In this video, I’m sitting down for a properly honest, unfiltered recap of my 2025 — not just the highlight-reel bits, but the stuff that was hard as well. If you’ve followed along with my weekly horsey vlogs, show days, and all the behind-the-scenes of juggling horses with vet physio student life in the UK, then you’ll know my year never looks the same week to week. This recap is me zooming out and talking about what really happened, what I learned, and what I’d do differently going forward. I take you through the big themes of the year: how my horses (and Luna) have shaped my routine, what “progress” actually looked like for me in training, and how I handled the moments where things felt heavy or uncertain. It’s reflective, a bit chatty, and very real — because I know so many of you are balancing your own riding goals with school, work, or just life. My main takeaway is that consistency and honesty beat perfection every single time, and it’s okay if your year includes both brilliant days and the ones you’d rather forget.
