This week on Beyond The Stable, we’re joined by the lovely Susie, better known as In the Saddle Susie! You might recognize her from her appearances in Emily Dobson’s vlogs or her inspiring journey of getting back into horses.
In this episode, Susie shares her story of overcoming childhood bullying at the riding school and how it led her to stop jumping—until a spark at Emily’s wedding reignited her passion for horses and cemented their friendship. We chat about Sprite, her very first in-hand showing competition, and whether getting her own horse might be next on the horizon.
Susie also gives us an exclusive look into what it’s really like being a personal assistant to equestrian icons like Emily Dobson, Tina Wallace, and Hannah Francis. From managing emails to the behind-the-scenes of eventing vlogs, Susie spills all the details. Plus, she opens up about her business and offers fantastic advice for anyone looking to start their own business.
It’s a heartfelt, inspiring, and truly insightful episode that you won’t want to miss!
