Books & Inspiration

Brené Brown changed my perspective on people, thought patterns, and myself. Her work around shame, vulnerability, courage, and accountability helped me understand why we react the way we do and how much power there is in honesty. Not polished honesty. Real honesty. The kind that reshapes how you parent, lead, and move through the world.

​

If you have never watched her TED Talk on shame and vulnerability, start there. It is grounding and eye-opening.

Lucia’s training techniques are grounded, practical, and shaped by a long line of experience across multiple disciplines. Her approach centers on solid foundations, clear communication, and timing that horses understand. Nothing rushed. Nothing performative. Just work that holds up in real barns with real horses.

​

She brings a calm, thoughtful presence to colt starting and training, meeting each horse where it is instead of forcing a timeline. That depth comes from years of riding, competing, and learning across disciplines, and it shows in the confidence and willingness of the horses she works with. Her methods resonate with riders who want to understand the why behind the work, not just follow steps.

​

As a western influencer, Lucia brings a quiet sophistication to the dirt she lives in. She blends tradition with modern perspective, offering insight that feels both grounded and elevated. Her social media presence is honest and unfiltered.

 

The good.

The hard.

The in between.

 

Relationships, kids, business, growth. She does not curate perfection. She shows real life with grit and heart.

​

Beyond training and influence, she is inspiring simply by being herself. A skilled horsewoman, a devoted mom, and a woman building a life with intention. Full of grit and beauty all her own.

Finding the right counselor changed my life. Therapy is not about fixing what is broken. It is about staying grounded, learning courage, and showing up honestly in your life. Mental health matters because everything else sits on top of it. Parenting. Relationships. Work. Resilience. When your mind is supported, everything else steadies.

​

My counselor, Jen, has been a constant source of clarity and grounding for me. My daughter’s counselor, Trevor, has been just as impactful. Having the right support for both of us has made a real difference in how we navigate hard seasons.

​
