt brave enough to? We asked it. Freddie answered. Unfiltered. Honest. Sometimes painfully honest. We dive into: Why static saddle fitting alone is a 🚨 red flagWhat good saddle fit actually looks likeThe difference between horse fit, rider fit + realityWhy two saddle fitters nev...
Send us a text Winter is here and the girls are coming in fully rugged up, or are they? This week, Hannah and Charlotte dive headfirst into the ultimate equestrian winter wardrobe. From questionable “must-haves” to unquestionable "must-NOTS", from heated vests to snuds vs snoods (yes, we’re still arguing about that one), this episode is a full-on horse girl fashion debate. This week’s Normal or Neigh is right on theme: should you really be tacking up your horse in when they're soaking wet? Th...
Send us a text This week, the girls are tackling the winter wobble head-on because just blaming the dark nights while unwrapping your nightly family-sized Dairy Milk isn’t gonna cut it.. From trying to stay fit through the gloom to finding your accountability partner (who won’t let you “start Monday”), this episode is all about keeping your motivation alive when it’s cold, muddy, and your horse thinks lunging twice a week counts as cardio. Hannah’s gone from couch to 5k in one night (se...
Send us a text The clocks have changed and so have we... for the worse. This week, the girls brace themselves for the cold, dark, and muddy chaos that is winter horse ownership. From sideways rain and feral horses to budgeting for endless hay and electric fencing battles, they’re holding nothing back. There might be tears, there might be tantrums, but there’s also solidarity, because we’re all in this together. Plus, this week’s Normal or Neigh is a drive-thru dilemma that’s got everyon...
Send us a text It’s giving unhinged horse girl Monday energy, this week’s episode is pure, unfiltered chaos. We kick off with a Normal or Neigh that features Care Bear pyjamas (yes, you read that right) and things only spiral from there. From acorns falling from the sky to travelling tantrums, CDJ’s comeback, Olive making a surprise appearance, and the all-important question... Did the girls clip yet?! It’s funny, it’s feel-good, and it’s everything you need to brighten your Monday morning.&n...
Send us a text This week the girls are joined by Diana Waters, founder of The Power of Walk, BHS and EA qualified coach, and Enlightened Equitation instructor all the way from Australia 🇦🇺 With over 30 years in the saddle, Diana has seen it all and she’s here to tell us that the real magic doesn’t happen at the gallop. It happens in the walk. The girls dive into her transformative approach to building posture, balance, and connection through slow, intentional work that reshapes not only...
Send us a text Holiday season is just around the corner… but not for us, for the horses! This week’s Normal or Neigh from Jane has us asking the ultimate question. Do you whip those shoes off for a break, or leave them on like a badge of honour? The girls dive deep into horsey R&R: Charlotte’s strict eventing season means her horses actually get a proper winter break, while Hannah’s dressage life is 12-month long and Atheby books his own holidays... So how do they manage it? Do holidays h...
Send us a text This week, we’re talking all things clipping aka the horse girl version of salon day, except it happens every 7–10 days, nobody offers you a glass of Prosecco, and you leave with rogue hairs stuck in your bra that itch for a fortnight. We get into every angle: failed attempts at stopping the hair growth, sweating, drying, mud, tears, tantrums, and the emotional damage of the clock changes. Basically, if you’ve ever cried into a pair of clippers, you are one of us. And this week...
Send us a text This week, we’re joined by the incredible Faith Banks for a conversation that every equestrian will connect with. Faith’s story isn’t about fairy-tale finishes, red rosettes, or picture-perfect moments. It’s raw, unfiltered, and uncomfortably honest. It’s also a reality that so many horse owners quietly live through. From unwanted advice to battling outside noise, Faith has learned the power of putting herself and her horse first and her resilience will inspire you to do the sa...
