Episode 32- Kyle King- 50 is the new 40. Kyle proves there is no age limit when it comes to realizing your dreams!
Kyle King is no stranger to winning. He has amassed many Grand Prix victories over the years. But ongoing success at the 5* Level is something new to him. He is learning a whole new skill set to navigate and facing it head on as evidenced by his 2nd place finishing in the CPKC Rail Grand Prix at Spruce Meadows in September.
I was struck by Kyle’s vulnerability and courage in navigating the new “business” of showjumping at this point in his career.
He was also quick to point out that he has a team of people supporting him along this journey and what a gift it is to find a horse that is happy and able to go along for the ride .
I was also interested to hear that while he is proud of his American background he is pursuing Canadian citizenship in the hopes of representing the country he has embraced as his new home.
