Horse Training That Builds Confidence: How to Challenge Without Overwhelming Your Horse

Ever wonder if you're asking too much… or not enough?

In this episode, Corina unpacks the art of finding that sweet spot in your training — where learning is fun, curiosity is alive, and trust is never compromised. Whether you're teaching something new or refining the basics, how you present the challenge can either build your horse’s confidence or trigger their survival response.

You’ll learn:

  • How the equine brain responds to pressure and success

  • What “dopamine moments” are and why they matter

  • Real stories of liberty training breakthroughs through micro-wins

  • Why joy and safety go hand in hand when it comes to progress

If you’ve ever felt stuck between doing too much and not enough — this episode will help you find the rhythm where learning feels light, playful, and connected.
