## Resource

Katie Burr Solek didn’t just grow up around Arabian horses, she grew into them , one lesson, one ride, one experience at a time. In this episode, Katie shares how a childhood introduction to Arabian horses quickly turned into a lifelong pursuit. From early riding days in Temecula to her formative years under Gene LaCroix, she developed a foundation rooted in horsemanship, discipline, and feel. That foundation still shapes everything she does today. Now, Katie is doing something many aspire to but few fully achieve, breeding, raising, training, and showing her own horses. She talks openly about the transition from working with top trainers to stepping out on her own, and the challenges and rewards that come with it. We also explore the creation of Bit-Tex, a product born out of necessity that has grown into a widely used solution focused on improving comfort, communication, and horse welfare. This conversation is about progression, trust in your instincts, and building something meaningful over time… one horse at a time.
