Everything is related. Some personal stuff was affecting my riding and with Selina’s coaching I cleared the block and was back to competing my best.
It sounds simple now, it wasn’t simple when I was stuck.

Had the most amazing clinic today with Selina. Learnt so much both for the horse I took to the clinic but also for the youngster at home. Thank you so much Selina for your wisdom and advice, appreciated more than you can know. Feeling so much more confident and connected to my horses!

had always struggled with imposter syndrome and anxiety leading up to and on competition days, however, it was getting worse and occurring in the lead up to lessons or even just riding with others. I realised I needed help and Selina reached out. Honestly, the program is hard to explain. There is so much information that impacts and relates to people differently. Selina is so insightful and has a wonderful way of challenging your language or thinking in a kind and supportive way. I found I was self sabotaging myself through comparing to others, judging myself and my horse unfairly, and I was scared to acknowledge achievements ( no matter how small).
I discovered that I was scared to actually show up for my horse and myself. What a horrible feeling that would have been for my horses. I now have so much faith and trust in my horse, our connection and training plus feeling so much more confident to acknowledge our achievements.
I am feeling brave and courageous and really looking forward to competing this year. Thank you so much Selina!!
I recommend Selina’s program to absolutely anyone.
I found Equestrian Confidence one day when it flashed up on my newsfeed on Facebook.
It was like it screamed at me from through my phone, everything I was feeling with my horses and horse riding – anxiety, nerves, lack of motivation, where do I begin, all these things were holding me back from following my dreams and I had finally found an outlet that exactly understood all those feelings I was having. And the best part – offered a solution.
Of course, it took me some deliberation to contact Selina, I was having the same discussion and argument with myself that I did when it came to doing something with my horses.
It didn’t take long and I had started my phone coaching with Selina. Looking back on it, all I can say is wow. From the moments that happened in those weeks of coaching, the person who I was and the person I was being, then including so much that was conquered, it has all really altered my life in such a way that I now know that I am living on the path I am meant to be, a life that I had been dreaming of for so long, a life that I want.
I started riding again once I started my calls with Selina. I hadn’t ridden in about 18 months and the horse I brought into work hadn’t been ridden in at least 2/3 years. It was winter so the weather wasn’t great, the days got dark early and I was working full time, all excellent excuses for someone to not want to ride. This did not stop me, I found the motivation and drive that I was hiding in me, I kept riding. My horse was not easy and he tested me a lot. This did not stop me either, I found the courage I had in myself and began to trust my ability and I kept riding.
In 13 weeks, I went from a person who dreamed of riding to becoming a horse rider, competing a horse that had been sitting in a paddock for 3 years to a horse that was now a dressage diva that scored 10’s in his first ever Dressage tests and placed 3rd and 9th out of 40 riders, at a massive, busy competition of 800 combinations over various levels.
My everyday life, relationships, work life have all benefited from Selina’s coaching. I am able to make the right decisions for myself, no matter how daunting it may look at the time I trust myself now, I have motivation and I have courage to make anything I want possible.
Thank you Selina, I will always be grateful for the chapter you wrote into my life.
I don’t think I can put a value on Selina’s mindset coaching.
It’s priceless. You just don’t get that from any clinic that you go to. Everyone can be taught to ride better, but without the right mindset it doesn’t make a difference. My competition nerves were crippling. No matter how much more I learnt or practiced, it all fell apart when I rode into the camp / arena.
Since coaching I have won and placed and made women’s finals for ABCRA. That’s good, but what matters to me is I having fun again, even at competitions.

As a riding coach I saw first hand what Selina’s mindset coaching did for my clients, so I tried it myself. Results were amazing, not only personally, but in my business too.
A great bonus is that Selina’s techniques and tools are so simple and easy to apply that I can now use them during lessons with my clients; making it easier to coach them and achieving greater results.

When I came to Selina requesting coaching five months ago, I’d stopped believing in my long-harboured dreams. I tried to stay positive, but unconsciously I was disassociating myself from people out of shame, I couldn’t be one of ‘them’.
I didn’t know it back then, but Selina’s coaching was exactly what I’d been waiting for. No changes happened overnight, but within a month I had my old flame of ambition back (and a much more mature version of it), and I was amazed at what opportunities were starting to show up when I changed my mindset.
Within two months, I was almost craving situations that I’d find uncomfortable but could give me opportunities, and had secured a sponsorship from a major company – something that a couple of months earlier I wouldn’t have dreamed of. Three months of mindset coaching and I was really noticing a difference in the confidence in the way I trained.
Four months in and I’m totally committed to achieving my dreams, and because I am now the person who ‘can’ put themselves out there, confident that I will!
Four months ago, I felt stuck in a rut, and looked to the future with uncertainty and even anxiety. Now, I’m committed to and excited for the days, months and years ahead. I’m so grateful for my mindset coaching, and the best part is this is just the beginning!
Whether you are struggling to overcome a fear, battling lack of confidence in yourself, feeling a little ‘stuck’, or even feel like you might be responsible for holding yourself back, do yourself a favour and get in touch with Selina. I promise you will be so thankful that you did.
