Warwick Schiller brings so much depth and honesty to this conversation—it’s the kind of talk that stays with you long after it ends. Jack and I really enjoyed diving into Warwick’s journey, and what unfolded was a beautiful blend of horsemanship wisdom, personal reflection, and practical insight.

He shares how relationship-based training has shaped his work, why understanding ourselves is just as important as understanding our horses, and how energy, intention, and emotional awareness create the foundation for meaningful connection.

We also explore the difference between desensitizing and acclimatizing, how to steer without bracing, and what it really means to lead with care rather than control. Warwick’s approach reminds us that horses are always reading us—and when we learn to listen back, everything starts to change.

This one’s full of insight, warmth, and grounded guidance for anyone wanting to grow—on the ground, in the saddle, and in life.
