Heather Wallace is the writer and photographer for the blog, The Timid Rider, which focuses on the struggling confidence of a returning adult equestrian. She stepped away from horses as a teen due to anxiety and regretted it ever since. Now she is back but things are a little different now. She’s a mother, less flexible, and a lot more nervous. The biggest difference? She’s following her passion despite lacking confidence. Join her as she talks about all those things we think but doesn't say out loud.Â

Heather is the award-winning author of non-fiction titles Confessions of a Timid Rider, which details her insights about being an anxiety-ridden but passionate equestrian and Girl Forward: A Tale of One Woman's Unlikely Adventure in Mongolia.Â

In her spare time, of which she has little, she spends her time with her husband, three children, two dogs, and pony. You can follow her on social media @timidrider or at timidrider.com.
