How to Stop Micromanaging Your Horse
In this episode, we dig into a habit that many horse owners don’t even realize they have: micromanaging.
If you’ve ever found yourself holding the lead rope too tightly, correcting your horse over and over, or feeling the need to control every step, you might be micromanaging them. Your horse isn’t the only one affected when this happens.
The conversation explores:
- What micromanaging really looks like with horses
- How micromanaging affects your relationship and your horse’s confidence
- The surprising ways micromanaging shows up in daily routines, like cross ties, hoof care, and groundwork.
- The emotional toll of perfectionism and how to break free from it
Listening to this episode will help you learn to respond instead of resist, releasing the need to micromanage your horse. Because when you stop micromanaging, everything gets easier and more fun.
