About this listen

Educating the equine industry to bring us closer together as a community! I have always been passionate about promoting the equine industry and helping to inspire the next generation of horsemen and women. One of my main goals with this podcast is to provide new learning opportunities to grow their and my own knowledge of other disciplines, breeds, and several different topics that they are not apart of or no nothing about! I want to open people's minds to continue to learn more about horses and the industry to help continue their education as we are always learning and growing! I also want to help bridge the gap between the different worlds we seem to have created within the industry.

    Jul 3 2025

    Today's episode comes to you the day after my birthday and at the start of 4th of July weekend! I am joined by two returning guests this week Christa Lafayette and Laura Simiele of Etalon to introduce some exciting additions to their programs, the new research they have found and published about Roan Horses, and the launch of their July Promo!

    Roan horses are so uniquely beautiful with their eye-catching appearance and they have a long history in many different breeds of horses. Until now a lot of the research that was done previously about them was not published or we could not source it. That is where Christa and her team have stepped in to test and discover fascinating information about Roans and their genetic makeup.

    As a color genetics nerd, I learned so much from our conversation and it was so much fun talking with them again. I am so thankful that they chose me to have this important discussion that I believe will have a huge impact on the equine industry!

    On today's episode, I am talking with this week's guest all about not only equine law, but understanding that the more homework you do and the better you protect yourself the less confusion you will have in buying your next horse, running your horse business, or any of your dealings within the equine industry.

    Polly Hey of Hey & Hey Attorneys is an equine lawyer based in California, but is also licensed to practice in California and Tennessee and she is sharing her passion and knowledge for horses, the law, and the industry with me and you the listeners. We talk about several important topics that affect everyone in the horse world, trainers, owners, riders, and more. From sales and operating a business to current topics that might affect your transactions in the future.

    Polly and I had such an educational and fascinating discussion and I can't wait for you to hear it and I hope it helps you in starting to do your research for your next horse purchase or whatever business you are doing in the industry!

  • "Doing Things That Give You Butterflies!" and all things Equine Insurance with Cassidy Carpenter of Olive Insurance Agency
    Jun 12 2025

    On Today's episode, I am sharing a conversation I had with a lady who also is a horse crazy lady like me, but that is where are familiarity ends because although we share the same last name we are not related.

    Cassidy Carpenter is a Co-owner of Olive Insurance Agency in Lubbock, TX that she has been very successful in running with her business partner going on 10 years now. She has developed quite the career specializing in equine and commercial insurance, but in this episode we focused on the equine side of course. Through her years in business she has seen a wide variety of claims and really built a team of agents and clients around her that she loves and works 24/7 for!

    She is so passionate about advocating for her clients' needs, educating them so they understand everything about their policies, working closely with carriers about what is working and what needs to change and more. We talk about so many other topics in this episode from Equine disease outbreaks to her latest cooking obsession! I had so much fun talking with Cassidy and I learned so much more about Equine Insurance that I didn't know before our conversation!

    Equine insurance isn't the most glamorous topic in the industry, but as Cassidy says in the episode it is life insurance for your horse and as horse crazy people we want to make sure that the people taking care of helping us protect our horses are communicating with us clearly and honestly so we can continue to enjoy what we love to do!

    Enjoy my conversation with Cassidy!
