About
Hi there! My name is Kaitlyn, and I'm a twenty-something lifelong equestrian who lives in Ontario, Canada. I grew up in the hunter/jumper world, and have been on a journey of self-improvement for both myself and my relationship to horses over the last few years. I hope to use this channel as a space to share my journey bringing along Merlin, my young warmblood, and to encourage others to develop deeper, more meaningful relationships with their horses through humane, science-based horse training. I want this to be a positive space that reflects the everyday experiences of an average equestrian with a normal job (or three), a boatload of student loan debt, and a deep love for these beautiful animals. I want to show where I am as an equestrian, but also where I've been and where I'm going - reflections and future goals. If any of this sounds interesting to you, please subscribe!
