Lesley Grant-Law; Bulletproof Bitch of Eventing … or just like you and me?
Manage episode 328404844 series 3343754
Get ready to meet and love my friend Lesley Grant-Law. You will resonate with Lesley if you have ever looked at someone else's life and wondered how the hell they did it??? Lesley will tell you! Lesley's superpower is her honesty and ability to be gritty and real. She just LOOKS like a fairy tale princess, and we often assume that anyone who lives a life with horses is living a fairy tale.
That is partly true. There IS a dreamlike quality to ANY life we create around horses when we strive to do it to the highest level possible … but Lesley will tell you what it takes if you were NOT born a Rockefeller, OR with boat loads of ‘talent’.
Lesley has been short or long listed for the Canadian team 8 times, a reserve for the Pan Ams twice, and would have represented Canada in Beijing, were it not for a heartbreaking last-minute lameness with her horse Timber Spirit. She is married to British riding phenom Leslie Law, and together they run their successful business Law Eventing, while at the same time raising their son Liam and running off to soccer practices.
Recently, I was lucky enough to spend a couple of weeks with them at their farm in Ocala Florida and witness the reality of what it takes to pull off what looks like magic … but in reality is something quite different … and perhaps even attainable for the rest of us ‘Muggles’. Together we’ll look at:
~ How Lesley deals with self-doubt
~ How she made it to the top without being born with a silver spoon
~ How her superpower has more to do with being like a cockroach than being talented
~ How tenacity can turn into ‘feel’ and make magic with horses
~ How ANYTHING is possible!
