About this listen

Hello! Welcome to the Equestrian Mums Club. We're THE community hub for parents with horses and children. We're your hosts, Katie Allen-Clarke and Sophie Conway - UK-based equestrians who happen to be parents. From pregnancy to the first 2 years of your little bundle’s life (and beyond!), we’re creating content you can laugh at, cry at and resonate with. Parenthood is a major change in anyone’s life - but with four-legged dependents, too, the pressure and guilt can be even greater. But, you are not alone... Join us as we navigate the world of ponies and parenting, together.Equestrian Mums Club Parenting & Families Relationships

  • #49 Ponies, personal hygiene(!) and cries for help | Equestrian Mums Club
    May 29 2025

    Where else can you find a podcast that truly gives you the realest of deals...?! We promised to discuss with you the rough and the smooth of the pony parenting journey - and this episode is no different... From clingy babies to nervous sweat, personal hygiene chats, awkward toddler heckling and MUCH more.


    And, we've got horsey challenges to scale too - from Katie's bitey yearling, to Sophie's puddle-phobic youngster and a few wild rides with Katie's ridden mare, Lottie.


    We've chosen the equestrian parenting life, and it would seem that sanity has flown the nest as a result!


    This episode, listeners, we're looking for your help with a few of our pony and parenting woes. Can you give us a helping hoof with any of the following topics? If so, let us know, and we could well be featuring you in an upcoming podcast episode!

    • Hot topic 1: Biting in young horses (& how to stop it!)
    • Hot topic 2: Training the young horse to embrace water
    • Hot topic 3: Juggling the horse fitness and workload with limited time to train


    As always, we so value our community's thoughts and experience - so please do get in touch... we'd love to hear from you!

  • #48 Return of the... Tack? A LONG overdue catch up | Equestrian Mums Club
    Apr 3 2025

    Oh... HI there, Equestrian Mums Club listeners! We're sorry for leaving you in the cold, for so long...


    In this episode, we're reconnecting with listeners after a long break of podcasting - due to the irony of equestrian parenting! BUT, we're refocussing our efforts on creating content that makes you feel seen and heard, and letting you in on the challenges we've been facing on our own equestrian parenting journeys, too.


    Katie tells us more about her challenges of juggling work, moving house and toddlerhood! And, Sophie tells us a little more about how she's stumbling through "the swamp" of newborn life again, whilst also struggling with the grief of losing her heart horse, Oscar and beloved dog, Peggy. More than ever, we need your connection, too!


    Plus, we mention the sad post-ponement (geddit?!) of the inaugural EMC Confidence Clinic at West Wilts - in case you'd not gotten the memo.


    We're making plans to bring you some joy - so join us again for a wild ride, with a few parenting-related obstacles along the way.

  • #47 Here's to 2025! | Equestrian Mums Club
    Jan 16 2025

    Well, HELLO THERE, 2025! Nice to meet you.

    In this episode of the Equestrian Mums Club podcast - after a brief hiatus since the end of 2024 - we catch listeners up on our lives, discussing our children, horses, and recent experiences.

    We reconnect with listeners after a little break from recording, chat about how a New Year often puts the pressure on for big goals (and how we're not in that zone!) and the importance of avoiding overwhelm as a parent.

    Sophie gives us an update on equestrian parenting life with two - as little Ruby is now 3 months old! Plus, she gives us an honest insight into the struggles she's finding with her riding confidence since having babies - especially now she has a young horse to bring on in Trev.

    Katie updates listeners on her (unintended) herd of four-leggeds and how her little one, Rafe, is getting on. Plus, she shares a mental health update, too - which may resonate with some of our listeners.

    Lastly, we have a good chat about the first EVER Equestrian Mums Club event - coming to West Wilts Equestrian Centre on 21st March 2025! Find out more about what it includes, what our vision is for the day and why we decided to run it.

    TLDR? Get to know us a little bit more, as well as some updates on exciting plans for the Equestrian Mums Club in the next few months!
