I’m so grateful that the USEA continues to share my messages with our country’s eventers!
In this week’s Pressure Proof tip, Daniel Stewart breaks down the four stages of the “conscious-competence ladder” and explains how understanding where we are in the learning process can help us better manage frustration, build confidence, and stay motivated as we develop new skills.
Whether you’re struggling to master something new or working toward making a skill feel like second nature, remember: a little short-term discomfort can lead to long-term growth. 💪
Learn more about the four stages of learning and how they can help you become a more resilient rider. ⬇️

Smoke from area forest fires interfered with our ability to ride in my weekend clinic at Hanna Berry Farm - Delicious B south of Chicago… but that didn’t dampen the spirits of the riders! We pivoted and I taught the riders my frame-by-frame video analysis clinic and we all had a blast. When you can’t do everything, do everything you can! A huge thanks to owner/head trainer Denise and Dave for hosting such a great weekend!
