Jen Atkinson - The Competitive Edge

29/01/2026

✨ Something new I’m really excited about… ✨

This page has always been a great place to keep up with Team Atkinson - our journey, the highs and lows, lessons learned, and everything that comes with life in and out of the arena.

That passion for growth and confidence has now grown into a private Facebook community called
🩷 The Empowered Barrel Racer 🩷

This group is for barrel racers who want to
• Build real confidence in and out of the arena
• Strengthen connection with their horse
• Learn mindset tools that actually help on run day
• Be part of a supportive, encouraging community that truly gets it

I’ll be sharing mindset tips, confidence tools, lived experience from my own journey, and practical insights to help you find your own competitive edge.

If you’d love to join us, simply comment EMPOWERED below 👇
and I’ll add you to the group, or feel free to PM me.

Let’s lift each other up and grow together 💫🫶🏼

Proud Mumma Moments🤗

🏆Brooke was awarded Joint Junior National achiever with Ty at this week's Taupo Nui A Tia College Sports Awards. It was fantastic to see so many talented sportsmen and women representing Nui. Well done you two..you were up against some stiff competition 👌

⛳️Chad has been selected for the Bay of Plenty Golf team playing in the Regional Booth Shield Tournament this weekend. Pretty big honour.

36 holes tomorrow followed by 18 holes on Sunday. Good luck buddy.

One silver lining to the change of plans with Labour weekend rodeos means I get to be there to support my boy.😀
