I found this episode so helpful and interesting, especially in the midst of figuring out my own horse’s saddle fit issues with obvious pain indicators from my horse. Have you ever thought about hosting a live video so people could ask questions too? I have so many questions after listening to this video relating to taking into account young horses/varied training levels, personalities, seasonality, etc! Thanks so much again for sharing your knowledge
