It’s been 3 months since i left Australia and moved to Germany to chase my big dreams. Lots has changed in my life during that time and there have been many tough moments & tears trying to deal with these life changes on my own. I wouldn’t change it for an absolute thing because for the first time in my life I feel like I belong, I feel like I am exactly where I need to be & I feel completely in alignment.

The biggest thank you to my incredible trainer and his beautiful family for sharing their beautiful barn & home with me, supporting me and believing in me. The Fleyenhof family for just being the best humans ever, always making me laugh and smile, and making my tough days a little easier.

I am living my dream 🖤

16/03/2023

Today is my last day at home for awhile , tomorrow we head down to Melbourne to join Creedence & Elle in quarantine before we start the big journey to early next week 🥹

The emotions are kicking in of missing our dogs, all our horses, the donkeys, our wonderful staff , clients & our family. I am just so lucky I have such a beautiful & incredible place to call home & miss terribly 🖤

Eleganze - our overachiever 🖤

Really starting to find her strength in all the movements now with the help of proflamaid plus, top line, equi soy & equigesic plus !

I often have to remind myself that she recently just turned 8 🥹

12/07/2022

All the ups, downs, setbacks, change of plans, 3 steps forward, 16 hour days, cold winter mornings, late nights ,being patient, riding the non stop emotional waves, the bullying in the industry, heartbreak & disappointment will never stop me being grateful for this life surrounded by my beautiful horses and the incredible journey I am on with each one of them.

It really is a very unglamorous but truly beautiful life and I wouldn’t change it for the world 🖤

12 months since I started feeding and I refuse to feed anything else. My horses have gone from strength to strength in their health & training. Im actually feeding way less then what I used to which is an added bonus ! A huge thank you to Peter & Bryan for all their support I am so grateful for you helping get my horses gut health back on track. That shine just says absolutely everything 🖤

The boys do a weekly podcast that I recommend everyone listens to as it is filled with heaps of information !

Our beautiful big black dutch diva Kira KM rocking her new safety halter from 🖤

I love how safe & functional these are, whilst looking exceptionally classy 😉

21/06/2022

A huge thank you to Steve , Justin & Hayley from for the awesome work they did in renovating our arena after all the hectic rain 🌧
They repaired the base , added more drainage and tweaked my surface to exactly how I wanted ! These guys do amazing work and I am feeling extra blessed to be welcomed onto their sponsored rider team 🖤

3 weeks until we start the first arena build at !

Eleganze 🖤

Forever the luckiest lady to call this horse mine. So looking forward to what our new chapter holds for us 🇩🇪🖤

18/06/2022

Missing our family & friends in Germany so much already 🇩🇪🖤

But so looking forward to seeing everyone & this very handsome man Goldberg again at the end of August !

12/06/2022

Our beautiful Extravaganza 🖤

Meeting her was the absolute highlight of our trip ! We are so grateful to & for everything they are doing with her for us !

Now it’s time to head home and get straight back into the chaos of our life 😅

07/06/2022

Today I had the ride & lesson of my life.
On the wonderful Goldberg with Hurbertus Schmidt at the beautiful Fleyenhof which is a beautiful place full of love & support.

I also get to announce that early next year that I move here with Eleganze to train full time with Hurbertus & Katharina with no confirmed return date; This would not be possible without the incredible support I get from Axel & Sandra Schürner - who believes in me so much that I cannot put it into words. Also my family especially & Steve who just supports me every step of the way 🖤

We have had an incredible 6 days with Sandra & Axel and feel so blessed to be able to have such a great family here in Germany 🇩🇪

The sad part of this new chapter means that our beautiful property Solace at Highvale must be sold, aswell of some of my Australian based horses 🥲

I am so excited for what is to come ! Now it’s time to tie all my loose ends in Australia for the big journey ahead !

Being closer to my other husband , & just makes it so much sweeter 😂

28/05/2022

So Super from won our hearts over pretty quickly with his “interesting” looks 😂 & his super personality, that it was a no brainer when we were offered him to be the trial horse to go through our OTT retraining program at ! Something I am really looking forward to sinking my teeth into 🖤

17/05/2022

A huge thank you to for coming out today to do another bit fit for Elle’s double & doing .equestrian horses.

I love how much I learn every time I am in your presence & am so grateful for for sending you my way 🖤

02/05/2022

It’s been a hectic week.

The most exciting thing is the arena reno has finally commenced thanks to Steve & Hayley from ! I have personally loved having Steve on site everyday and having lots of laughs and bouncing my ideas of him and I am very much looking forward to my arenas new upgrades !

I dropped Kira of to my second home 😂 today UQ today for surgery tomorrow and I am ready and excited for the next few months of rehab.

I know how my eyes set on Tamworth Dressage club official comp next weekend with Killerbee & Eleganze 🖤

Personally I hope I can stay dry this week 🌧😂

17/04/2022

Really looking forward to taking Killerbee .nl out to her first ever interstate show in the next few weeks.

Seems like yesterday she arrived from holland as a spicy and hot 3 year old that constantly made me make sure my life insurance was up to date 😂

I love and adore this pocket rocket so much 🖤

My absolute heart & soul horse Eleganze 🖤

Our journey just keeps getting more & more exciting ✨

Missing and laughing my butt off with the fam everyday 🥺

But looking forward to flying down to next week where you will find me in the stand . So if you have any questions on bits or I am looking forward to talking with you 🖤

06/03/2022

Now that I am finally home from my extended showcation I can finally do a proper post 😂

It was pretty extraordinary to be standing up with my gay husband in the place getters. This has been a stepping stone goal of mine for a few years now. It feels good to be able to tick it off and now start the second stepping stone goal.. to be standing next to him😉

I honestly felt that Elle and I rode the best tests we have ever done & even on the second day when she had a couple of freak out moments as she was the only horse left on the arena, she still stuck with me.

It was sometimes overwhelming hearing everyone’s comments about what a horse & rider combo we are and have the potential to be… it’s honestly nice that people are staring to see the horse I saw 2 years ago in Germany. DBTS actually felt like our coming out party as we have been stuck in QLD for the last 2 years 😅

Now we continue our homework and start preparing for our next show.

A huge thank you to Terry & Jenette Snow for having us and allowing us to stay an extra week. , , & Chad for letting me treat your stables, tack room and feed room like it was mine and making me laugh every single day whilst I was down there… I am so lucky to have good & supportive friends like you in my corner 🖤

19/12/2021

And that is how you end the year…. A big pat & an even bigger smile. We did some cool things in 6 months Elle… I can’t wait to see what next year brings 🖤

22/11/2021

Never forget family / team work makes the dream work!

I am extremely blessed that my family is my “team” and that these two both move mountains to help me achieve my dreams.

I couldn’t do it without them and I love them both to the moon and back for it🖤

I just wanted to take the time to publicly thank everyone for their love & support since Friday.

It’s quite overwhelming having your life published over the internet & made to public knowledge. It’s also overwhelming having the pressure really put on your shoulders publicly. If im being honest… I haven’t slept since Thursday night 😅

All I know is I am excited… there is alot of amazing and cool things that and I will be doing in the next 12 - 24 months with Archer Park !

I’m apologizing in advance if im hard to get into contact with for awhile too 😂

Im feeling really lucky I get to be surrounded by these amazing animals everyday to make a living 🖤

14/11/2021

Welcome to our new home.

We cannot wait to showcase our beautiful facilities to you in 2022.

Until then we are going to be very busy bringing our vision to life.

Happy healthy horses 🖤
