The Horse Show: s2e9 - Jessika Kynett

Jessika Kynett will be competing in the USEA American Eventing Championships next week in Tryon, NC, which is the dream of so many amateur event riders. For this police officer from Montana it means so much more — for Jessika this will be her Olympic Games, because she has overcome a Traumatic Brain Injury that she sustained in June 2016, which threatened not only her career but also her riding. Jessika tells the story of how an ordinary trail ride turned into a nightmare, how she found her horse Tanker, who doubles as a police horse and eventer, and why she is pinching herself that her dream is about to come true. The Horse Show is brought to you by Team Ride Safe—the Official Medical Bracelet of WiSP Sports that's designed to be worn all the time and essential for all sportswomen. For more conversations from the world of women’s sport visit us at www.wispsports.com and on social media @WiSP Sports.
