Is This The Right Trainer For You? - #203

Finding the right trainer can feel overwhelming. Do you stick with the one you’ve got, or is it time to move on? Is there even such a thing as the perfect trainer?

In this week’s episode, I and Lorna dive into one of the most common, and often tricky - questions riders ask: How do you know if a trainer is right for you?

Together, we explore:

• Why “perfect” doesn’t exist (and why aiming for 80% is a much healthier goal).
• The importance of understanding your learning style and values when choosing a coach.
• How your stage in the riding journey influences the kind of trainer you need.
• When to give a trainer time, and when it’s okay to walk away.
• The role your mindset plays in getting value out of any lesson.
• Why a trainer with a growth mindset is absolute gold.

Whether you’re feeling stuck, doubting your current setup, or just curious about how to make better choices in your training, this conversation will give you clarity and practical ways to reflect on what you really need.
