When a Horse Learns You Will Listen

HORSE, FIRST - with Lockie Phillips ·

2026/04/01

Send us Fan Mail In this episode of Horse First, Lockie Phillips explores the delicate moment when a horse begins to trust that their communication will be met with attention, not override. Beyond compliance and beyond silence, this is where real partnership starts to form: a horse who can follow guidance without disappearing, and a human who can lead without crowding the space. A reflective and hopeful conversation about advocacy, clarity, and the kind of training that becomes possible when ...

When Anxiety Takes Up the Room

HORSE, FIRST - with Lockie Phillips ·

2026/03/18

Send us Fan Mail In this episode of Horse First, Lockie Phillips explores a quieter form of dominance that often goes unnamed in horse culture: the way human anxiety, overthinking, and unresolved tension can fill the space around a horse, even in the absence of force. When a handler’s internal experience becomes the centre of gravity, horses adapt by shrinking, complying, or going quiet. This conversation offers a steady lens on proportion, regulation, and what it means to truly make room for...

2026/03/13

Send a text In this episode of Horse First, Lockie Phillips sits down with Amanda Held, a horsewoman working at the intersection of therapeutic horsemanship and horse behaviour. Drawing from years of experience in equine-assisted programs, Amanda shares insights into how horses communicate their internal state and why reading those signals matters deeply when horses are asked to support human healing. Together they explore the potential blind spots within equine therapy settings, the responsi...

The Skill of Not Rushing

HORSE, FIRST - with Lockie Phillips ·

2026/03/04

Send a text In this episode of Horse First, Lockie Phillips explores why urgency runs so deep in horse culture, and why slowing down is often the most competent choice we can make. When speed gets mistaken for discipline, horses lose space to learn, communicate, and stay whole. This conversation looks at the myth that faster means better, the reality of changing capacity in both horse and human, and the quiet strength of choosing accuracy over appearance. A grounding invitation to breathe, re...

The Cost of Ignoring the Body (with Becks Nairn)

HORSE, FIRST - with Lockie Phillips ·

2026/02/25

Send a text In this episode of Horse First, Lockie Phillips is joined by Becks Nairn, equine dissectionist, educator, and long-time advocate working across rescue, education, and welfare. Becks brings an anatomically grounded lens to questions of behaviour and performance, challenging many of the stories we’ve been taught to tell about “problem horses.” Together, they explore what the body reveals about pain, adaptation, and compensation, and what this knowledge demands of us when it comes to...

Love Isn’t the Measure

HORSE, FIRST - with Lockie Phillips ·

2026/02/18

Send a text In this episode of Horse First, Lockie Phillips explores the uneasy but essential truth that good intentions don’t always prevent harm. Impact and blame are not the same thing, and horses need our clarity far more than our guilt. Together, we unpack how love can create blind spots, why discomfort is often a sign of growth, and what accountability looks like when it makes us more capable instead of smaller. A steady conversation for anyone learning to stay open, listen deeper, and ...

Send a text In this special episode of Horse First, Lockie Phillips is joined by Kat HoSoo Lee for a conversation on the Year of the Fire Horse. Together, they explore what it means to move through a season of intensity, transformation, and truth-telling, both in ourselves and in horse culture. This is an episode about heat and clarity, about the parts of horsemanship that can no longer be performed or avoided, and the kind of courage it takes to stay present when old patterns burn away. A re...

Noticing Normal

HORSE, FIRST - with Lockie Phillips ·

2026/02/05

Send us a text Noticing Normal is an episode about the quiet ways harm can hide inside routine, especially in horse culture, where “this is just how it’s done” can slowly replace curiosity. Lockie Phillips explores how familiarity dulls perception, how the horse world teaches us what not to see, and the subtle signs horses offer long before anything breaks down. This isn’t a conversation about blame, it’s an invitation to wake back up, to question what’s become ordinary, and to remember that ...

2025/11/01

The first step to permanent change for the better, is acceptance of the truth of what we currently have. And the truth is, the horse industry has a BIG problem with big violence, at every level, in many forms, in many disciplines and every country. Nobodies hands are clean. The time has come to get off the fence, and make real steps forward. I am building a community for people who denounce stories like this and are fully ready to move forwards. It is accessibl...
