Heels Down Happy Hour Podcast 92: Got 99 Problems & The Supply Chain Is One

How much do you really know about the supply chain issues affecting businesses, including those in the horse industry? We break it down with the owners of two of our favorite equestrian brands. Jess’s old college roommate joins us for some laughs and we find a way to squeeze horse poop into the conversation, too. Thanks for tuning in.

Special Guests:

Katelyn Woodburn is the owner and designer of Street & Saddle, a Vancouver-based equestrian apparel brand. In her “previous life,” she was an eventer and a contributor to Heels Down Mag. She is patiently waiting for life to slow down a bit so she can get back into riding. 

Patricia Da Silva is the president of Ecogold and CEO of Heels Down Media. Selected as one of 25 of the most revolutionary leaders in the equestrian world by the Equestrian Trailblazers Summit, a multiple nominee and winner of Equestrian Social Media Awards, and the recipient of Equestrian Canada’s Media Award, Patricia is a well-known voice for innovative ideas.

Jimmie Schramm is an American eventer with experience up to the 5-star level. She is one half of Schramm Equestrian, an eventing program she runs out of West Grove, PA, with her eventer husband, Dom. You may remember them from their fun Evention TV series.

More about our hosts:

Jessica Payne is a 32-year-old international event rider who is rarely seen without her long-haired chihuahua under her arm. She was born in London, Ontario but grew up in Franklin, Tenn. and graduated from Auburn University with a degree in Animal Science. She once lost the tip of her pinky finger clipping her 4* horse, and husband Doug says she can “talk to anyone including a wall….and they will like it!”

Ellie Woznica is a 22-year-old freelance book designer and horse trainer because she couldn’t choose which career to pursue and her mom said she wouldn’t make the decision for her. She grew up showing the hunters and jumpers, but in university, she learned to ride western and fell in love with reining. 

Justine Griffin is an award winning 32-year-old journalist who has written about everything from horses to high profile CEOs to her ovaries. (She donated her eggs once.) Two things she loves the most? Whippet puppies and cheese. Justine is a firm believer in unicorns and feminism. So take everything she says with a grain of salt.


Many thanks to our sponsors this week, Green Flower Botanicals, Candles for Burned-Out Equestrians and Ecogold!
