A few days behind but it's here! Episode 21 of the Mane Brain podcast is LIVE - "Mistakes are the Mechanism: How Errors Build Better Riders."

If you’ve ever felt frustrated by making mistakes in your riding, this episode will change how you think about learning in the saddle.

In this episode, Audrey breaks down why mistakes aren’t something to eliminate — they’re the mechanism your brain uses to build better balance, timing, and coordination. Drawing from motor learning research, neuroscience, and her background as a neurologic physical therapist, Audrey explains how errors drive neuroplasticity and why riders who learn fastest aren’t the ones who ride perfectly.

You’ll learn how to use mistakes productively in unmounted training, how to carry those principles into the saddle, and how to recognize errors so your brain can learn from them.
