I feel you. I have also gotten so much hate and so many comments on how I ride, my weight, my looks, my clothes and so on. That is why I also took a break from CZcams for a little while, because it made me sad and I don't like to be sad. We put ourself out there and show that equestrian world is not as polished as some of the other youtubers. We need us real equestrians also. Hang in there
Well, I think that you and Seren are doing fantastic! I don’t know why you doubt yourself. You are a wonderful rider and she is such a good little horse. Meditation helped me a lot, mindful meditation. Stop doubting yourself and believe in yourself because you are special and so is your horse.❤❤
Thank you so much!! It’s something that has always been my weakness believing in myself! It’s been since school days & it’s hard to overcome. But I’m so so much better than I was. Yes you’re totally right I do need to believe in Seren cause she is such a good little pony xxx
I always feel so bad for some many equine influencers like yourself who have to put up with this kind of hate. People are much more likely to type their opinion and overly criticise with no constructive comments and usually out of jealousy. But just remember like it is for shops and restaurants etc it’s more often for people to complain than to compliment but many people will really enjoy and feel inspired by your content but never say anything and then you also have all your followers who will cheer you on so focus on them. Ignore the comments. My favourite quote is “opinions are like aresholes… everyone has one but some of them are full of shit” 😂 only take advice and criticism from those in your real life. Keep doing your best for you and Seren yous are doing amazing and work towards your goals at your own pace don’t feel pressured by the internet to accomplish everything overnight. ❤
Thank you so much Jennifer 🩵, yeah so true and unfortunately our brains are always more focused on the negative stuff ( same with any ‘feedback’) which is frustrating when there is in fact so much good. & yeah I didn’t realise quite how many silent supporters we had which I do love 🥰. Especially if we are out at venues and they recognise Sez! That’s also my absolute FAVE saying 🤣🤣! Lots of love xx
Good for you Hannah. There are so many horrible people posting tripe on the internet but they are the losers. The challenges you have faced and bravely shared have been really relatable and it is so encouraging to see how much progress you have made with seren. Keep doing what you're doing! (As long as you're happy of course!)
Thank you so so much 🩵🩵. It’s hard to post that kinda thing it really is. But if I can make at least one person realise that if it’s going 💩 with their horse. It’s normal and it happens. Thanks for supporting me xxx
Awww Han I hate that you get bullied and shit from strangers. I absolutely love your vlogs you are by far my favourite vlogger personality. Your journey with seren is so real, the ups and downs. She’s a mare and a welshie, you’ve got tempermental x2 there 🤣 you are amazing and have made me laugh even in the tough times I’ve had recently. Keep your chin up xx
One of the many reasons i dont really post on my instagram is because of this. People nowadays- mostly kids that dont know better, see things online that are false or untrue and believe it. Not to mention the hate for bits bigger then a gentle snaffle or spurs to help with aids nowadays online is so frustrating. To be fair I could go on a rant about all that for weeks without stopping. Its sadly a problem that wont be fixed realistically. The only way is to push foreward knowing you are doing your best and that is it. Well done on you for keeping on going, there are people here who arent ass****s.
I think horse people are genuinely the most opinionated people in terms of. We know how we like things done with our own horses & sometimes people can’t stand that can they! What works for one doesn’t always work for another. Hence why there are other bits made! Haha Thanks for supporting xxx
You’ve got this Hannah, so many people love and support your journey with Seren! Thank you for sharing this side of your social media though because its sadly all too common and easy for people to abuse but not everybody sees it. It takes a really sad person that’s not happy with themselves to spread hateful comments. You’re great, don’t forget it ❤️
Fab vlog.... interesting as I was bullied at school too and I'm sure that's what pushed me to horses all the more as my safe space. Keep just doing you and loving your life. X
It’s easy to try pass it off as “kids can be cruel” but it really sticks. Took until my mid 30’s to detach myself for the negative influence, but it’s deeply ingrained. You’re brave and inspiring for taking about it. Your horses welfare isn’t compromised and we’re all on a journey, trolls forget that. Don’t usually say much love to a stranger, but I’m putting it out there!
Coming back to add 3/4 way through, sorry, bullies make me mad, you look beautiful riding her and I love your commentary. We should all teach ourselves this way. I’m sorry trolls made you feel inadequate because the relationship you have is perfect, so f*** them!
Aaahh Hannah pls ignore what people say. From where you both started to where you are now... is amazing, Its only you that can take the credit for that. You inspire me to keep going with my green pony. Yes im an adult riding a pony.. which people probably say im too big!! ❤❤❤
I stopped posting because of all the haters/know it alls/armchair trainers etc. I see more popular youtubers get loads of compliments on "being brave enough to show the real stuff" but it seems when you have a smaller audience it is made up of people with no knowledge just judging and flapping their mouths about everything/thinking they can diagnose everything off a short. It is too hard for me to ignore because my horses and my riding mean so much to me. I'm glad people are starting to stand up to these types of people...maybe it will get better.
It's easy for people to tell you to ignore the hurtful comments but in reality, I understand that's a very difficult thing to do. We always focus on the 1 negative comment, even if there are 100 lovely comments right behind it, you're a human being with real feelings at the end of the day. An easier way to combat those neggy nellys that, unfortunately, you're inevitably going to get on your posts are to understand that those hurtful comments are truly just a reflection of the insecurities/jealousy/personal traumas that they have with themselves and in fact, have absolutely nothing to do with you or Sez or yours or hers abilities. Don't ignore them, have sympathy for them. You have to be pretty f'd up internally to spread hate online to people you don't even know. Look at how far you have come with Seren to remind yourself of the journey you're on. Because that's what it is, a journey. And no journey is a straight road, Hannah. You're doing absolutely brilliantly & your passion & your determination to be the best that you can both be is truly inspiring. I love watching all of your content, on YT & Instagram and I think you're a fantastic role model for many young equestrians out there. Keep doing you, Hannah! Lots of love to you and Sez❤
Keep enjoying your journey and ignore the internet idiots xx I’ve been riding and judging for years and honestly you have to just ignore them or they have won, that’s what I do. I recognise where you are , I think. I organised some clinics there , lovely venue. I’m hoping to do the farm ride when open x
I'm at work and I've had a quick look at the transcript. Will watch properly tonight. In the meantime, haters are going to hate and that's their gig. If you think about it, it means that they are pretty pathetic and the best solution is to ignore them. That is easier said than done. Be brave, stay strong. Cheering you on from Australia 🌏🦘.
Thank you lovely & I know, I will ignore as best I can. I was actually tagged in one post the other day about being an equestrian ick by a teenager- I did actually lol about it. I am so grateful you’re watching & cheering us on all the way from Auz 🩵🩵🙌🏻. Xxx
@@bridgetmustard5285 If you are asking me, I first rode a horse over fifty years ago. My specialty is difficult horses. I don't make a living from horses but do have a horse qualification and have been a stablehand. I like to own horses that no one else wants.
Imagine spending your time writing mean things about other people on the internet- those people can’t be happy themselves! I really enjoy watching your vlogs and headcams - keep at it xx
Aah that was so hard to watch, you sounded defeated before you'd even started the session, like you didn't really want to be there and I think we've all felt like that before. Us equestrians tend to be harsh enough critics of ourselves without other people making us feel shit too. I hate that people seem to think that if you put yourself out there you should be open to 'hate'; you wouldn't have the balls to say it in real life so why say it online? Yes perhaps people are entitled to have an opinion but is it really that difficult to either word it in a polite, helpful manner if there's a genuine issue that needs addressing or here's a thought- just don't watch it! 🙄 Carry on doing what you're doing, for all the people trying to put you down there's 10 of us routing for you! Xx
I detest bullies. I was bullied as a teenager. But was tough. So it did not affect me too much. But destroyed others. There are always nasty people in life. That feel they have to be nasty to others. But it is them that have the problem ? They must have very sad unhappy lives to spend time bullying others on social media. Ignore them all. They dont matter.!! Just block them. Probably just jelous of you😂😂

Yes!! Horses are the best therapists they really are zxx
Sorry to hear you were bullied Jess 😕xx
You’ve got this Han! Hi listen to the good people! Those other idiots are jealous! Go and prove them wrong💪🏼
