In this episode, we’ll kick things off with an update from my ranch, I’ll share a story about one of the best horses I’ve ever owned — and the unexpected lesson I learned through her — and then we’ll dive deep into a crucial horsemanship topic: deciding whether or not to let someone else ride your horse. It’s a common question, and *spoiler alert* There's no one-size-fits-all answer, but this month we’ll explore the pros, cons, and everything in between, on this topic.

And at the end of the show, I’ll answer some excellent listener questions in our expanded What the Hay? Q&A segment — covering everything from clicker training without hand feeding, to physical fitness for older riders, to herd behavior, trailering challenges, bit selection, and more.
