In this episode of 'Hitting Your Stride', Tracey takes a deep dive into the world of eventing rider and coach Lesley Grant-Law. This Canadian-born equestrian now calls Ocala, Florida home, where she and her husband Leslie Law operate Law Eventing. Lesley goes into great detail about her life in and out of the horse world and doesn't hold back on some of the lessons she's had to learn.
Brought up by her parents to be a hard worker, Lesley recalls how they didn't approve of her choice to follow dreams of being an equestrian athlete but she went for it anyway. She educated the hell out of herself, getting a pair of degrees - including a masters in Political Science - from York University before embarking on another kind of educational experience in the horse world. It was around this time that Lesley learned where her goal posts were but also that she could broaden them.
Never having been a good quitter, Lesley's determined mindset lets her see the silver lining in being a 'fantastic bridesmaid' -- including a heartbreak near her peak as an athlete that resulted in 'a soul-crushing experience' -- and how even the saddest story of your life can be turned around into something positive. Forever a student, Lesley learns from those around her ... including her Olympic gold-medalist husband. And even as she works to better her riding & competitive skills every chance she gets, Lesley happily admits that it will always be family first for her.
