Horses Hope & Hustle

Dave Shumpert used to run cattle and horses from Colorado to the Canadian border — until a broken irrigation pipe, a bad mood, and one honest question to God changed the entire direction of his life. Today he leads X2D Ranch Ministries out of Ault, Colorado, feeding families in crisis through a herd God built and meeting horse people — literally — on both sides of the cattle guard. This week on Horses Hope & Hustle, Dave gets real about identity, burnout, and what happens when the thing you built becomes the thing you worship. We get into a genuine conversation on leading people to God simply by being people of God — no polish, no script, just real talk about faith, ranching, and the ripple effect of showing up for people. 🔗 Full episode + directory: horseshopeandhustle.com 📍 Learn more about X2D Ranch Ministries: https://x2dranchministries.com/ List Your Business Free--> https://horseshopeandhustle.com/directory/ Support the show Whether you found us by accident or on purpose (bonus points if you did), we're glad you're here.

Six words from a past guest just rearranged my whole brain, and I couldn't NOT make an episode about it. Charlotte Volt said something so simple during our anniversary recap that I haven't stopped thinking about since: "That is the cost of a wonderful life." In this solo episode, I'm unpacking what that means — for business, for relationships, for the messy, expensive, worth-it life you're building. I get real about my own darkest season, the years I spent rebuilding alone, and how every hard thing I paid for back then paid the price for the life I have now. If you're in a season that feels like it's costing you everything, this one's for you. You might be one "no" away from the wonderful life you're working toward. Stay true, stay tough, and keep hustling.

One year ago, Charlotte Vault of Colorado Horse Sale was Crystal's very first podcast guest. A lot has changed since then — for both of them. In this one-year recap, Crystal and Charlotte get real about the completely different directions their businesses took over the last twelve months. Charlotte doubled down, adding vet requirements and radiograph sessions to elevate Colorado Horse Sale into a more selective, reputable sale — even when it meant fewer consignments and a serious "slice of humble pie." Crystal went the opposite way, selling her company, Big Sky Horse Sales, to go all-in on Horses Hope & Hustle. They talk through burnout (including Charlotte's naturopath visit and the physical toll of chronic stress), how to take feedback without taking it personally, why quality over quantity is worth the growing pains, and why collaboration — not competition — has been the real secret to both of their businesses surviving the hard years. This one is big sister business advice through and through: honest, unfiltered, and for anyone building something that isn't going the way they expected. In this episode: Why Charlotte added vet exams and video requirements to every horse at Colorado Horse Sale The moment Crystal knew it was time to sell Big Sky Horse Sales How both women handled burnout and physical stress from running high-pressure businesses Why being selective in business is harder than it sounds — and worth it The power of collaboration over competition in the horse industry What they'd tell their younger selves about identity, stress, and success Follow Colorado Horse Sale: ColoradoHorseSale.com | @ColoradoHorseSale Follow Horses Hope & Hustle: horseshopeandhustle.com | @horseshopeandhustle List Your Business Free--> https://horseshopeandhustle.com/directory/ Support the show Whether you found us by accident or on purpose (bonus points if you did), we're glad you're here.

There's no shortcut to building a horse training business that lasts — and Trevor and Kaylie Haught of Haught Horses and Livestock in Scottsdale, Arizona are proof of it. In this episode, Trevor and Kaylie get real about the decade it actually took to get here: quitting a steady paycheck to ride colts for twelve bucks a ride, living in a fifth wheel with no shade in 120-degree heat, and learning the hard way that talent alone doesn't build a full barn — relationships do. We talk about the growing pains nobody warns you about (employees, getting paid, running the business side of a horse business), the moment a near-disaster at a sale in Big Sky turned into one of their most important client relationships, and why they train every horse for who he actually is instead of who they wish he was. If you've ever wondered whether doing the right thing consistently actually pays off — even when it feels painfully slow — this conversation is your answer. In this episode: Why customer service, not talent, has carried their whole program The growing pains of hiring, getting paid, and running a horse business The Big Sky sale story that changed everything Training the horse in front of you instead of the one you wish you had Their advice for anyone starting out: keep learning, keep showing up Follow Trevor and Kaylie at Haught Horses and Livestock on Instagram and Facebook List Your Business Free--> https://horseshopeandhustle.com/directory/ Support the show Whether you found us by accident or on purpose (bonus points if you did), we're glad you're here.

On this episode of Horses, Hope & Hustle, host Crystal Show sits down with Mariah and Johnny Jerviss of Legacy Horse Company — a husband-and-wife team who've built one of the most recognizable young-horse programs in the industry. Mariah and Johnny share how their love story started at a birthday party in California, how "Legacy" became more than just a business name, and the moment they packed up everything they owned — including a one-year-old son — and moved to Wyoming with nothing but a leap of faith and a maxed-out credit card to buy their first horses. They open up about the early struggles of building a brand from scratch, learning to market horses honestly instead of with "flourish," why they shifted their focus to yearlings and two-year-olds, and how simplifying their feed program changed their horses' health for good. Mariah and Johnny also get real about what it's actually like running a business — and raising a family — with your spouse: the fights, the growth, and why respect and quick apologies matter more than winning the argument. Whether you're dreaming of starting your own horse business, married to your business partner, or just need a reminder that the struggle is part of the story — this episode is packed with hard-earned wisdom from two people who bet everything on their dream and made it work. In this episode: How Mariah and Johnny met and built Legacy Horse Company from the ground up Why they shifted from aged horses to a colt-heavy program The credit-card gamble that jump-started their business in Wyoming Lessons on marketing horses honestly (and why over-embellishing backfires) Running a business and marriage together — the real, unfiltered version Their move to Dewey, Arizona and what's next for Legacy Horse Company Connect with Legacy Horse Company: Facebook: Legacy Horse Company Instagram: @legacyhorsecompany List Your Business Free--> https://horseshopeandhustle.com/directory/ Support the show Whether you found us by accident or on purpose (bonus points if you did), we're glad you're here.

In this episode of Horses, Hope & Hustle , we sit down with Olivia Allen — wife, mom, and reining horse trainer out of Oklahoma — for one of the most honest conversations we've had on the podcast. Olivia opens up about growing up without the means to afford nice horses, working her way up cleaning stalls and riding other people's colts, and eventually building her own reining horse program from literally a gutted chicken coop. But behind the hustle was a private battle with an eating disorder that started in high school and spiraled during a season of isolation, anxiety, and a global pandemic — a battle she candidly shares brought her to her lowest point. Olivia shares how a simple question to her now-husband on a drive home from church — "Do you think I'm good?" — led to her baptism that same night, and how surrendering her life to the Lord became the turning point that carried her out of years of struggle. She's now been free from her eating disorder for nearly five years, and shares openly about rebuilding her faith, her marriage, and a training program that's grown from a backyard round pen to a full-scale facility — all while raising her daughter alongside her husband in the barn. This episode is a raw, faith-filled reminder that no one is too far gone, no one is alone, and God can take a shell of a person and do more than she ever imagined. Content note: This episode includes an open discussion of disordered eating and suicidal thoughts. If you or someone you know is struggling, the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline is available by call or text, anytime.

Dusty Whitford has built a cutting horse training program, a streaming platform, and now an independent television series — all without a dollar of corporate or Hollywood money. In this episode of Horses, Hope & Hustle, Dusty shares how he went from the Army National Guard to apprenticing under hall-of-fame cutting horse trainers, then built Horse Pro TV into a streaming app rivaling Netflix in scale, funded almost entirely by everyday horse people. We dig into the real story behind Tin Top, his new PG-13 Western drama series shot entirely with real horse people (no actors), why he turned down big-money investors in favor of $1,000 checks from ranchers, and the marketing philosophy that's grown Tin Top's following by tens of thousands in a single month with zero ad budget. Dusty also opens up about bullying in the horse industry, why chasing broad appeal kills your business, and the mindset shift that let him stop caring what people think — including his now-famous line: "By trying to please everyone, you attract no one."

Jester Sells for $400,000: Inside Morgan's Mountain Performance Horses' Record Sale at Premier's Big Sky Horse Sale How does a family-raised colt named Jester become the reserve high seller — selling for a record-breaking $400,000 — at Premier's Big Sky Horse Sale? On this episode of Horses, Hope & Hustle, I sit down with Lisa Morgan, BJ Morgan, and Kelsey Friedly of Morgan's Mountain Performance Horses (MMPH) to break down exactly how it happened. For over 30 years, this Montana horse breeding and training program has focused on raising working ranch horses — real using horses with mountain experience, not arena-bred show horses. Jester, a half-draft colt out of a Percheron bloodline, spent his early years packing salt, moving cattle, and working 25,000 acres of grazing land before ever setting foot in a sale ring. We talk through the full journey to the Big Sky Premier Horse Sale: the professional photography and video marketing strategy that turned Jester's story into a must-follow, the registry and DNA testing scramble before the deadline, and what it actually felt like in the bleachers as the bidding blew past every number they'd imagined. As Lisa put it, "We didn't really think we had a story. We were just living it." This episode covers: How Morgan's Mountain Performance Horses built a 30-year horse breeding program from a single Percheron stud What it takes to qualify for a premier performance horse sale (registries, scoring rubrics, professional video) The marketing strategy behind Jester's record-setting sale price The emotional, faith-filled moments behind the scenes at the sale Advice for anyone consigning a horse to a major sale for the first time Whether you're a horse breeder, a ranch horse enthusiast, or just love a good underdog story, this conversation about Jester's $400K sale at Big Sky is one you don't want to miss.

Some people wait for opportunities. Others create them. This week on Horses, Hope & Hustle , host Crystal Show sits down with horse trainer Manda McCarthy , whose journey has taken her from racing Thoroughbreds in Australia to training Warmbloods, and now building a career in the cow horse and cutting horse industry . What makes Manda's story so inspiring isn't just the variety of horses she's trained — it's her mindset. Every time she set her sights on a new goal, she was willing to start from the bottom, put her nose to the grindstone, and do whatever it took to learn. She believes that becoming a better horseman starts with becoming a better student, and she's never stopped chasing knowledge that helps both her and her horses improve. This conversation is about embracing the uncomfortable, trusting the process, and having the courage to reinvent yourself in pursuit of the life you want. Whether you're chasing a dream in the equine industry or simply trying to become better than you were yesterday, Manda's story is proof that hard work, humility, and a willingness to learn can take you farther than you ever imagined. Topics covered : horse training, cutting horses, cow horses, Thoroughbred racing, Warmblood training, horsemanship, mindset, entrepreneurship in the horse industry, personal growth.

In this episode of Horses, Hope & Hustle, we sit down with Bugg Beeler — horse trainer, former pro rodeo competitor, and founder of Rodeo Road Essentials, an all-natural topical company built from the ground up. We dive into Bugg's journey from the arena to the entrepreneurial world — her early days in horse training, her time competing on the pro rodeo circuit, and the moment that sparked the creation of Rodeo Road Essentials. But this conversation goes far beyond business. We get real about how Bugg turned the lowest point of her life into a launching pad for purpose. She opens up about choosing to answer God's calling, using her pain to do good, and finding the courage to become her best self — not just for her, but for everyone she could help along the way. What starts as a story of entrepreneurship turns into something so much bigger: a genuine, heartfelt message about faith, resilience, and purpose that so many of us need to hear right now.

On this episode of Horses, Hope & Hustle, Crystal sits down with Ben Collins, founder of Hero Rodeo, to talk about what happens when a simple idea turns into a product, a business, and a whole lot of lessons learned the hard way. What started as a conversation on the drive home from a roping eventually became a journey into product development, manufacturing, sales, and entrepreneurship. Ben shares the reality of taking an idea from concept to creation, navigating mistakes, figuring things out as he went, and learning firsthand what it takes to build something from the ground up. This episode is equal parts educational and entertaining. From product invention to business growth, Ben doesn't hold back on the stories—including the fact that his very first sale was to a hitchhiker. Seriously. Packed with laughs, honest lessons, and plenty of entrepreneurial grit, this conversation is for anyone who's ever had an idea and wondered, "Could I actually make this happen?"
