I love barrel racing, I may have to do it a little differently sometimes (I’m legallly blind) but it makes me feel like I actually fit in and that “I’m normal” I know that I can always count on my horse to be there for me even if nobody else is. Fallon, you are an inspiration to me, I really hope one day I can meet you in person to tell you how much you have helped me.
Haha “daddy’s dollars”. Isn’t that like putting your kids in little league or in college? After all that it’s what you make of it! You should name one of your next colts daddy’s dollars.
I'm 17, starting way later than I'd like, but I never had the choice when I was younger. Your videos have inspired me so much. I am going to get a job soon and save up for not only another horse, but all the barrel racing essentials. This is my dream, and I have two people who stand behind me and believe that I can do it. You are the one who made me realize that I can accomplish this.
Good luck on your equestrian journey. I'm 14, so I cant get a job but when I do plus get my driver's license i can finally start leasing. I feel the struggle.
Ivy Mercedes 17 is still young my dude! I grew up riding and working at other people’s barns but I’ve never actually owned my horse which is my dream. I grew up in suburbia so I didn’t have the property and my parents could afford leasing or buying and boarding a horse for me as a kid. I always knew that I’d never be able to my own my own horse until I was an adult, that’s just the way it happens sometimes.
My teacher one day was asking all of us what we want to do when we’re older, everyone was saying things like an actor, or a marine biological, and stuff like that, but I said that I want to compete in the WPRA and the NFR, I compete in the Maritime Barrel Racing Association rn, and she looked right at me and laughed and said “u might wanna have a back up plan” and now, all I wanna do is prove her wrong, so I’m gonna work even harder
Brooke Joyce I got that all the time in highschool. Even yesterday, My husband and I were selling my first car to a guy and he was asking what are plans are. (Husband just got out of the Marine Corps, I get out tomorrow) he said “I’m going to lineman school after this” the guy asked me and I said I’m getting my pro rodeo permit next year and he told my husband “lol you better work hard” 🤦🏽♀️
Haters are great motivation. Hang on to that feeling of wanting to prove them wrong. It's a great feeling when they get a good look of a new buckle you just won.
My Grandad has always made sure I had a horse to ride, a place to keep my horses and a place to work barrels. He even built me a barn with an indoor roundpen. That has helped but anytime I've ever won anything it's been because I worked hard. I rode when it was cold or missed hanging out with friends because I had a horse show coming up... Sure I have my own barn, a nice rig and decent horses but none of that stuff makes a winner. It's the time and effort you put into it. 💜💜💜 When I was winning the pole bending every weekend on a horse I trained people started rumors that we paid a whole bunch for her when the reality is we bought her for basically kill pen price because she was a problem horse. I worked with her and she ended up loving the poles. 🤷♀️ Successful people are too busy working on themselves to worry about other people. If you've been subjected to hate just know you are being noticed enough to be on their minds!
Yes, my parents have 100% supported me, they’ve paid for my barrel lessons since i was little, they paid for my horses since i was little (i was always leasing or using family members horses, who weren’t using them), but my parents always said I had to save and buy my own horse if i wanted one. I was always out on nice competitive horses, and did win my share of checks. Yes i was still able to jackpot, and get around places when i was younger, i’d haul with family or friends, but my parents always instilled hard work into me, and i knew i needed to buy, and support my own horse if i wanted one. By the time I was 15, i got a part time job, and also had people sending me client horses, to put miles on, and start. I saved up enough money and at the age of 15, bought myself a gorgeous, nicely bred, AQHA filly, who is now 3, and seriously the best thing to happen to me!! I continue to save for new tack as i have the money, and for a trailer of my own, but i’m so proud to say my parents helped me get where I am, and i now have a self made horse, who is turning into one heck of a mare, and barrel prospect😊 and no my parents didn’t let me take the easy way out on things they’ve always made sure I save to buy good quality fitting tack, good feed and supplements, good horses, and the proper equipment!
I was introduced to horses at age 10, bought my own horse at $500 with my allowance I saved up for 3 years but look lessons until I bought my horse and kept her at a friend’s house. I had to clean horse stalls, clean tack, ride other people horses to make money. With that money I saved up enough to buy fencing and a shelter I could put up at my dads house for my horse. It took my 3 years to be able to do that. I now have my horse, a trailer I built, and my truck (the only thing my parents bought me) all at my dads house. No one believed in me but I fought for what I have. I’m now 17 and working 3 jobs to be able to pay for monthly hay and feed, and a farrier appointment every 6 weeks, and my yearly vet appointment. Everything I have for my horse came outta my pockets. Thank you so much for your videos. They are very inspirational and I love watching your journeys. ❤️❤️❤️
I had a bad accident on a horse in 2014, broke both my hips, and cracked my pelvis in half. I had tons of love and support with my barrel dream prior to the accident. Sold all my horses 10 months ago to get my body and mind right and now that I'm going back into the sport I have no support, my friend who also rides is the only one supporting me and she's now pregnant so she can't help me. My father won't let borrow his truck to haul and I no longer own a trailer, so it's renting until I can save up for my own. I have gotten so many comments about how I shouldn't be doing what I'm doing but you inspire me to live my own life and make my own choices every day. Thank you for your vlogs, they are what pushes me to keep going because at the end of the day I know you truly believe in all your fans, thank you Fallon and the crew
I'm so glad this channel is out here! Even though I'm a hunter jumper, I absolutely dig Western! Your channel brings me such happiness. I always felt like I wasn't good enough and I would compare my self to other riders... Fallon you make me feel so confident... I feel your podcasts have just made my riding go to a whole nother level mentally! Thank you, Julia
It’s very apparent to me your parents instilled in you what money could never buy!! Nothing but love and respect Fallon! Keep doing you...with your chin up and forget that haters. I find not only you but your support group of “friends” or should I say family 😍 to be so real and down to earth ...totally exhibiting what is good in this world! ❤️ Mad appreciation towards your parents...and all the parents that support their daughters/sons as they have!
Young Fallon giving all the Ricky Bobby vibes...”I just like it cuz I get to go fast a lot.” When I was 4 I set a goal to be valedictorian. As I got older I realized that was my way to get to college & college was my way to escape poverty. A couple months after I received my degree I bought a gently used green mustang. The first time I drove it back home, someone said, “Daddy must have paid a lot for that,” to which I said, “No, I did.” & I promptly made my own sign for the back window that said “Daddy’s money didn’t buy this. I did!” I drove that car for 10 years & loved every second of it. It was my first big reward for a job well done.
Thank you for being a huge role model for everybody, you really make a difference in some peoples lives, like mine I’ve struggled a lot but when I found your page, I’ve overcome many
I’m a girl some a small city. I have loved horses my whole life and it 4th grade I started to ride. I was really scared to share my dream because I was afraid of all the judgement I would get from peers. Every time I would bring up horses, they would just loom at me different. I started to take riding more serious and was determined to become better at it. My mom paid half for my lessons and I paid the other half. These were very expensive and my mom knew that, but she knew how much I loved it and wants to me reach my goals. She always made sure I had a ride to my lessons and camps.Just last year I started to watch you videos. When I first wanted you I saw how amazing you were and just had to learn more about you and follow your story. I see you a big role model in my life. You are a big time horse women who had made it from bottom to top and I just love that about you. You helped me to see that I shouldn’t try to keep my equestrianism in the dark and bring out to shine in the light. I constantly am trying to do new things with horses and with other different, new things. I’ve come to see that it’s great to be the one who does the non normal. Popular sports(basketball,etc.) and other things. I stick to what I want and strive for what I want to be and do in my life. Thanks a lot Fallon for inspiring and hearing out my story ❤️❤️
Fallon, this means so much! I was a really lucky kid and had expensive horses to compete. Now I'm 18, paying for my own horses, I am lucky enough to still live at home, but it's so much harder when you're responsible for yourself! But I am very grateful for my parents and everything they offer.
Fallon is such an inspiration on how you can go from somewhere like the Canada story to where she is now she’s absolutely an inspiration and never fails to keep positive and her followers positive!!
Loved this! Having support from parents through the years doesn't mean someone's privileged, it means they are blessed. Struggle builds character and makes you appreciate what you have. 😊
Anyone who really follows you and knows at least most of your story wouldn't assume that you were 'given' success - that's ridiculous. But parents and background are relevant and yours definitely gave you a leg up. Your humility and continued success honors that.
I’m new to barrel racing/rodeo but I’ve been into horses my whole like but I think barrel racing is my path I want to take I have never had any close family support involved in the sport after my mom left me and my dad about half a year ago and I’m struggling to get my bills paid right now and I’m really hoping rodeos open back up soon so I can explore more in this direction. Such an inspiration Fallon ❤️
I’ve been doing rodeo my whole life and been barrel racing since I was three.I started trick riding last March, and started jumping this winter. I have 21 horses.
Hey my Daddy’s dollars helped put me through Cosmetology school and later helped me with part of down payment to buy a Hair Salon. Nothing wrong with getting help when they can do it!! Bless you Fallon!! Your Dad reminds me so much of mine. I lost mine in 2003. Think of him everyday!!
I'm 15 I'm from a really small town in Wisconsin. I have my very own training business and hope to grow that larger. I also compete in the Jr. WPRA and I'm super thankful for all my Mom has done to help me out along the way. I'm also really thankful for my Aunt Lisa for letting me help her train some really awesome horses!
I do not barrel race but we raise cattle and show cattle. My parents my husband and I all work together to make the farm thrive. We hit alot of bumbs in the road but we are still working and bettering ourselves every day. I really enjoy listening to your daily Snapchats and how you are so positive. It really helps me to stay focused and take everything in stride.
Ok, before I even start the video, I have to say that I am so thankful that you are such an inspirer because there are so many horse people that all they do is tear people down, especially if you don't have the same beliefs as them and I am thankful to have you as a mentor and that my young sister has chosen you as a mentor as well.
Your story is so inspiring I have loved barreling since forever and I have a really hard time getting the money to even just get there and my parents were never huge fans of the sport and you are so inspired and incredible
Fallon you inspire me so much i have had people tell me and my horse we would never be good enough i thought about giving up but u made me realize that giving up is not the answer and now im doing really good with my ottb thank you so much fallon!
You're such an amazing, wholesome and truly humble person. You really shouldn't have to defend yourself or your privilege or anything like that to anyone. It's no one's business but yours and it sucks that there are people nit picking at everything. You do a great job Fallon and make so many people feel proud and inspired.
My parents did not support my horse hobby. They did not go to horse shows, attend riding lessons or buy me anything. I started riding with friends in junior high. I got a job at 15 as a waitress at Pizza Hut, and was finally able to buy my own horse. I paid board, hay, vet and farrier bills all on my own. I had to ride my bike 2 miles one way (gravel roads) to see my horse at the farm where I boarded him. I had to work extra hard to make it happen for me. So if you’re one of those kids, who watched other 4H kids’ parents cheer them on while you were all alone, it will get better. The more you dig deep and refuse to give up, the more you realize you don’t need anyone else but yourself. I really respect Fallon for putting this video out there. She was given incredible opportunities early on, but didn’t have a free ride, and realizes how blessed she was.
I remember meeting you and your dad at a barrel race in Wichita, Kansas at the PKD arena in the early '90's . You were running Dr. Nick Bar, and doing a damn good job of it! Your rig was SO gorgeous and I loved it! I met your dad when we were both getting water for our horses, and I'll never forget how nice, friendly and talkative he was. I think we both got somethin' done that weekend! Nobody gets to national level success in any horse event without a lot of hard work and sacrifice. No one. So who doesn't know that? People who haven't achieved that level of success. I would suggest if they spend less time backbiting and gossiping in an effort to explain why they aren't achieving their goals, they'd have a lot more time to work on achieving their goals.
I was fortunate my grandfather had a trailer and we still use it from the 1980s. Most of my tack and everything was either a birthday or Christmas present or I busted my but trying to pay for it. I feel so proud that whenever I ride I can say I bought this. I have a horse that I got 2 years all most and he is amazing at western eq I could never afford him so my parents bought him because my other horse had passed. A few months later I bought a barrel prospect and my parents gave me a loan for him and I have him almost paid off. A lot of kids in my school this were rich because we live on a Beautiful farm because we’ve got our sticks picked up in the lawns mowed but the truth is we’re not really that rich we just can afford to own a lawnmower. I’m fortunate to have what I have and I know I care for the sport to make my goals happen. When my competition is handed everything everyone in the ring can see she’s not interested enough in the sport to keep going. That’s sad to me. I wish parents would try and make the kid find a way to pay for what they want in order to feel grateful to what they accomplished.
I find this so truthful in lots of ways my bsf gets her dirt bikes from her dad and I pay for them by myself. She understands how lucky she is this does not mean she has used “daddy dollars”! She appreciates this!
Thank you for being you and doing what you do. My mom and dad have helped me out countless times. I am starting to get on my own two feet and adult. It's difficult and I am very thankful I have my parents beside me every step of the way.
Wow. You are truly an idol. I DREAM to be like you! Thanks for shaping who I am today Fallon! ❤️ I watched you in my home town of Pendleton Oregon this year; I also met you. That gave me so much inspiration. You are such an amazing person, and I just wanted to shoot a quick thanks for everything you have done even though you don’t even know it. 💜
You have no idea how much I appreciate you sharing your story. I am lucky to be in a place where we run a riding facility so I have had access to horses my whole life. I had a "friend" who would continually tell me that I never work for anything and that my parents pay for everything (which simply isn't true), I know that if I worked for my stuff and have paid for things in different ways. I now know this stems from a place of jealousy however that's not the point. Our stories sound similar and I am very grateful to my family supporting my dreams and goals.
It doesn't matter where you started or how you got to where you are now. You are an amazing, honest, hard working woman. You inspire me to follow my dreams and to be a good person. You do you and ignore the haters.
Thank you for spreading this Fallon. For as long as I can remember it was just me, my mom, and my grandfather. My first barrel horse was a little $800 grade horse with a big attitude that I saved up all year for which I only got after riding my instructors horses for two years. Then my grandfather supprised me with a 1995 Sundowner two horse so I wouldn't have to haul in our "iron shuttle" two horse trailer. But I am making it! Just remember that if you have a dream chase it! Don't wait for it work for it!
Thank you for not letting the haters get to you. You are such a role model for me! Your generosity and selflessness together with your compassion for horses and other people make you so much more amazing than those people who don't appreciate how much work you've done to get where you are now! Thank you for being a good person and role model for girls like me. ❤❤
Don't ever apologize for the support you get from your parents! If they have it to give, yes of course they should indulge their children! You took and built on it!
I love how Fallon is always so positive and such a good role model she is my idol and I love her 😍 She just shows that anyone can do anything you can put your mind too. She is so independent and amazing.😍😍😍 I love you ❤️
Every time I watch your videos they bring me such confidence and inspiration. I’m 16, and for the past three years I have been saving up to get riding lessons. My family can’t afford to pay for them, so I’ve had to work for what money I have. (Nothing compared to what you went through though!) Hopefully, I’ll finally get my foot in the door and start the long process to achieving my dream! I’ve always felt like an outcast to the “equestrian world” since I don’t ride or take lessons. I always get shoved into the “horse girl” category. It’s not easy for me to take being called that or being looked down upon all of the time. I try my best to do my research, and such, but no one really gives me the time of day...But I’m hoping and praying one day my work will pay off and maybe I can be an inspiration to others like me. Thanks again, Fallon! ❤️
My 1st trailer was 15 yrs older than me. My horse atm was a 17.3 ottb who was not fond of low roofs, so we couldnt couldnt use the barn trailer that everyone else used anymore. The floor was huge thick wood planks. There was no room for tack. The best thing about it was it had a ramp. Got it for $700 & had it for yrs. No issue ever!!
I am so lucky to grow up on a ranch with lots of wonderful horses. I don’t have a good trailer at all it is rusty. Fallon gives me so much inspiration and Confidence. I am a little barrel racer and love the sport and I do a little goat tying also!
As someone who comes from the jumper world, I heard a lot of “daddy’s dollars” when Bruce Springsteen’s daughter Jessica won Medal Maclay. Daddy’s dollars can buy a lot, but it most certainly cannot buy your work ethic! Just like Jessica, you’ve worked so hard and done so much behind the scenes for earn your success. Keep on working hard and proving them you can!
You're such an inspiration Fallon! After I graduated college, I decided to move to Colombia, South America. I met my now husband here and I am working for an American sales company here in Medellín. I had so many goals for 2020. I wanted to get promoted, buy a vehicle and move into an apartment. We are renting a room right now. Covid19 has put a halt on all of it. It's easy to feel stuck right now. However, I still have a job and a roof over my head. Maybe this time is meant for us to reflect on the things that we have instead of focusing on what we don't have. I have been following you for 10 years and I think you're incredible! ❤️
You’re a beautiful person inside and out, how anyone could be a hater towards a person that gives so much to everyone, I’ll never know, these vlogs are free for us to learn and enjoy! I woke up to flowers on my kitchen table and a metabolic balancing kit left in my barn by her for my horse that was a bleeder when Fallon layed up at my house during rodeo season, her gratitude gushes out of her! So giving and caring! God bless you Fallon and always sending prayers that He protect you from all the negativity today and always! You’re a blessing girl! 🙏🏻💪🏼✌🏼🤩😇❤️
I'm 14 going on 15 and I've been riding western for 5 years. I don't have a horse but always have dreamed of having one. In school people talk about their dream careers and when I say want I want to do everyone talks down on me, but I'm going to prove them wrong someday! You give me a lot of confidence and support and I love y'all so much thank you for being their!
Between divorced parents, and not seeing my horses on daily basses.I can't be like all the other girls that ride everyday. But my dream is to go to the NFR, and someday I will, because even though I don't get to see my horses daily doesn't mean that those girls that do work harder than me. I work just as hard if not more, because I have to work 4 days of work into 4-6 hours. Fallon has made me realize that I don't need a fancy trailer, or ride everyday, it's the hard work and dedication that makes you a champion. Fallon is the greatest and no one needs to say anything bad about her... what did she ever do to you.
I started barrel racing a year ago. My parents supported me from start. I didn't have anyone to train so I thought myself on a horse that hadn't been ridden in two years. It took some time but we have a okay time. I've ridden three horse on the pattern. My last timed run( I don't have an arena to practice in or fields are to dangerous to run barrels in) was 16 something and I'm so proud of that time. It's my personal record. But I wasn't on my mare, who I believe has never run the pattern until I got her. Our fastest time is 22 something and I'm still super proud of that. I don't have very much but I do have a dream and my horse and with thoughs two things, I believe anything is possible.
Love you Fallon. I came from little but the little my mother was able to give me she gave me a fire in my heart that will never die!! And I might not be able to be as great a horseman as you and good a ride but your defiantly make me push for my best because of you and her!!! Much love to you 🖤🖤
I grew up in a house with parents that were alcoholics. I moved out of my parents house an in with my grandparents when I was 13. They supported with me with all of my sports besides rodeo. When I won my first 2 buckles they thought I was never going to win one. I proved them wrong. They only came to 2 JR Rodeos in my rodeo career. The horses I was riding at the time was a neighbors of my grandparents. I am so greatful for them!! They were what I needed in my life. In 2017 I bought my first horse. I didn't find out about her past until after I bought her. She was abused and scared ( I am her 5th and last owner). She has a front R leg that is crooked but hasn't stopped or affected her in anyway. I worked with her and this is our 2nd year of competing. We had to deal with an injury our first year competing and alleyway issues last year. This year at our last race we ran our first 17. This year is going to be our year for sure. We are proving everyone wrong. I know my mare is the underdog and we are going to prove everyone wrong. She has given me a lot of new knowledge. My neighbor ( I call her my adopted mom) has helped me so much with my mare. I have been writing down my yearly goals for 2 years now. This year I made this a little different for me. The first 2 are for me mainly and the rest are for my horse and I.I am planning to go pro within the next couple years. Thank you for being a inspiration for me. I hope I can meet you one day. P.s My cousin got me your autograph at the ERA rodeo in Boise. River
Because you are a beautiful person inside and out you love your horses you love your parents you love your family and friends this what makes you and nobody else so keep on doing the good job you do if your horses God bless you and be careful and be safe
My parents didn't have much when I was growing up, we had to eat pasta every single night until I was 8. I started riding when I was 6 and they supported me through everything and I'm so greatful for all the opportunities they have given me. Thank you for being such an amazing role model!
Fallon you are absolutely amazing . You are so inspiring. I can even express how much u have helped me with loving myself. I watch every video and wish I could still have my horse but had to sell her. But I love you and the girls ...
I wish I had Daddy's dollars!!! My fall out was 7 back surgery's... I've been a fan of yours for some time now!!! And I've seen how hard you have worked to get where you are now!!! I love you and I love how you are always giving back as well!!! Your an amazing lady!!! Keep up being you!!!
Girl I've been struggling for a while. I lost my grandpa who is the reason I love horses soo much. I want to honor him but I'm slowly very slowly makin it happen. I want a horse so bad but I have no trailer and not much of a place to keep it other than a boarding barn. U inspire me everyday. I've met u once and hope to meet u again. I'd love to hear from u sometime Fallon. I get discouraged because my mother has pretty much abandon me and doesnt support me at all and has said I'll never make it or that I'm not good enough to run barrels that I cant do it.. please fallon reach out if ur not to busy . I want to come to the ranch and learn from the best .
You totally deserve what you have worked so hard for! You have the biggest most generous heart and soul! I grew up hearing that I was spoiled and the truth was no body saw behind the scenes. I am still now taking crap for the trailer of my dreams I bought in 2017 it took me all of my life and on my own to get it! So you bet I’m proud of it and the horses I have! And I’m still working my butt off! 💗💗💗
I watch a lot of your barrel videos. You are such an inspiration to me. I want to become a barrel racer but my family is on the low income side and I can’t a younger horse because mine have joint issues and it hurts them to run. I’m hoping to keep getting inspiration from you. Love you Fallon❤️ you are my biggest role model
My parents bought me a beautiful barn and some horses when I was a kid. But after I got married my parents business went under and my husband and I had to sell almost all our belongings to buy the barn and move to the property to keep my lifestyle. Everyone thinks my daddy supports me, but they have no idea how we're living like popers to make ends meet especially when we found out we had a baby on the way in the middle of moving. I'm so grateful to my parents, always, but the people dont understand they aren't the only ones who hustle hard. They taught me well 💪
I’m older now and can no longer ride do to health issues but when I was younger I was always at the barn. My friends were partying and drinking. I was riding. When I was 12, my mother bought me a $200 pony. I kept her at a show barn and soon got the itch for a show horse. I begged my mother and father for another horse. My dad made it very clear that he would not “give” me a horse. I had to work for it. I did. My parents had money.... we weren’t filthy rich but we didn’t want for anything. The lesson I learned from that day was that hard work, dedication, and single-minded focus would eventually get results. I had to work for that horse for a year. Then he and I won the North American Juvenile Pleasure Championship (Saddlebreds). For those of you feeling you will never have all the “stuff” your friends have... keep working. It will happen. Oh.... I had a friend who had two horses. They were named Daddy’s Money and Mr. Bank.
I've always wanted to ride and compete, but I've never had enough money to. I am hoping I can eventually take lessons to do so. You are an idol to me and your story makes me even more hopeful!
Oh my goodness you are such a blessing and inspiration to me as a teenage girl in the same position you were in as a teenager, I am in tears and feel so empowered right know thank you so much💕💕💕
I love that Fallon defends her favorite things from the haters without putting down other people’s things. One of the things I admire most about her.
I love barrel racing, I may have to do it a little differently sometimes (I’m legallly blind) but it makes me feel like I actually fit in and that “I’m normal” I know that I can always count on my horse to be there for me even if nobody else is. Fallon, you are an inspiration to me, I really hope one day I can meet you in person to tell you how much you have helped me.
My parents spend a lot of money and time just to see me barrel race and compete ,and I'm so grateful .you inspire me so much .
Haha “daddy’s dollars”. Isn’t that like putting your kids in little league or in college? After all that it’s what you make of it! You should name one of your next colts daddy’s dollars.
Orrrr...... flobow daddys dollars
Victoria Fraysure daddy’s cash flo
Haha that’s a great idea!!!
@@chalenivy0039 i really like yours

I'm 17, starting way later than I'd like, but I never had the choice when I was younger. Your videos have inspired me so much. I am going to get a job soon and save up for not only another horse, but all the barrel racing essentials. This is my dream, and I have two people who stand behind me and believe that I can do it. You are the one who made me realize that I can accomplish this.
It’s never too late to get involved in horses! :)
Good luck on your equestrian journey. I'm 14, so I cant get a job but when I do plus get my driver's license i can finally start leasing. I feel the struggle.
I got my first horse last year at 22! Never ridden a horse before that, im doing my first online show this week!
Ivy Mercedes 17 is still young my dude! I grew up riding and working at other people’s barns but I’ve never actually owned my horse which is my dream. I grew up in suburbia so I didn’t have the property and my parents could afford leasing or buying and boarding a horse for me as a kid. I always knew that I’d never be able to my own my own horse until I was an adult, that’s just the way it happens sometimes.
that's great! would love to have an update :)
My teacher one day was asking all of us what we want to do when we’re older, everyone was saying things like an actor, or a marine biological, and stuff like that, but I said that I want to compete in the WPRA and the NFR, I compete in the Maritime Barrel Racing Association rn, and she looked right at me and laughed and said “u might wanna have a back up plan” and now, all I wanna do is prove her wrong, so I’m gonna work even harder
Brooke Joyce I got that all the time in highschool. Even yesterday, My husband and I were selling my first car to a guy and he was asking what are plans are. (Husband just got out of the Marine Corps, I get out tomorrow) he said “I’m going to lineman school after this” the guy asked me and I said I’m getting my pro rodeo permit next year and he told my husband “lol you better work hard” 🤦🏽♀️
Brooke Joyce yasss dream huge!!!
Haters are great motivation. Hang on to that feeling of wanting to prove them wrong. It's a great feeling when they get a good look of a new buckle you just won.
Brooke Joyce heck yeah!! You’ve got this!!
Do it.
My Grandad has always made sure I had a horse to ride, a place to keep my horses and a place to work barrels. He even built me a barn with an indoor roundpen. That has helped but anytime I've ever won anything it's been because I worked hard. I rode when it was cold or missed hanging out with friends because I had a horse show coming up... Sure I have my own barn, a nice rig and decent horses but none of that stuff makes a winner. It's the time and effort you put into it. 💜💜💜 When I was winning the pole bending every weekend on a horse I trained people started rumors that we paid a whole bunch for her when the reality is we bought her for basically kill pen price because she was a problem horse. I worked with her and she ended up loving the poles. 🤷♀️ Successful people are too busy working on themselves to worry about other people. If you've been subjected to hate just know you are being noticed enough to be on their minds!
Yes, my parents have 100% supported me, they’ve paid for my barrel lessons since i was little, they paid for my horses since i was little (i was always leasing or using family members horses, who weren’t using them), but my parents always said I had to save and buy my own horse if i wanted one. I was always out on nice competitive horses, and did win my share of checks. Yes i was still able to jackpot, and get around places when i was younger, i’d haul with family or friends, but my parents always instilled hard work into me, and i knew i needed to buy, and support my own horse if i wanted one. By the time I was 15, i got a part time job, and also had people sending me client horses, to put miles on, and start. I saved up enough money and at the age of 15, bought myself a gorgeous, nicely bred, AQHA filly, who is now 3, and seriously the best thing to happen to me!! I continue to save for new tack as i have the money, and for a trailer of my own, but i’m so proud to say my parents helped me get where I am, and i now have a self made horse, who is turning into one heck of a mare, and barrel prospect😊 and no my parents didn’t let me take the easy way out on things they’ve always made sure I save to buy good quality fitting tack, good feed and supplements, good horses, and the proper equipment!
I was introduced to horses at age 10, bought my own horse at $500 with my allowance I saved up for 3 years but look lessons until I bought my horse and kept her at a friend’s house. I had to clean horse stalls, clean tack, ride other people horses to make money. With that money I saved up enough to buy fencing and a shelter I could put up at my dads house for my horse. It took my 3 years to be able to do that. I now have my horse, a trailer I built, and my truck (the only thing my parents bought me) all at my dads house. No one believed in me but I fought for what I have. I’m now 17 and working 3 jobs to be able to pay for monthly hay and feed, and a farrier appointment every 6 weeks, and my yearly vet appointment. Everything I have for my horse came outta my pockets. Thank you so much for your videos. They are very inspirational and I love watching your journeys. ❤️❤️❤️
Miranda That is so awesome, way to go!!
This is so inspirational!! I pray you go big. Keep working hard and you will see the fruits of your labor.
I had a bad accident on a horse in 2014, broke both my hips, and cracked my pelvis in half. I had tons of love and support with my barrel dream prior to the accident. Sold all my horses 10 months ago to get my body and mind right and now that I'm going back into the sport I have no support, my friend who also rides is the only one supporting me and she's now pregnant so she can't help me. My father won't let borrow his truck to haul and I no longer own a trailer, so it's renting until I can save up for my own. I have gotten so many comments about how I shouldn't be doing what I'm doing but you inspire me to live my own life and make my own choices every day. Thank you for your vlogs, they are what pushes me to keep going because at the end of the day I know you truly believe in all your fans, thank you Fallon and the crew
Doctor Nick Bar looks JUST LIKE my horse named Dan who I barrel race on. And he is my first. Thats crazy cool!!!
I'm so glad this channel is out here! Even though I'm a hunter jumper, I absolutely dig Western! Your channel brings me such happiness. I always felt like I wasn't good enough and I would compare my self to other riders... Fallon you make me feel so confident... I feel your podcasts have just made my riding go to a whole nother level mentally! Thank you,
Julia
It’s very apparent to me your parents instilled in you what money could never buy!! Nothing but love and respect Fallon! Keep doing you...with your chin up and forget that haters. I find not only you but your support group of “friends” or should I say family 😍 to be so real and down to earth ...totally exhibiting what is good in this world! ❤️ Mad appreciation towards your parents...and all the parents that support their daughters/sons as they have!
Young Fallon giving all the Ricky Bobby vibes...”I just like it cuz I get to go fast a lot.”
When I was 4 I set a goal to be valedictorian. As I got older I realized that was my way to get to college & college was my way to escape poverty. A couple months after I received my degree I bought a gently used green mustang. The first time I drove it back home, someone said, “Daddy must have paid a lot for that,” to which I said, “No, I did.” & I promptly made my own sign for the back window that said “Daddy’s money didn’t buy this. I did!” I drove that car for 10 years & loved every second of it. It was my first big reward for a job well done.
I'm 13 and I love barrel racing I have barrel raced for as long as u can remember and you are such a role model for me. Luv u Fallon ♥️
Kate _42 Omg SAME!
Kate _42 🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼

Lonnie Randoph hi
HI FALLON
@@fallontaylor Fallon if you see this, please tell me! I love you so much and you inspired me to barrel race! ❤️🇺🇸💕🛢🐎
I’m a girl some a small city. I have loved horses my whole life and it 4th grade I started to ride. I was really scared to share my dream because I was afraid of all the judgement I would get from peers. Every time I would bring up horses, they would just loom at me different. I started to take riding more serious and was determined to become better at it. My mom paid half for my lessons and I paid the other half. These were very expensive and my mom knew that, but she knew how much I loved it and wants to me reach my goals. She always made sure I had a ride to my lessons and camps.Just last year I started to watch you videos. When I first wanted you I saw how amazing you were and just had to learn more about you and follow your story. I see you a big role model in my life. You are a big time horse women who had made it from bottom to top and I just love that about you. You helped me to see that I shouldn’t try to keep my equestrianism in the dark and bring out to shine in the light. I constantly am trying to do new things with horses and with other different, new things. I’ve come to see that it’s great to be the one who does the non normal. Popular sports(basketball,etc.) and other things. I stick to what I want and strive for what I want to be and do in my life. Thanks a lot Fallon for inspiring and hearing out my story ❤️❤️
Fallon, this means so much! I was a really lucky kid and had expensive horses to compete. Now I'm 18, paying for my own horses, I am lucky enough to still live at home, but it's so much harder when you're responsible for yourself! But I am very grateful for my parents and everything they offer.
Fallon is such an inspiration on how you can go from somewhere like the Canada story to where she is now she’s absolutely an inspiration and never fails to keep positive and her followers positive!!
Loved this! Having support from parents through the years doesn't mean someone's privileged, it means they are blessed. Struggle builds character and makes you appreciate what you have. 😊
I need a “Mommy’s dollars” tshirt since some of us weren’t lucky enough to grow up with a dad! 😞
Same, but I need one that says "grandaddy's dollars"!
Was thinking the same thing.
speaking fax
Anyone who really follows you and knows at least most of your story wouldn't assume that you were 'given' success - that's ridiculous. But parents and background are relevant and yours definitely gave you a leg up. Your humility and continued success honors that.
I’m new to barrel racing/rodeo but I’ve been into horses my whole like but I think barrel racing is my path I want to take I have never had any close family support involved in the sport after my mom left me and my dad about half a year ago and I’m struggling to get my bills paid right now and I’m really hoping rodeos open back up soon so I can explore more in this direction. Such an inspiration Fallon ❤️
I’ve been doing rodeo my whole life and been barrel racing since I was three.I started trick riding last March, and started jumping this winter. I have 21 horses.
Hey my Daddy’s dollars helped put me through Cosmetology school and later helped me with part of down payment to buy a Hair Salon. Nothing wrong with getting help when they can do it!! Bless you Fallon!! Your Dad reminds me so much of mine. I lost mine in 2003. Think of him everyday!!
I'm 15 I'm from a really small town in Wisconsin. I have my very own training business and hope to grow that larger. I also compete in the Jr. WPRA and I'm super thankful for all my Mom has done to help me out along the way. I'm also really thankful for my Aunt Lisa for letting me help her train some really awesome horses!
I do not barrel race but we raise cattle and show cattle. My parents my husband and I all work together to make the farm thrive. We hit alot of bumbs in the road but we are still working and bettering ourselves every day. I really enjoy listening to your daily Snapchats and how you are so positive. It really helps me to stay focused and take everything in stride.
I love the “I just love it cause I get to go fast!” Girl that sums it up for me too!!! Love u.
Ok, before I even start the video, I have to say that I am so thankful that you are such an inspirer because there are so many horse people that all they do is tear people down, especially if you don't have the same beliefs as them and I am thankful to have you as a mentor and that my young sister has chosen you as a mentor as well.
Your story is so inspiring I have loved barreling since forever and I have a really hard time getting the money to even just get there and my parents were never huge fans of the sport and you are so inspired and incredible
Shelley Doublehat 🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼
Fallon you inspire me so much i have had people tell me and my horse we would never be good enough i thought about giving up but u made me realize that giving up is not the answer and now im doing really good with my ottb thank you so much fallon!
You're A Great Motivational Speaker and Inspiration!
Tell the haters/critics..."Don't Let ENVY turn to hate!" God Bless you & your Family
You're such an amazing, wholesome and truly humble person. You really shouldn't have to defend yourself or your privilege or anything like that to anyone. It's no one's business but yours and it sucks that there are people nit picking at everything. You do a great job Fallon and make so many people feel proud and inspired.
My parents did not support my horse hobby. They did not go to horse shows, attend riding lessons or buy me anything. I started riding with friends in junior high. I got a job at 15 as a waitress at Pizza Hut, and was finally able to buy my own horse. I paid board, hay, vet and farrier bills all on my own. I had to ride my bike 2 miles one way (gravel roads) to see my horse at the farm where I boarded him. I had to work extra hard to make it happen for me. So if you’re one of those kids, who watched other 4H kids’ parents cheer them on while you were all alone, it will get better. The more you dig deep and refuse to give up, the more you realize you don’t need anyone else but yourself. I really respect Fallon for putting this video out there. She was given incredible opportunities early on, but didn’t have a free ride, and realizes how blessed she was.
I remember meeting you and your dad at a barrel race in Wichita, Kansas at the PKD arena in the early '90's . You were running Dr. Nick Bar, and doing a damn good job of it! Your rig was SO gorgeous and I loved it! I met your dad when we were both getting water for our horses, and I'll never forget how nice, friendly and talkative he was. I think we both got somethin' done that weekend! Nobody gets to national level success in any horse event without a lot of hard work and sacrifice. No one. So who doesn't know that? People who haven't achieved that level of success. I would suggest if they spend less time backbiting and gossiping in an effort to explain why they aren't achieving their goals, they'd have a lot more time to work on achieving their goals.
I was fortunate my grandfather had a trailer and we still use it from the 1980s. Most of my tack and everything was either a birthday or Christmas present or I busted my but trying to pay for it. I feel so proud that whenever I ride I can say I bought this. I have a horse that I got 2 years all most and he is amazing at western eq I could never afford him so my parents bought him because my other horse had passed. A few months later I bought a barrel prospect and my parents gave me a loan for him and I have him almost paid off. A lot of kids in my school this were rich because we live on a Beautiful farm because we’ve got our sticks picked up in the lawns mowed but the truth is we’re not really that rich we just can afford to own a lawnmower. I’m fortunate to have what I have and I know I care for the sport to make my goals happen. When my competition is handed everything everyone in the ring can see she’s not interested enough in the sport to keep going. That’s sad to me. I wish parents would try and make the kid find a way to pay for what they want in order to feel grateful to what they accomplished.
Respect..gratitude,, and heart = Fallon...Always strong
I find this so truthful in lots of ways my bsf gets her dirt bikes from her dad and I pay for them by myself. She understands how lucky she is this does not mean she has used “daddy dollars”! She appreciates this!
This made me feel so touch and emotional knowing people like Fallon have such amazing story’s to their success.
Thank you for being you and doing what you do. My mom and dad have helped me out countless times. I am starting to get on my own two feet and adult. It's difficult and I am very thankful I have my parents beside me every step of the way.
Wow. You are truly an idol. I DREAM to be like you! Thanks for shaping who I am today Fallon! ❤️ I watched you in my home town of Pendleton Oregon this year; I also met you. That gave me so much inspiration. You are such an amazing person, and I just wanted to shoot a quick thanks for everything you have done even though you don’t even know it. 💜
You have no idea how much I appreciate you sharing your story. I am lucky to be in a place where we run a riding facility so I have had access to horses my whole life. I had a "friend" who would continually tell me that I never work for anything and that my parents pay for everything (which simply isn't true), I know that if I worked for my stuff and have paid for things in different ways. I now know this stems from a place of jealousy however that's not the point. Our stories sound similar and I am very grateful to my family supporting my dreams and goals.
It doesn't matter where you started or how you got to where you are now. You are an amazing, honest, hard working woman. You inspire me to follow my dreams and to be a good person. You do you and ignore the haters.
Thank you for spreading this Fallon. For as long as I can remember it was just me, my mom, and my grandfather. My first barrel horse was a little $800 grade horse with a big attitude that I saved up all year for which I only got after riding my instructors horses for two years. Then my grandfather supprised me with a 1995 Sundowner two horse so I wouldn't have to haul in our "iron shuttle" two horse trailer. But I am making it! Just remember that if you have a dream chase it! Don't wait for it work for it!
Thank you for not letting the haters get to you. You are such a role model for me! Your generosity and selflessness together with your compassion for horses and other people make you so much more amazing than those people who don't appreciate how much work you've done to get where you are now! Thank you for being a good person and role model for girls like me. ❤❤
Fallon!! You are amazing! Thank you for sharing your story again! I am so blessed to call you a coach and you help me make my horse dreams come true!
Don't ever apologize for the support you get from your parents! If they have it to give, yes of course they should indulge their children! You took and built on it!
I love how Fallon is always so positive and such a good role model she is my idol and I love her 😍 She just shows that anyone can do anything you can put your mind too. She is so independent and amazing.😍😍😍 I love you ❤️
Animals Are awesome 101 you can do it too 🙌🏼
Thank you so much Fallon❤️❤️❤️
Every time I watch your videos they bring me such confidence and inspiration. I’m 16, and for the past three years I have been saving up to get riding lessons. My family can’t afford to pay for them, so I’ve had to work for what money I have. (Nothing compared to what you went through though!) Hopefully, I’ll finally get my foot in the door and start the long process to achieving my dream! I’ve always felt like an outcast to the “equestrian world” since I don’t ride or take lessons. I always get shoved into the “horse girl” category. It’s not easy for me to take being called that or being looked down upon all of the time. I try my best to do my research, and such, but no one really gives me the time of day...But I’m hoping and praying one day my work will pay off and maybe I can be an inspiration to others like me. Thanks again, Fallon! ❤️
you have a lot of light in you Fallon, you seem like an awesome human being, keep on keepin’ on! thanks for the videos!
Love what you have. Someone else thinks you have it all. No matter what you have.
My 1st trailer was 15 yrs older than me. My horse atm was a 17.3 ottb who was not fond of low roofs, so we couldnt couldnt use the barn trailer that everyone else used anymore. The floor was huge thick wood planks. There was no room for tack. The best thing about it was it had a ramp. Got it for $700 & had it for yrs. No issue ever!!
I am so lucky to grow up on a ranch with lots of wonderful horses. I don’t have a good trailer at all it is rusty. Fallon gives me so much inspiration and Confidence. I am a little barrel racer and love the sport and I do a little goat tying also!
Fallon, I had not heard anything but glad you clarified.... YOU ROCK and are such a bright light that the world needs - So SHINE ON :)
As someone who comes from the jumper world, I heard a lot of “daddy’s dollars” when Bruce Springsteen’s daughter Jessica won Medal Maclay. Daddy’s dollars can buy a lot, but it most certainly cannot buy your work ethic! Just like Jessica, you’ve worked so hard and done so much behind the scenes for earn your success. Keep on working hard and proving them you can!
brought tears to my eyes, been there, and worse Thanks for sharing.
You are my idol and the reason why I started barrel racing! You are so inspiring!!
J Swan I agree, she’s awesome!!
I love you Fallon for your beauty , inside & OUT. YOU'RE A GREAT ROLE MODEL FOR OUR YOUTH AND US ADULTS.
You're such an inspiration Fallon! After I graduated college, I decided to move to Colombia, South America. I met my now husband here and I am working for an American sales company here in Medellín. I had so many goals for 2020. I wanted to get promoted, buy a vehicle and move into an apartment. We are renting a room right now. Covid19 has put a halt on all of it. It's easy to feel stuck right now. However, I still have a job and a roof over my head. Maybe this time is meant for us to reflect on the things that we have instead of focusing on what we don't have. I have been following you for 10 years and I think you're incredible! ❤️
You’re a beautiful person inside and out, how anyone could be a hater towards a person that gives so much to everyone, I’ll never know, these vlogs are free for us to learn and enjoy! I woke up to flowers on my kitchen table and a metabolic balancing kit left in my barn by her for my horse that was a bleeder when Fallon layed up at my house during rodeo season, her gratitude gushes out of her! So giving and caring! God bless you Fallon and always sending prayers that He protect you from all the negativity today and always! You’re a blessing girl! 🙏🏻💪🏼✌🏼🤩😇❤️
Videos like this is exactly why My 3 little girls flow you and I am so proud of you for being a great person and role model
Proud of you for making this video.
i love you Fallon taylor.... you have taught me to be confident.
I'm 14 going on 15 and I've been riding western for 5 years. I don't have a horse but always have dreamed of having one. In school people talk about their dream careers and when I say want I want to do everyone talks down on me, but I'm going to prove them wrong someday! You give me a lot of confidence and support and I love y'all so much thank you for being their!
Between divorced parents, and not seeing my horses on daily basses.I can't be like all the other girls that ride everyday. But my dream is to go to the NFR, and someday I will, because even though I don't get to see my horses daily doesn't mean that those girls that do work harder than me. I work just as hard if not more, because I have to work 4 days of work into 4-6 hours. Fallon has made me realize that I don't need a fancy trailer, or ride everyday, it's the hard work and dedication that makes you a champion. Fallon is the greatest and no one needs to say anything bad about her... what did she ever do to you.
I started barrel racing a year ago. My parents supported me from start. I didn't have anyone to train so I thought myself on a horse that hadn't been ridden in two years. It took some time but we have a okay time. I've ridden three horse on the pattern. My last timed run( I don't have an arena to practice in or fields are to dangerous to run barrels in) was 16 something and I'm so proud of that time. It's my personal record. But I wasn't on my mare, who I believe has never run the pattern until I got her. Our fastest time is 22 something and I'm still super proud of that. I don't have very much but I do have a dream and my horse and with thoughs two things, I believe anything is possible.
Love you Fallon. I came from little but the little my mother was able to give me she gave me a fire in my heart that will never die!! And I might not be able to be as great a horseman as you and good a ride but your defiantly make me push for my best because of you and her!!! Much love to you 🖤🖤
I love you so much fallon! Your so inspiring! You make horse riding so much more interseting when I hear your stories!
Hey Fallon I love you and my horse is gone and everytime I watch you, you make me feel better 🙂
I grew up in a house with parents that were alcoholics. I moved out of my parents house an in with my grandparents when I was 13. They supported with me with all of my sports besides rodeo. When I won my first 2 buckles they thought I was never going to win one. I proved them wrong. They only came to 2 JR Rodeos in my rodeo career. The horses I was riding at the time was a neighbors of my grandparents. I am so greatful for them!! They were what I needed in my life. In 2017 I bought my first horse. I didn't find out about her past until after I bought her. She was abused and scared ( I am her 5th and last owner). She has a front R leg that is crooked but hasn't stopped or affected her in anyway. I worked with her and this is our 2nd year of competing. We had to deal with an injury our first year competing and alleyway issues last year. This year at our last race we ran our first 17. This year is going to be our year for sure. We are proving everyone wrong. I know my mare is the underdog and we are going to prove everyone wrong. She has given me a lot of new knowledge. My neighbor ( I call her my adopted mom) has helped me so much with my mare. I have been writing down my yearly goals for 2 years now. This year I made this a little different for me. The first 2 are for me mainly and the rest are for my horse and I.I am planning to go pro within the next couple years. Thank you for being a inspiration for me. I hope I can meet you one day. P.s My cousin got me your autograph at the ERA rodeo in Boise.
River
Go girl! you can do it! thats for sure!!

My parents didn't have much when I was growing up, we had to eat pasta every single night until I was 8. I started riding when I was 6 and they supported me through everything and I'm so greatful for all the opportunities they have given me. Thank you for being such an amazing role model!
More people NEED to see this!!!! Love you to bits Fallon🤠🤠
so sad you even have to explain yourself!!! we love you and how far you’ve came!
Fallon you are absolutely amazing . You are so inspiring. I can even express how much u have helped me with loving myself. I watch every video and wish I could still have my horse but had to sell her. But I love you and the girls ...
Dunn It Flo by Daddy's Dollars or Daddy's Dollars Flo for a new one of your babies...

Anna Fyfe wow you’ve overcome so much 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Thank you! I still do ride some I have 2 Tennessee walking horses now.
Girl I've been struggling for a while. I lost my grandpa who is the reason I love horses soo much. I want to honor him but I'm slowly very slowly makin it happen. I want a horse so bad but I have no trailer and not much of a place to keep it other than a boarding barn. U inspire me everyday. I've met u once and hope to meet u again. I'd love to hear from u sometime Fallon. I get discouraged because my mother has pretty much abandon me and doesnt support me at all and has said I'll never make it or that I'm not good enough to run barrels that I cant do it.. please fallon reach out if ur not to busy . I want to come to the ranch and learn from the best
.
U go girl....just remember haters make u famous. ....parents always want better for their children so yea they pay out for them.
Your amazing at Barrel Racing, don't listen to the haters out there
Veronica Hart yeah she’s the reason I started she’s my inspiration if I get angry I watch her and I get motivated
You totally deserve what you have worked so hard for! You have the biggest most generous heart and soul! I grew up hearing that I was spoiled and the truth was no body saw behind the scenes. I am still now taking crap for the trailer of my dreams I bought in 2017 it took me all of my life and on my own to get it! So you bet I’m proud of it and the horses I have! And I’m still working my butt off! 💗💗💗
🤗🤗🤗 THANK YOU for the MUCH NEEDED pep talk, Fallon❣❣
I watch a lot of your barrel videos. You are such an inspiration to me. I want to become a barrel racer but my family is on the low income side and I can’t a younger horse because mine have joint issues and it hurts them to run. I’m hoping to keep getting inspiration from you. Love you Fallon❤️ you are my biggest role model
My parents bought me a beautiful barn and some horses when I was a kid. But after I got married my parents business went under and my husband and I had to sell almost all our belongings to buy the barn and move to the property to keep my lifestyle. Everyone thinks my daddy supports me, but they have no idea how we're living like popers to make ends meet especially when we found out we had a baby on the way in the middle of moving. I'm so grateful to my parents, always, but the people dont understand they aren't the only ones who hustle hard. They taught me well 💪
You go. Girl
Go
Thanks for the inspiration Fallon!
Hii Fallon I'm so inspired by u and I'm working really hard with my horses over the lockdown
I’m older now and can no longer ride do to health issues but when I was younger I was always at the barn. My friends were partying and drinking. I was riding. When I was 12, my mother bought me a $200 pony. I kept her at a show barn and soon got the itch for a show horse. I begged my mother and father for another horse. My dad made it very clear that he would not “give” me a horse. I had to work for it. I did. My parents had money.... we weren’t filthy rich but we didn’t want for anything. The lesson I learned from that day was that hard work, dedication, and single-minded focus would eventually get results. I had to work for that horse for a year. Then he and I won the North American Juvenile Pleasure Championship (Saddlebreds). For those of you feeling you will never have all the “stuff” your friends have... keep working. It will happen. Oh.... I had a friend who had two horses. They were named Daddy’s Money and Mr. Bank.
Wow, I totally needed to hear this, thanks for being such an inspiration!
I've always wanted to ride and compete, but I've never had enough money to. I am hoping I can eventually take lessons to do so. You are an idol to me and your story makes me even more hopeful!
Those words meant so much to me❤️ Thank you so much for sharing your story!
You are the real deal Fallon!
I love your horses
Thanks Fallon!! My confidence just soared!!!!! 😊
Thank you so much for your inspiration and love. You really are so amazing. I have so much love and respect for you
Fallon ❤️
You are so inspirational
Oh my goodness you are such a blessing and inspiration to me as a teenage girl in the same position you were in as a teenager, I am in tears and feel so empowered right know thank you so much💕💕💕
