In this episode of NFR Extra, we sit down with rodeo wife, entrepreneur, and creative spirit Hailey Holman. From growing up in Hawaii to heading to Cal Poly on a rodeo scholarship, Hailey shares the journey that led her to meeting her husband, Lefty Holman—and how a challenging rookie-year injury ultimately brought them closer together.

She opens up about navigating life during COVID, long-distance between Hawaii and the rodeo road, and how their relationship grew into a true partnership—balancing rodeo, business ventures, and now parenthood. From building rental properties in Hawaii and California to launching Buckem Co., Hailey gives a behind-the-scenes look at creating a life rooted in passion and purpose.

Hailey also shares the joy (and reality) of raising their daughter Viva, whose big personality is already stealing the show, along with how their priorities are shifting toward more time at home. Plus, she dives into her love for chain stitching—bringing new life to old pieces through a hands-on craft that reflects her appreciation for authenticity and storytelling.

This episode is a heartfelt conversation about love, growth, creativity, and choosing to live with gratitude and passion every step of the way.
