Equestrian Mama
Equestrian Mama
Podcast Description
Welcome to the podcast where the love of horses meets the journey of motherhood. As riders, our connection to horses goes beyond passion; it’s a commitment that pulls us out of bed before dawn and has us knee-deep in barn chores while others relax. Now, as mothers, we’re finding a new kind of love and resilience. This podcast is a gathering place for equestrian mamas seeking camaraderie, insights, and inspiration. Each episode explores the beautiful chaos of raising kids and riding, sharing the challenges and magic that only an Equestrian Mama understands.

This week, I’m joined by Sarah Farrell (@annietheoneeyedhunter) for a conversation about identity shifts, infertility, horses, and finding your footing in a completely new season of life.
Sarah shares her journey from professional groom to amateur rider, and how that transition unexpectedly opened the door to something new. We talk candidly about her path to motherhood through six rounds of IUI and IVF, the emotional realities of trying to conceive, and the life that follows.
We also dive into her new venture, Groom School, resources designed to help amateur riders feel more confident caring for and managing their own horses.
This episode is honest, thoughtful, funny, and incredibly relatable for anyone who’s ever had to rebuild their identity inside or outside the barn.
