Author: Helena Harris April 6, 2022 Duration: 39:28

Some people fear change, others embrace it completely. At Stall and Stable, we love change, because it often means new opportunities for adventure, fun, and for learning. Today's episode embodies that belief as Helena welcomes guest, Yash Balasaria - the CEO of our new title sponsor, American Stalls.

Yash takes us behind the scenes of American Stalls, going into detail about stall components, the pros and cons of different metals used, and more. If you love barns, build barns, or work in one, you'll find this episode very interesting, so listen in!


Helena Harris hosts Stall and Stable: Ideas for Happy Horsekeeping, a place where the details of daily life with horses are given thoughtful attention. The premise is simple yet profound: the well-being of our horses is deeply intertwined with the spaces and routines we build. This podcast digs into that reality, moving beyond theory to share practical, real-world advice. You’ll hear from veterinarians, farriers, barn managers, and other equestrian specialists, but the conversations feel more like insightful chats between friends who are deeply passionate about animal care. They cover everything from stall design and pasture management to selecting the right tools and understanding equine behavior, always with an eye toward creating a harmonious and sustainable environment. Whether you’re a parent introducing children to their first pony, a professional running a boarding facility, or someone who finds peace in the quiet of the barn after work, there’s something here for you. Each episode of this podcast aims to make the complex aspects of horsekeeping more approachable, offering strategies and product insights that can be applied directly to your own stable. It’s about fostering a lifestyle where both horses and their people can thrive, celebrating the unique bond that makes all the hard work worthwhile. Tune in for a blend of expertise and heartfelt conversation that reflects the true rhythm of life with horses.
