No Stupid Questions with Mary Hurston: Tackling Budgets and Banishing Money Myths

No Stupid Questions with Mary Hurston: Tackling Budgets and Banishing Money Myths

You love your horse—but your bank account? Not so much.

If you've ever found yourself thinking "Can I really afford this?" while clicking "checkout" on supplements or showing fees, you're in good company. Most riders are doing their best to make the numbers work in a sport that doesn't exactly favour modest budgets. In this episode of No Stupid Questions, Noëlle sits down with equestrian finance coach Mary Hurston of Budgeting with MH to talk candidly about the financial side of horse life—the part we rarely say out loud but all feel behind the scenes. Mary brings a shame-free approach to budgeting that's made for real equestrians with real goals. We dig into:
  • How much of your income should actually go to horses?
  • Is horse insurance worth the monthly premium—or not?
  • Can you really write off horse expenses?
  • What does it actually cost to show for a week at an "A" circuit venue?
  • How to plan for big goals like buying land, building a barn, or affording shows—without burning out
If you're dreaming big, feeling stretched thin, or just want to take the guesswork out of your horse expenses, this episode will leave you feeling clear, capable, and way more confident. Because in this community? There are no stupid questions—especially when it comes to money.
