American Farriers Journal
American Farriers Journal is the “hands-on” magazine for professional farriers, equine veterinarians and horse care product and service buyers.
Progressive Hoof Care Practitioners is hosting the webinar “Sustaining Your Hoof Care Business” on Feb. 16, 2027. The clinician is Corrie Mannion.
In this webinar, Mannion is excited to share lessons she's learned while running a hoof care business, with the goal of helping you sustain yours for years to come. Topics include safety, boundaries, relationships with clients and horses, self-advocacy, compassion fatigue, burnout and more.
After accidentally falling into trimming and having to learn how to run a business as she went, Mannion built a successful hoof care practice on the East Coast and then started over on the West Coast. Though business was running smoothly, Mannion started to feel the pain (literally and figuratively) of such a physically and emotionally demanding career. But she didn’t want to quit, so she dedicated herself to personal and professional growth. Struggling with her own mental health, work injuries, client drama and an inner sense of dissatisfaction were just a few of the obstacles along the way.
Presenter
Corrie Mannion is a barefoot trimmer and certified PHCP practitioner. She got into hoof care accidentally, all because she fell in love with a horse with failing hoof health and wanted to help. While managing his extensive rehab process, Mannion discovered a new passion and started trimming professionally in 2015. A few years later, she moved to the West Coast and started her business again in the Pacific Northwest. The magical and misty Washington state is now home to Mannion, her husband, two twin kitties, and her dog, who is often mistaken for a fox. Mannion seeks to bring a positive and practical perspective to the hoof care world, all for the higher purpose of honoring and advocating for our horses. She is passionate about friendship with other equine professionals and creating community to support each other in a challenging industry.
