STABLE ADJACENT
You love your horse more than is probably reasonable
A virtual barn community, horse relocation concierge, horse-life coaching, and resource hub for adult amateur equestrians — because figuring it out alone is overrated.
You're not imagining it. This is actually hard.
WHO THIS IS FOR
Stable Adjacent is a space for adult amateur equestrians who are navigating the complexities of real life while making the (ir)rational decision to care deeply about a thousand-plus-pound animal. The barn community that used to make all of this easier gets harder to find as life fills up. We have jobs, responsibilities, limited riding time, and just enough confidence to question everything after every ride or every horse care decision.
Maybe your horse has something going on and you’ve spent hours online getting more confused, not less. Maybe you’re getting conflicting advice from your vet, your trainer, and the internet — and you don’t know who to listen to or where to start. Maybe you’re just getting back into horses after time away, or finally pursuing your childhood “Saddle Club” dreams and purchased your first horse. Maybe you keep your horses at home but are missing the community boarding used to bring.
Stable Adjacent is the horse-life coaching, equestrian community, and Hampton Roads horse relocation resource built specifically for the adult amateur equestrian who is done figuring it out alone.
Three ways to stop figuring it out alone.
WHAT WE OFFER
Community, coaching, and expert local guidance — all in one place.

I’ve been exactly where you are…
Stable Adjacent was founded in Hampton Roads, Virginia by an adult amateur equestrian who knows exactly what it's like to figure this out without a roadmap.
Hi, I’m Jenna! My current horses are Connor, Noah, and Willow, and between them we've navigated more diagnoses, specialist opinions, conflicting advice, and sleepless Google spirals than I'll ever admit out loud (though I will talk all about them on the podcast). I know what it's like to know something's wrong and not know who to call. I know what it's like to be new to horse ownership and realize how much nobody told you. And I know what it's like to want to be a better rider mentally and physically but feel unsure of how to get there.
I also know what it's like to move to a new area with horses and start completely from scratch: no barn, no vet, no farrier, no community, no idea.
Stable Adjacent is the resource I’ve always wished existed: honest, experienced coaching for adult amateur equestrians, a relocation concierge for anyone moving horses to Hampton Roads, and a community for the people who miss having horse people to talk to.
This is a journey, not a destination. I'm still on it too.
