Hi my name is Lauren is this is horse Newt. He’s an 11 year old ex racehorse and our journey from the get go has been filled with highs and very low lows. This journey has tested me physically, mentally and financially (normally all at once). If I wasn’t dealing with a vet bill, I was trying to navigate the thousands of different opinions from people around me aswell as my own limiting beliefs after knocking my head in a bad fall. It felt like I was trying to navigate this world with no map, there was no guidance only more things to add onto my already swirling head.

It got to a point where I was really down and completely overwhelmed. I had had enough and knew I needed to do something, so I sat down and did what I do best research and compile into one relevant “all areas covered” book. I’m not some horse whisperer nore will I ever claim to be, I’m someone that’s borderline obsessive about bettering my horses life, I’ve tried and failed over and over until I’ve found what’s worked on me, and worked on others. Think of the journal as your own pa, something that outlines all of the areas you need to cover, then you just have to go through and do it. I’ve taken the thinking out of it for you so you can get to your goals QUICKER and EASIER.

Mental health doesn’t seem to be a conversation amongst us horse folk, but I would love for this to be a community where we all help each other.
