The Educated Cowgirl Podcast!
Educating the equine industry to bring us closer together as a community! I have always been passionate about promoting the equine industry and helping to inspire the next generation of horsemen and women. One of my main goals with this podcast is to provide new learning opportunities to grow their and my own knowledge of other disciplines, breeds, and several different topics that they are not apart of or no nothing about! I want to open people's minds to continue to learn more about horses and the industry to help continue their education as we are always learning and growing! I also want to help bridge the gap between the different worlds we seem to have created within the industry.

08. The Barbie Movie and Women in the Equine Industry!
I took away so many thoughts and opinions after seeing The Barbie Movie starring Margot Robbie! It is such a powerful statement that needs to be made in 2023 and I have seen the reviews from those who have closed their minds to the views Greta Gerwig worked hard to try and show in this movie and unfortunately their are those who don't see that! However, I see a lot of parallels between women in the horse industry and the commentary this movie was trying to make about how we as women are seen in this world!
- Although, we see a lot of women working and riding in this world we still get overshadowed by men!
- We have come along way in society as women in terms of career and life, but we struggle to be taken seriously and been seen as more than horse crazy little girls!
- Barbie movie showed us that it is okay to be seen as a professional, but to enjoy the freedom and beauty of being a woman without the pressures to be put into a box men like to put us in!
- Anyone who says that this movie isn't a true representation of women in society today needs to watch it again with and really listen to what they are saying!
- This movie also inspired me about how I found my niche for how I want to promote my podcast and the horse industry and stand out among the other equine podcasts!
I hope this week's podcast episode inspired you and sparks your own conversations about this topic!
