Taking the Leap: Resilience, horses and the love of Eventing — Yona Lloyd style
Description
In this episode of Between the Flags, we sit down with Yona Lloyd for an honest conversation about resilience, taking chances, and staying committed to the sport you love.
From his upbringing in Tasmania to building a life in Western Victoria, Yona shares the experiences that have shaped him as a rider, coach, husband, father and horseman. We talk about the tough times, the setbacks that test your resolve, and the lessons learned from choosing to keep showing up when things don't go to plan.
Known for his down-to-earth approach and genuine passion for helping riders and horses develop, Yona reflects on the importance of backing yourself, taking the leap when opportunities arise, and finding purpose in the journey rather than the result.
This is a conversation about horses, family, coaching, resilience and why, despite the challenges, we keep coming back to eventing.
A thoughtful and inspiring chat with one of the good humans in our sport.
