Are you ready to unlock a new level of confidence and progress in your riding? In this episode of The Neil Foster Rider Mindset Podcast, we dive into the power of curiosity, a mindset tool that helps riders replace self-judgment with self-discovery.

So often, equestrians focus on discipline, courage, and determination, but curiosity is the missing ingredient that transforms mistakes into growth. When you get curious instead of critical, your brain learns faster, your confidence grows, and your connection with your horse deepens.

In this extended episode, Neil Foster, Equestrian Mindset Coach, shares: - What curiosity really means for riders - The neuroscience of curiosity and how it accelerates learning - Real stories of riders who used curiosity to overcome nerves, perfectionism, and fear - Practical tools and journaling prompts to build curiosity into your training and competitions

- Why curiosity builds lasting rider confidence

Whether you’re a dressage rider, showjumper, eventer, or simply love hacking, this episode will give you the mindset tools to ride with more calmness, clarity, and connection.

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
