These women not only manage and build his business, they manage and build their own as well. This podcast is about exploring not only what these women bring to complex relationships, but how they continue to be strong, resilient and independent while not losing themselves or being swallowed by their husbands careers.

The Trainer's Wife ~ Kim Lyon ~ Episode, 38
<p>On this episode of The Trainer’s Wife, I’m sitting down with Kim Lyon. Professionally, Kim is a commercial real estate executive specializing in office and industrial properties, where she has built a successful career rooted in relationships, business development, and strategic leadership.</p><p>In the western industry, Kim is married to AQHA, NRHA & NSBA professional horseman Bud Lyon, whose program has become one of the most recognizable names in ranch riding. Bud has earned more than $500,000 in NSBA earnings while setting records and earning Horse of the Year honors along the way.</p><p>But as you'll hear in this conversation, Kim’s story extends far beyond being married to a successful trainer.</p><p>We talk about growing up outside the traditional horse world, walking on to the Texas A&M Equestrian Team with little idea how much that single decision would change the course of her life, building confidence through challenge, learning business and sales from the ground up, and creating a life with intention along the way.</p><p>This conversation is thoughtful, honest, funny in all the best ways, and full of insight about relationships, ambition, mentorship, and the people who shape us throughout our lives.</p><p>Please welcome Kim Lyon.</p><p>SHOW NOTES:</p><p><a href="https://budlyonperformancehorses.com/pages/team-blph" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Bud Lyon Performance Horses</a></p><p><a href="https://www.nmrk.com/people/kim-lyon" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Newmark - Kim Lyon</a></p><p>Hey everyone, and welcome to Season Two of The Trainer’s Wife.</p><p>If you’ve been here for a while, thank you for walking this journey with me — and if you’re new, I’m so glad you found us.</p><p>This is where I sit down with the wives of professional horse trainers in the Western equine industry to share their stories — not just in the arena, but in life.</p><p>We talk about how they show up for their families, their careers, their communities, and for other women.</p><p>This podcast is a place to celebrate strong, brave, beautiful women whose roots run deep — and whose impact reaches far beyond the show pen.</p><p>I’m so glad you’re here.</p>

The Trainer's Wife ~ Marilyn Peters ~ Episode, 37
<p>Today’s conversation is one I will treasure for a very long time.</p><p>This week, I had the privilege of sitting down with Marilyn Peters — horsewoman, trainer’s wife, NRCHA and AQHA judge, mother, horse trainer, and truly one of my personal heroes.</p><p>At 76 years young, Marilyn is still riding horses, breeding mares, and continuing the life she and her husband Pete built together over decades in the horse industry here in Oklahoma.</p><p>But this conversation became so much more than horse training.</p><p>We talked about the early days of AQHA and cow horse culture… how west coast influence eventually met Oklahoma and Texas… life on a historic Oklahoma homestead now being surrounded by a rapidly growing city… and the kinds of relationships that become much bigger than business and go on to shape generations within our western horse industry, both here and abroad.</p><p>We also spent time talking about their friendship with legendary western artist Orren Mixer — a friendship that quite literally left its mark on their home and on their lives.</p><p>As I sat surrounded by original Mixer artwork and stories from a generation that helped shape this industry, I kept thinking: this is why these conversations matter. To preserve the history, the people, and the heritage of the western equine industry before those stories are gone.</p><p>Marilyn carries the kind of wisdom that only comes from a lifetime of showing up, working hard, loving horses, loving family, and staying rooted through changing times.</p><p>It is my honor to share her story.</p><p>SHOW NOTES:</p><p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/barjpqh" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">BAR JP Quarter Horses</a></p><p>Episode Sponsors:</p><p><a href="https://shortyshattery.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Shorty's Caboy Hattery</a></p><p><a href="https://www.thejenniferjournals.com/finding-center-retreats/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Finding Center Retreats</a></p><p><a href="https://www.thejenniferjournals.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/Finding-Center-Retreat-Package.pdf" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Finding Center Brochure PDF</a></p><p><a href="https://www.thejenniferjournals.com/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">The Jennifer Journals</a></p><p>Hey everyone, and welcome to Season Two of The Trainer’s Wife.</p><p>If you’ve been here for a while, thank you for walking this journey with me — and if you’re new, I’m so glad you found us.</p><p>This is where I sit down with the wives of professional horse trainers in the Western equine industry to share their stories — not just in the arena, but in life.</p><p>We talk about how they show up for their families, their careers, their communities, and for other women.</p><p>This podcast is a place to celebrate strong, brave, beautiful women whose roots run deep — and whose impact reaches far beyond the show pen.</p><p>I’m so glad you’re here.</p>
