I’m looking for 10 riders who want to feel calmer, more confident, and back in control in the saddle — without spending hours on mindset work.

I’m running a free 7-Day Rider Confidence Challenge, and I’m opening it up to a small group of riders who are ready to:

👉🏻Break the cycle of nerves
👉🏻Replace negative thoughts with calm, clear focus
👉🏻Enjoy their horse again — at home or in the competition arena

If you’d love support, practical tools, and guided confidence techniques (all taking just a few minutes a day)… comment “CHALLENGE” and I’ll send you the link.

Limited to just 10 riders 💛

I recently spoke about how hypnotherapy can really help riders (and business owners). Check out this description and let me know if it resonates. Horse riding is a lifetsyle, not just a hobby!

Zoe really struggled with nerves before riding. It held her back, made her ill and limited her riding, big time.

Check out her full review below.

If this resonates with you and you want to regain your confidence, check out our instant hypnotherapy downloads designed for riders, or get in touch for some 121 sessions.

"I've been working with Kerry now for a few months around my breakdown in confidence riding. Having had a lot of bad experiences with my first horse I was stuck in a negative pattern of fear, even on the safest of horses I would be a mess before riding, with every excuse in the book not to ride.
We've worked through where those fears came from, broken through some old systems that were failing me, and put together a tool kit to help me build more positive thought processes.
I'm back in the saddle regularly now, it's not perfect, but I no longer have the sickening dread in the run up to a ride. If I do feel anxious when riding I feel I can now deal with it using my toolkit. And you know what? My horse really appreciates it.... maybe too much, my old plod is now a pocket rocket who wants to canter everywhere. And the best bit? I can laugh it off and actually enjoy it 🤣
Bomber says thanks Kerry 🥰"

A great testimonial from Zoe who I worked with earlier this year. She put the work in and after just a few sessions feels in control, confident and having fun again.

NEW BLOG POST - What to expect from Hypnotherapy.

"No, You Won't Start Clucking Like a Chicken" - Understand hypnotherapy for equestrians.

Let's bust myths:

✖ "You'll lose control" → You're fully aware (like daydreaming in the car)

✖ "It's mind control" → You can't be made to do anything against your will

✖ "Only for 'serious' issues" → Works for everything from show nerves to hacking fear

Last weekend I had entered a competition. But after suffering from a cold all week, having 2 sick babies and a busy week at work, getting out on a Sunday morning was the last thing I wanted to do.

So what did I do..... I reset my expectations of the day. I gave myself permission to decide I just wouldn't go. I gave myself permission to take it easy and not expect winning marks. I even gave myself permission not to plait (but I couldn't resist with the spare 30 mins I had in the morning!).

Instead I chose to go and focus on how Bertie was feeling and trying out some new moves (hello counter canter - eek).

And do you know what, I had a lovely morning out, seeing some friends at the yard for some encouragement, spending time appreciating my boy and getting some sunny fresh air!

But I have decided to put a pause on any more outings until after Christmas as it's just one thing too many on my overall mental well being.

What do you need to give yourself permission to do? Anyone else feeling like this at the moment!

Things have been a bit busy recently........

And so taking my own advice I have given myself permission to take a step back on a few things, and sadly that involves posting on here!

That's not to say we haven't been busy.

> Giving talks to a group of brilliant local female business owners about how to regain their confidence
> Creating new audio downloads including for perimenopause and general anxiety
> Wrapping up with some clients who have turned things around in just 3 sessions!
> Getting refreshed headshots
> Enjoying my own horse and stepping up into Novice Dressage

Alongside working full time, looking after twin babies and having a small social life!

I will be sharing more in the coming weeks but for now, here is a proud horse mum moment yesterday with Bertie
