Show Notes

In this episode of the On The Rail Podcast, we converse with recurring guest Chase Parrish and his brother Cody Parrish.

They discuss their family background in the horse industry, Chase's transition from football to becoming a Marine and starting Stable Savers, and Cody's experiences running the family horse training business.

The brothers talk about lessons learned, the importance of integrity and patience, their experiences with the pony business they started as kids, and the qualities of a good client and horse trainer.

Additionally, they reflect on their family’s strong Christian values and how that has shaped their success and approach to life and business.
