Learn more Monty Roberts Available for Select Interviews: The New York Times bestselling author and world-renowned horse trainer Monty Roberts is available for interviews. Monty Roberts first gained widespread fame with the release of his New York Times Best Selling book, The Man Who Listens To Horses; a chronicle of his life and development of his non-violent horse training methods called Join-Up®. Monty grew up on a working horse farm as a firsthand witness to traditional, often violent methods of horse training and breaking the spirit with an abusive hand. Rejecting that, he went on to win nine world’s championships in the show ring. Today, Monty’s goal is to share his message that “Violence is never the answer.” Roberts has been encouraged by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II with the award of the Membership in The Royal Victorian Order, as well as becoming Patron of Join-Up International. Other honors received were the ASPCA “Founders” award and the MSPCA George T. Angell Humanitarian Award and FEI’s Man of the Year. Monty was recently included as Horse and Hound Magazine’s Top 50 Horsemen of All Time. Monty is credited with launching the first of its kind Equus Online University; an interactive online lesson site that is the definitive learning tool for violence-free training. The Movement “A movement started in the horse industry when horse owners began to have a clearer vision of how horses affected humans in positive way. Inspired by how interchangeable the lessons from herd behavior were, I’ve watched trainers, teachers, mothers and managers become better communicators, leaders and influencers for good. This year’s presenters are each amazing in their industries and they all have a vision of a better world, inspired by incorporating horses in their own story. They come to share that vision and build on it with participants who will take home a life-changing plan. Leaders may inspire, but only when people choose to act does a vision become a movement,” said Debbie Roberts Loucks who manages the event. This unique event helps you better understand problem solving using violence-free training methods. People come and spend time with like-minded people absorbing what non-violent communication can be and enjoy discussions with Monty and students from around the world.

The Freelance Remuda’s 40th Episode Spotlights Varying Media Platforms, Launches New Podcast Format
The Freelance Remuda celebrated its 40th episode in the multi-year series with changes—a new logo, new segment format and discussion of new trends in equine media. Hosts Abigail Boatwright and Kate Bradley Byars welcomed Horse & Rider magazine’s editor for “Episode 40: Broadening Media Platforms with Nichole Chirico.” The Freelance Remuda Podcast is produced for freelance professionals who are navigating the equine media frontier. It’s available on freelanceremuda.com, through Apple Podcasts and Libsyn, and now Spotify and Stitcher. The episode, which launched on June 28, includes three segments starting with the hosts discussing a successful American Horse Publications Equine Media Conference, where the podcast was awarded second place for the 2021 produced “Episode 37: Discussing Graphic Design with Ashley Shifflet.” Byars and Boatwright also received equine media awards for writing and photography assignments. Chirico makes an appearance in segment two where she talks about her rise in the Horse & Rider ranks to editor as well as producer of the Horse & Rider OnDemand online subscription platform. Her tales of on-the-job learning regale listeners before she provides sound advice on shifting to video and to freelancers that want to work with the title. “What works in print doesn’t always transition over to digital,” Chirico said. “I love writing really fun print headlines and they’re creative and they catch your attention when you’re reading. But when you’re scrolling on Facebook, those articles don’t necessarily grab your attention like they would in a magazine. Relearning, how you write for digital content is, is huge. Because the way you write for print isn’t necessarily the way you’re going to write for digital.” Chirico’s experience leads listeners into the third segment where the hosts discuss a refreshed logo that enables more flexibility in branding. Additionally, in 2022, the podcast moves from quarterly to every other month, with a blog post produced on the off months, thus providing equine media members with more robust content to navigate the industry. “Our new logo and content strategy reflects a shift in how we produce material for our audience,” Boatwright said. “We’re so proud of the way our community has grown, and we want to bring more info, entertainment and value to the time they spend with us.” An archive of podcast episodes provides a great resource for those wanting to understand how to forge a path through the horse industry with ease and professional grace. Those looking to make a splash and gain regular work within the industry also have a chance to mentor under Boatwright and Byars through the Freelance Remuda Mentorship Program, which offers three levels of immersive learning. The mentorship has assisted several individuals who are now regular contributors to magazines like Horse Illustrated, Horse & Rider, Western Horseman, Barrel Horse News, Reined Cow Horse News, Chrome and the Paint Horse Journal.

Co-hosted by seasoned freelance professionals Abigail Boatwright and Kate Bradley Byars, the podcast explores the trials and triumphs surrounding life as a freelancer in equine media, while sharing valuable tips from equine media editors and creatives doing what they love. The dictionary lists a remuda as: re•mu•da (noun): a herd of horses that have been saddle-broken from which ranch hands choose their mounts for the day. The Freelance Remuda’s mission is to help train up a herd of professionals specializing in horses, from which editors and businesses in equine media can hire to do great work.
