[ Episode 0 ] Trailer & About Us

This Because Pony: the podcast designed to help young equestrians who have big goals but don’t know where to start. Your hosts are Emilie (a barn manager/assistant trainer and artist on the side) and Maeve (a working student AND college student)...with occasional help from Bilbo the Tibetan Terrier and Theo the Corgi. In this episode, we talk all about working student jobs - what is a working student? How do you get started? What if you’re too young to start? How do you decide if this is right for you? We’d love to hear from you - what advice would you give to someone starting a job as a working student? Follow us!

This is Because Pony: the podcast designed to help young equestrians who have big goals but don’t have access to educational, financial, or development opportunities that a traditional barn community might give them. We’re here to share ideas and encouragement - from pro tips, to personal stories; from side hustles, to barn hacks. Life with horses brings us together…we do it because of the ponies! Your hosts are Emilie (a barn manager/assistant trainer and artist on the side) and Maeve (a working student AND college student)...with occasional help from Bilbo the Tibetan Terrier and Theo the Corgi.
