How to Plan a Horse Show Season w/Chloe Trueblood

Before the braids, before the entries, before the credit card panic...there’s planning...hopefully.

In this episode of Broke Horse Moms, Angie sits down with her daughter Chloe for an unfiltered planning conversation using the 2026 Broke Horse Moms Planning Workbook. Together, they reflect on 2025, set rider goals, set MOM goals, choose shows with intention, and define a couple of mom boundaries around time, money, and energy.

This isn’t a “perfect plan” episode. It’s a practical, honest look at how horse families can plan a season together, without turning it into pressure, guilt, or a contract written in pencil and stress.

You’ll hear how they:

  1. Reflect on what mattered in 2025 (the highs and the lows)
  2. Let the rider lead goal-setting without mom editing the answers
  3. Create a realistic show wish list (and talk about the why)
  4. Do a reality check on time, budget, and family capacity
  5. Prepare for trainer conversations before show season starts
  6. Define wins that aren’t tied to ribbons

If you’ve ever thought, “I just want to feel a little more organized this year,” this episode and the workbook are for you.
