This week on Unbridled Conversations, the girls are galloping straight down memory lane — but not before facing a controversial Normal or Neigh? Would you ever willingly start your ride without stirrups? Let’s just say… Hannah and Charlotte were very much in agreement on this one.Things quickly take a turn for the nostalgic after Hannah’s hilariously chaotic attempt to enter a recent show turned into a full-blown early-2000s throwback — complete with questionable tech, major confusion, and a bit of gaslighting (yes, she was robbed of her chance to compete and no, she’s not over it).From snail mail entries, polaroid pictures and cheque book fees , the girls are feelin’ their age and loving the trip back to simpler, pony-club-filled times. Tune in, reminisce, and don’t forget to send us your most horse girl nostalgic moments — the good, the cringey, and everything in between!Tune in and join the conversation!Connect with us and share your stories on Instagram and Facebook at @Unbridled.ConversationsTune in and join the conversation!

Needy or Necessary?
This week on Unbridled Conversations, we're getting real about expectations—specifically, the ones we place on our home team. You know the crew: your coach, vet, physio, dentist, farrier, saddle fitter, friends... the lot. They're the unsung heroes behind the scenes—but are we sometimes asking too much?We dive into the tricky territory of what's reasonable vs what's crossing the professional line. Think 10PM vet texts, emergency farrier calls for a pulled shoe, or sending your coach a full breakdown of your last competition ride (plus slow-mo replays, obviously).We get it—your horse is your whole world. But spoiler alert: they might not be everyone else’s. Let’s talk boundaries, mutual respect, and finding that elusive balance between passion and professionalism.Plus, this week’s Normal or Neigh?! has us absolutely stumped—we’re still trying to figure out how it even makes sense?!

The Weight of it All
This week on Unbridled Conversations, we’re feeling the weight of it all—literally.First up, Normal or Neigh takes us back to Episode 4: Layers or Liners, where an Instagram follower shares what they think is a game-changing rug hack… but Charlotte has some serious concerns. Is it brilliant or a bust? You decide!Then, the girls dive headfirst into a tough but necessary conversation: rider weight. It’s a topic that makes many uncomfortable, but ignoring it doesn’t make it go away. With their signature honesty, humor, and horse-first mindset, they tackle it from all angles—because at the end of the day, our horses don’t get to choose their riders, and welfare must come first.Unfiltered. Uncensored. Uncomfortably honest. But always for the horse.

Fashion Faux Pas
This week on Unbridled Conversations, things get wildly off-track as we dive into the world of equestrian fashion faux pas! It all kicks off with a Normal or Neigh that has us questioning if mismatching has finally gone too far—seriously, even the colorblind would be confused.From matchy-matchy madness to chaotic colour choices, the girls tackle it all:Coloured ears? Hard pass.Waist jackets and paisley silks? Absolutely not.Croc, patent, aubergine boots? Please, make it stop.Where do you stand? Are you a lover of bold, bright chaos, or do you stick to classic, traditional styles? Join the conversation and let's talk all things equestrian fashion!
