EPISODE 44: ISABELLE MIRANI | This week on All Clear, we spend time with Isabelle Mirani, whose work as a groom at Redleaf Lodge sits right at the heart of the sport, even if it’s not always in the spotlight.

Izzy speaks openly about the reality of the role, the long days, the responsibility, and the quiet moments that matter most. From preparing horses at home to standing ringside at competitions, she gives a genuine insight into what it takes to support horses and riders at the highest level.

It’s a conversation about care, consistency, and pride in doing a job that asks a lot and gives a lot in return and we thank Divas Beverages and Horizon Show Jumps for making it possible for us to bring this conversation to you.
