What if the reason your Mustang isn't progressing has nothing to do with the horse?Brittany and Jana continued to see the same problem, individuals who adopted a Mustang, but didn't know where to turn when it became difficult. Sending the horse off to the trainer was often ineffective because, while the horse progressed, the owner stayed the same. Jana Leniger, owner of Chasing a Dream Equine and virtual riding coach, works with Mustang adopters who want to do the training themselves instead of sending their horse away. Brittany Ference, Executive Director of Great Escape Mustangs, runs a nonprofit that supports Mustangs off-range through sanctuary and adopter education. Together, they created the Wild Horse Partnership Program—a three-month coaching intensive that keeps Mustangs in their adopted homes by empowering owners with the skills, confidence, and accountability they need to build a lasting partnership with their horse.In this episode, you'll discover:• Why the "send to trainer for 90 days" model fails Mustang adopters (and what works instead)• How 90 minutes a week with your horse creates more long-term success than 90 days with a professional• Why people with no horse experience sometimes progress faster than experienced riders with Mustangs• The real reason adopters feel like giving up (hint: it's not the horse)• Why choosing a Mustang based on color instead of character sets you up for failure• How accountability and customized support keep horses in their homesThis episode is for anyone who's adopted a Mustang and feels stuck, overwhelmed, or ready to give up—and anyone considering adoption who wants to know what it really takes to succeed.Get your free guide:Download the 5-Minute Emotional Reset: https://thetouchofamustang.org/get-your-free-reset/Ready for personalized support?Book a free 30-minute consultation (only 5 spots available per month): https://calendly.com/thetouchofamustang/free-30-minute-coaching-sessionDeepen your practice:Get the Emotional Mastery Journal - your 6-month guide to emotional awareness and regulation: https://www.amazon.com/Emotional-Mastery-Journal-Shalyce Cluff/dp/B0DQXV59SWJoin the herd:Support the podcast and get exclusive content, guided meditations, monthly Q&As, and more: https://ko-fi.com/thetouchofamustangLove the podcast?Leave a review so others can find the show!Connect with The Touch of a Mustang:Website: https://thetouchofamustang.org/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thetouchofamustang/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheTouchofaMustangConnect with Jana Leniger & Brittany Ference:Wild Horse Partnership Program: https://www.greatescapemustangs.org/wild-horse-partnership-programInstagram:@greatescapemustangs (Brittany)@chasingadreamequine (Jana)Facebook: Great Escape Mustangs | https://www.facebook.com/greatescapemustangs Chasing a Dream Equine | https://www.facebook.com/ChasingADreamEquine
