Ocala Experience, Broken Backs, And Voluntary Horse Show Attire

We Are At Our Limit... | Horse Show Hangover

This week on Katching Up With Katie, we're catching up after an incredible weekend at the Roan World Show! 🏆🐴 I'm excited to share all about Kennedy's World Championship, the ups and downs of showing, and why this show meant so much to me. We're also chatting about what makes the Roan World Show different from other major horse shows, how Quarter Horse and color registries work, and clearing up some of the questions I've been seeing. Of course, it wouldn't be Katching Up With Katie without plenty of random rabbit trails along the way—from babies and horse people to vacation ideas, future trail rides, and some fun behind-the-scenes stories from the farm. I'd love to hear from you! What's your dream horse event to attend? And don't forget to leave your best suggestion for our future team-building trip in the comments! #HorseVlog #FarmLife #Equestrian #KatchingUpWithKatie #QuarterHorse #HorseShow Chapters: 0:00 Welcome Back & Horse Show Recap 9:11 Understanding Stock Horse Breeds & World Shows 14:45 Kennedy's Go at the Show 20:08 Suits & Cowboy Hats 24:28 Horse Show Trophies 26:30 Future Show Plans 30:50 Rachel's Horse Chrome 36:09 Sip and Saddle 41:11 Cruises, Vegas & Team Building Trip ▶Check out my new merch: https://katievanslyke.net/collections/new [https://katievanslyke.net/collections/new] ▶▶DIGITAL DOWNLOADS: https://katievanslyke.net/collections/digital-downloads [https://katievanslyke.net/collections/digital-downloads] ========================================================== ▶▶▶Connect With Me!

I always love getting to sit down, catch up with the crew, and let y'all get to know us a little better beyond the horses and farm life. I'd love to hear from you!

We Needed To Clear The Air...

Life has been BUSY lately, but we're finally sitting down for another Katching Up With Katie! 💕 My husband is on the podcast today, and we're catching up on everything from his Canada bear hunt to farm projects, Dungeons & Dragons, future dreams for Running Springs, and answering some of your funniest questions. We talk about what life has really been like behind the scenes, how our farm and business have grown over the years, what it's like balancing social media with real life, and even put Jonathan to the test to see how many horses he can name under pressure! I always love these slower, more personal episodes because they give us a chance to catch up beyond the horses and foals. Thank you all for supporting our little corner of the internet and making this community so special. 🐴💕 Let us know in the comments what questions you'd like us to answer in a future episode and if you're actually on board with the whole Ham and Cheese idea.

My Best Friend Is Back...And I'm Telling Her EVERYTHING

We just got back from Kentucky and I needed to debrief with my bestie so here we are 🐴 Dani has been behind the scenes at Running Springs for almost two years now and a lot of you have been asking about her so we figured it was time to bring her back on. We talk through how we met back when I was 16 through my old show horse Kalvin, how she ended up moving to Tennessee, and what she actually does to keep this whole operation from falling apart. Then we get into the Kentucky horse show deep dive because there was a lot to unpack. I showed three completely different horses in the same show and we break down what that is actually like, how Denver's first western pleasure class went, what Aaron discovered about Kennedy that kind of changed everything for us, and the very real differences between riding Hollywood, Denver, and Kennedy back to back. Piaffe in a western pleasure warm up pen. We did that. We also get into why western pleasure is actually a fantastic entry level discipline, and I break down the new AQHA level system for anyone who has been confused by the shift from novice to levels one, two, and three. If you have more questions about the horse show world or anything else you want Dani and I to cover, drop them in the comments because we would love to make this a regular thing.

Stephanie is back on Katching Up With Katie and we have a lot to cover. We start with the story of how Katie got double barreled by Bobbi while trying to draw blood on a sick Rikki, which resulted in a bruise so bad that everyone on the property now has a photo of her butt. It is exactly what it sounds like. Then we get into viewer questions for Stephanie, talking through three months at Running Springs, who her favorite horses are, and what it is actually like starting a stud colt versus a gelding or filly. Wally gets a full segment because he deserves it. Stephanie also had a baby. Not a human baby. A little buckskin colt named Jimmy by Lazy Loper out of her mare Pinky and we talk through what the plan is for him. We also get into weaning season coming up, the Squirt vs Matt incident that Matt claims is getting more dramatic every year, Karen being overdue, and what it is going to take to get ready for Kentucky.
