BROKE HORSE MOMS

🐎 BHM: The podcast is LIVE! 🎉

Published 3 months ago • 1 min read

Hi Reader!

Today’s the day! The Broke Horse Moms podcast is officially live with two brand-new episodes:

🎙 My Broke Horse Mom Story​
How we stumbled into this wild sport, the ups and downs we’ve faced in just four short years, and why I knew this community had to be created.

🎙 Finding Our Own Fun in the Horse World with Jen Nelson​
Jen is a fellow horse mom, rider, and co-founder of Armor Equestrian (think sparkle, glitter, and FUN). We chat through how to create space for US in the horse world, beyond JUST being a horse mom.

Fun fact: Use code BHM at checkout on the Armor Equestrian site for 15% off your order!

These episodes give you a feel for what the show is all about, but they’re just the beginning. Coming up over the next few weeks:

  • Next week, we'll have our first Barn Basics episode where I dive DEEP into the idea of leasing a horse (aka...RENTING a horse)
  • After that, I'm chatting with the co-founder of Riders Rent to dig into all things show apparel, where to splurge and how to save.

🎧 Quick links to listen:

New to podcasts? No worries! Hit reply and I’ll help you get set up.

If you’re loving Broke Horse Moms, here’s how you can support:

  1. Rate & review on Apple or Spotify after you listen.
  2. Share the show with a friend - there’s a handy share button in your podcast app to text it straight to your barn besties.

That’s all for this week - thanks for being here from the very start.

Gallop on, mama!

We thought it was a phase.

A podcast and newsletter for every horse show-tired + muck boot-wearing mama who’s trying to figure out what the hell she signed up for. You’ve got questions, Venmo receipts and way too many saddle pads.​ And now, you’ve got a community that gets it. Join the Broke Horse Moms newsletter for weekly behind-the-scenes extras, show season survival tips, gear recs, horse mom life hacks, and everything we wish someone told us when our kids decided to 'try' horseback riding. Join our virtual barn family!

Hi Reader, First off: It's SNOWING in Virginia! Which is gorgeous AND ALSO I know I'll be freezing at the barn later. Pro-broke horse mom tip: Pack your car with snacks, work, books, etc AND ALSO pack your coat and all your winter gear. I just got our replacement Carhartt winter gloves, linked in the Holiday Gift Guide, because WHY would be able to find the ones we used last winter?? My car packed for the barn in the winter is a combo of an office on wheels, a small pantry, and a coat closet....

Hi Reader, Today's episode of Broke Horse Moms might just be my favorite so far. One thing I've spent hours pondering and chatting about with friends, trainers, and non-horsey folks is just how expensive this sport is and how hard it is to step into it without any type of horsey background. 🎙️ Affordability + Accessibility in the Horse World with Piper Klemm Enter....Dr. Piper Klemm, publisher and editor of The Plaid Horse Magazine, host of The Plaidcast podcast and a widely respected leader...
