Welcome back to our Camp Series with Lucinda Fredericks! In this video, we get real about the ups and downs of equestrianism, as the effects of Bicton finally boil over.
As a rider, I know that falling is part of the game. But when I took a hard tumble at Bicton, I didn't expect it to have such a lasting impact on me. In this video, I share my raw emotions as I struggle to come to terms with jumping my ponies again.
I am so grateful for Ellie, who stepped in to ride Dee for me when I just couldn't. Her's and Lucinda's support and understanding helped me through one of the toughest moments of my equestrian journey.
I was reluctant to share this, as I do worry about the comments and my reputation in the industry. However, this day I was genuinely terrified to come to a fence on my own horse, and I think it's so important to air this to the equestrian world.

Just remember all that adrenaline/anxiety is your body trying to protect you. You aren’t crazy, or overreacting , you experienced a dangerous and scary fall and you are having to convince your body that it isn’t going to happen again.

You just need a little help right now, which everyone needs from time to time - no matter which stream of life. You haven't given up, that is why you are still on this journey and why you are with Lucinda - you have have stopped at a fence but you are progressing through and that is important. What courage you are showing. A lot of people would call it quits but you aren't, you are facing your fears and we are all rooting for you. Dee has a wonderful heart and is bursting with natural ability and class. And isnt Lucinda and Ellie wonderful. I always love the vlogs with Lucinda as she is so genuine, so passionate. You are so lucky to be surrounded by these people who care for you and support you - You'll get through this.

    Dear Meg, firstly thank you for your honesty & bravery. Your fall was brutal & clearly your concern isn't just for you, but mostly for your horse (typical of your loving care of your ponies). My trauma came from a car accident, but I had some falls from horses previously. Take the positives: you have got back in the saddle; you have successfully ridden not only your ponies but other people's horses. Furthermore, consider the complement from Lucinda when Ellie rode Dee - "Dee is such a credit to you & how you have produced her". I hope this experience with Lucinda, & all the emotions, form a positive start to your healing & the rebuilding of your confidence in yourself & your abilities & confidence in the awesome ponies you have so brilliantly produced. Never apologise for being truthful - there is no shame in that - entirely the opposite - it shows bravery, truthfulness & your awesome character. That's why you have such faithful followers & respect from us (& your sponsors). Much love, be well - it will get better - I know🤗x

Crying will do you the world of good and the relief you will feel afterwards will be worth it. We are all human and we do cry, thankyou for including this in your video. On another note, how good would a foal be between Dee and Marley. We all appreciate the ups and downs in your equestrian life, for me this makes it relateable to us as viewers. Thank you and *Hugs*

My own experiences were different but the tears are very familiar. And the thing is, no matter how much you might want to easily put traumatic events behind you, your body remembers. The moment you said you were wearing the dirty body protector from Bicton your whole breath and energy changed.... You dealt with it as well as anyone can, honestly. This is such a hard sport at any level and we all need to be *kind to ourselves* and look after each other. 💗💗💗 And remember that maybe you can't train bravery, but only those who have known fear can ever *be* brave

    I don't usually comment but that was really hard to watch for so many reasons, but am so glad you posted it. Loosing your confidence is a funny thing, people often say it so flippantly, but no one knows what it's like until it happens to them. Sleepless nights, over thinking, double checking everything, excuses finding, lieing to yourself! I used to vomit in a morning if i was supposed to be taking my horse on a walk and trot round the block! the sense of foreboding was suffocating. My logical brain said "It will be fine, youve done this a million times", every other parts of my body and soul said "dont do it! something awful will happen!! Worse than you can even imagine!!". I did get over it and I think I am a better rider for it, and a more sympathetic friend to people who loose their confidence. Keep going, keep trying different things, it doesn't feel like it now, but you will get there. Huge hugs xxx

    I came off this fall for the first time in 6 years and I gained a fear I've never had. It's been a real struggle to over come it. I'm no longer trusting my extremely trustworthy pony. Thank you for sharing and remind us that we aren't alone in our feelings.

    I have been feeling exactly the same way. After a fall off my horse where I was injured, I have hit a wall with my confidence that I have had a terrible time trying to overcome. I can get on other horses and feel fine but on him I can barely ride. It's incredibly frustrating. Thank you for showing us that you struggle like this too.

    I had a big confidence knock one time while riding as the horse I rode slipped with his hind leg in the canter and fell forward onto his front knees. It scared the life out of me and I didn’t canter a lot for a good month or so. This video is so empowering to people who have had these big confidence knocks to show that it’s okay to have setbacks in your career whether it be a hobby or professional. You’re doing amazing and you’re such an inspiration to many people! We love you Meg!🫶🏻❤️ Lucinda did such an amazing job to comfort you after you broke down. She is an amazing trainer🫶🏻

Even though this is footage is raw and difficult for you to share, it has made me, and many other riders i'm sure, feel so much less alone. At times when confidence is lacking, to be together and share experiences can help us all hold each other up. You've absolutely got this Meg, we are all backing you and so proud of you, and by watching this video it has allowed me to start backing myself a little bit more too, so I can only say thank you ❤
