Hi, I’m Sophie.
I’m a rider confidence mentor, coach and lifelong equestrian - and I support riders just like you.
I help riders transform their relationship with confidence, anxiety, and self-doubt so they can feel calmer, safer, and more at ease with their horse, and truly enjoy riding again.
Through my work inside Tack Up and Ride With Me, I’ve supported riders who feel stuck, anxious, or disconnected despite feeling passionate about riding and having years of experience.
Inside the membership, you’ll learn how to:
Calm your nervous system before and during rides
Release fear, anxiety, and confidence blocks
Quiet the inner critic and stop overthinking

Welcome — I’m Sophie,
Founder of Tack Up & Ride With Me.
I’ve been horse-obsessed for as long as I can remember - the kind of kid who’d spend hours at the stables, rain or shine, just to be near the horses.
Pony Club and British Eventing gave me more than rosettes - they gave me courage, independence, and a deep sense of belonging.
But somewhere along the way - between careers, kids, and life’s curveballs - I saw how easy it is for that confidence to slip.
I created Tack Up and Ride With Me for people like you: passionate riders who love their horses deeply, but sometimes just need a bit of support to feel brave again.
Whether it’s getting back in the saddle after time off, overcoming a knock to your confidence, or simply carving out time for you - I’m here for all of it.
This is more than riding. It’s about rediscovering your strength, your joy, and that unshakable connection with your horse.
Let’s gallop on together.
Riders - the only way to be confident of your future is to create it..
“I went from too nervous to lead the horses in - to confidently hacking out alone and cantering across fields. ”
