Tracey Mitchell comes from a family of horse lovers and equestrian athletes. Growing up near London, Ontario, she rode dressage, competed and managed her own barn. After enrolling at the D’Arcy Lane Institute in the its equine massage therapy program, she followed a career as an REMT for more than 23 years. Wanting to build on her love of personal development and deeper connections, Tracey became an accredited life coach and launched Equestrian Elements Life Coaching two years ago. In order to reach out to even more people and foster a sense of community within the horse world, Hitting Your Stride, Tracey’s podcast for equestrians of all stripes, was born.

In this special episode of Hitting Your Stride, Tracey Mitchell chats with Canadian dressage legend Christilot Boylen about her amazing career and insights.

Six-time Olympian and three-time Pan Am gold medalist Boylen shares her lifetime of experiences, from learning how to train in the most foreign of circumstances, how to get the message across to students who aren’t sure of their footing, and how goal-setting never goes away.
