• Riding, Coaching and Takeaway Cocktails with Henry Boswell
    Jul 20 2021
    This week I was joined by top dressage rider, Henry Boswell, who talked about the highs and lows of being a professional rider, how to pick yourself up when self doubt creeps in, and resisting the urge to order take away cocktails! What a humble, down-to-earth, but hugely knowledgeable guy Henry is - I hope you enjoy listening to this as much as I enjoyed recording it.

  • Just Ali: Accepting Disappointment
    Jul 12 2021
    Disappointment is an odd thing. You're deflated, upset, annoyed, angry all at once. When you're involved with horses, it's something you have to learn to deal with. But if it's so common, why don't we talk about it more?

  • Dealing with Injuries and Social Media Haters with Joanna Thurman-Baker
    Jul 5 2021
    Joanna Thurman-Baker rode her first Grand Prix dressage test at the age of 20, on a self-produced horse. Not only is she an exceptional rider, she's also a gorgeous person. I've been social media buddies with Joanna for a good few years, but it was only very recently that we got to sit down together for a good old virtual chat! We talked about her injuries and how she recovered, as well as touching on a subject I feel very strongly about: social media hate. Hope you enjoy!

  • Mental Health Matters with Toni Clark
    Jun 21 2021
    Toni Clark, one of our Anti-Burnout Ambassadors, joined me for a chat one rainy Monday, and she totally cheered up my day, despite the heavy topic. It just goes to show talking about mental health doesn't have to be doom and gloom. Toni was so refreshingly open about her own mental health struggles, and I'm sure there are plenty of people out there who can relate. Check out Toni's Intagram: @the_cobby_chronicles

  • Just Ali: Realistic Goal Setting
    Jun 14 2021
    As an equestrian coach, I have conversations on the daily about goals. I love setting ambitious goals with my lovely clients, but one thing we always make sure of, is that they are REALISTIC... But what's realistic for one person is unrealistic for another. And that doesn't just take ability into account. It's about how much energy you can put towards a goal. Listen for Ali's take on this!
