In this episode, JJ sits down with long-time friends Kate and Martin Kuhn, the husband-and-wife team behind StarWest in New Berlin, Illinois. Together, they do it all: from selecting and purchasing top-quality US-bred foals to developing them all the way to Grand Prix, all while balancing teaching, mentoring, and raising a family.

They share how they choose the young horses they invest in, what they look for in trainers and coaches, and how their experiences coming up through a system, including the Young Rider program, continues to shape their philosophy and program today.
