By The Love Of Horses welcomed Sarah Kate Byrne to speak to us regarding her Sustainable Fashion initiatives. Sarah mixes "contemporary sustainable fashion with vintage finds for her editorial, commercial and private client work." The beauty of her work finds its way to one of the preeminent horserace and fashion events: the Royal Ascot. Listen to the Podcast of this and previous shows: https://www.zoomerradio.ca/podcasts/by-the-love-of-horses/ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ As a rider at 60 years old, I believe that all can benefit from the secret of riding. I myself, raised with a British background, take inspiration from the Queen who continues to ride at 94 years old. I believe that the same can be true for today’s youth. Riding can give them...
Sometimes we find that in our growing up, in our change and growth and evolution as individuals, we encounter moments and junctures when we are forced to say good-bye.
