Caring for horses takes dedication, knowledge, and consistency. Every groom knows how important it is to plan ahead, to have the right feed, the right equipment, the right schedule, so the horses can thrive. But when it comes to planning for our own financial well-being, many of us never received the same kind of guidance.
That is something we want to change.
HorseGrooms is thrilled to share that Business and Personal Finance Coach Jenny Schwartz, founder of Drop Your Stirrups, has offered to host a complimentary online workshop on personal finance designed especially for grooms.
Jenny Schwarz
Jenny understands both the equestrian world and the financial challenges that often come with it. With more than 30 years of experience across public finance, equity asset management, government, non-profit business development, and equestrian sports, she brings a rare mix of deep financial expertise and genuine understanding of horse people. She has held senior management roles in the municipal bond industry, served on boards in town government and equine non-profits, and now focuses her energy on mentoring individuals and small businesses, especially those who are often underserved.
Recently, Jenny created an AI-powered financial literacy course of 100 prompts that helps people ask better questions about money in a private, judgment-free way. Her mission is simple: to help people gain clarity, confidence, and control over their financial lives.
Why Financial Education Matters
Financial health is not about earning more money. It is about knowing how to manage what you have, understanding your income and expenses, planning ahead, and feeling secure enough to make choices for yourself.
A healthy financial foundation can make life less stressful and more empowering. It allows you to:
- Save for unexpected expenses or time off between jobs
- Reduce stress about bills, credit, or debt
- Set goals like buying a car, traveling, or continuing your education
- Build long-term confidence and independence
You deserve that stability. You work hard for it.
Shape This Workshop With Us
Jenny wants to tailor the workshop to what you most need. That is why she is asking for your input through a short survey. Whether you want to learn about saving, budgeting, credit, or investing, this is your chance to help shape a workshop designed specifically for grooms.
Financial knowledge is not only for riders, trainers, or business owners. It is for everyone who works hard to keep horses healthy, happy, and ready to perform.
Let us build that future together, one that is strong, stable, and secure, for you and your horses.You can find Jenny on Instagram at @dropyourstirrups2024 or on LinkedIn.
