Hi everyone, and welcome to my new Insta page! 🙋🏼♀️ . For those who don't know me, my name is Katie, and I'm an Aussie Mum in my 30's, who's getting back into riding after a crazy long break 🏇 . The short version is that after 2 years of covid lockdowns (during which I had my second daughter) I decided that this was the year I was going to start doing something for me again. I was going to get back on my horse, and we'd be in the show ring before the year was out... And then 2022 laughed, and said 'heh, hold my beer...' 🙈 . $20k worth of uncontrollables happened within a month, and yet another year was written off before it had really begun. With my hubby (Jay) working mega overtime, I lost my spotter and kid wrangler, which meant riding was out of the question, which ALSO meant I had to put my business and my dreams back on hiatus for the third year in a row. . As you can imagine, it took a huge toll on our mental health, and we then all took turns having all sorts of health dramas, just to top it all off. It never rains, haha! 😅 . HOWEVER, life likes to challenge everyone from time to time, and I've decided to say 'fk it, let's just work with what we've got' 💪😁 . Looking at the positives - the bigger workload at home has given me mad time management skills, I'm an earlier riser, the horses are in great nick, and all the other ducks are slowly lining up. The only thing stopping me now, is me - which is great, because that's something I CAN control 🥰 . This Insta page is going to chronicle my journey from 'unfit, cranky, house-bound Mum' to 'happy, healthy, riding-lots Mum'! . I need to get fit, start all my physio work from scratch, tighten up the screws on the diet, change my sleep pattern, and train my horse... . It'll be a big journey, but I'm honestly excited as hell! . Big love, K xx 😘 . #equestrian #ottb #dressage #dressagerider #showrider #hunterhack #riddenhunter #showhunter #journey #fitness #mentalhealth #ottbdressage #showhorse #fitnessjourney #postpartum #equestrianmum #horsemum #equestrianlife #positivity #health #motivation #instagood #inspiration #determination #chasethosedreams (at KRequestrian) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjKReovrp5L/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
