Growing Confidence

Bridle Up Hope has changed my life, and definitely for the better. I'm a very self-conscious, people-pleasing girl, and I never really knew how to say no to someone because I always felt so bad about it. But after my time at Bridle Up Hope, I feel so much more confident in myself and much happier overall. I absolutely love horses and have since I was little. Just being around the horses and my amazing trainer, Audrie, who helped me grow my confidence and unconditional love for horses, has been incredible. I can't wait to continue this journey with Bridle Up Hope. Thank you for giving me the hope to "bridle up."

I definitely think that beginning with the end in mind has helped me the most; it has helped me set goals and actually reach them. A horse that has changed my life is Winston. He feels like my best friend, and he still does. I love him like he's my own horse. The way we clicked helped me feel safe and loved, like I will always have someone to turn to. My favorite lesson was any lesson I did with Winston. He was always a happy space for me, and I got to share his happiness. Bridle Up Hope has changed my life forever, and I love doing service and being around the horses. Thank you for everything, Bridle Up Hope!
