Géraldine Straumann: Switzerland’s Brightest Young Talent, Rising with Heart and Humility
Description
This episode marks the first of our special Geneva specials, and who better to kick things off than the future of Swiss show jumping herself? Yes, you heard that right. At just 20 years old, she made her 5* Nations Cup debut in Calgary, arguably the toughest show on the calendar. Today, we're joined by Géraldine Straumann.
In this episode, you’ll get to know Géraldine: her incredible journey so far, how she met her dream horse, the iconic Long John Silver, she also shares the important role her family plays in her career, the decision to leave Switzerland and join the Schou Stables, and, of course, a series of memorable anecdotes that have shaped her path.
As always, what matters most to us is getting to know the person behind the rider. And Géraldine? She’s truly one of the kindest, most thoughtful people we’ve had the pleasure of speaking with: curious, open-minded, and always eager to learn.
We had such a great time recording this episode with her, and we’re sure you’re going to enjoy it just as much.
