We're delighted to share a casual chat with Sylvain Allard, Desert Sky Arabians, Scottsdale, AZ, who shares about buying his first at a charity auction supporting the American Heart Association.



What started as a simple invitation from Lee Courtney to friends, Robin Andrews and Sylvain Allard, to attend a charity event, has led to multiple horses and multiple national wins in a short about of time.



Sylvain chats about the industry, building relationships, energy to learn, as well as judging, the importance of a fair playing field, and healthy competitions. It's so important.



Sylvain concluded by sharing three things the industry needs, as a whole, to support robust growth. As a small breeder, Sylvain and Robin breed 1-3 babies each year so far, as he believes... it helps build and support the entire industry.



Sylvain is humble and, shares heartwarming insights too – it's worth your time to listen, maybe while you're driving or doing the dishes!

Join with us as Duane Esser chats with Kathi Bogucki, daughter of renowned artist, Edwin Bogucki. Kathi's become a renown artist in her own right and, she shares stories growing up with her father, and watching him to learn.

Kathi shares about his innate attraction to Arabian horses, and how he'd craft the sculptures, little bit by little bit, ever so carefully designed. Trial and error was a substantial and energetic learning curve for the Boguckis, as they crafted their vision.

It's a compelling story of passion, creativity, and love for the Arabian horse, now in its next generation. The term 'pay if forward' comes to mind.
