Riley Mickelsen CJF

In this episode, Certified Journeyman Farrier Riley Mickelsen shares how growing up around horses in Idaho put him on a path that shifted from veterinary ambitions to farriery, thanks to his love of working with his hands. He talks about the five years he spent in Mexico, including missionary work, and how returning to the U.S. led him to train in Oklahoma, co-own a farrier school, and eventually build his own successful program in Idaho. Riley reflects on expanding into Mexico, the challenges of running a business across borders, the importance of work ethic in students today, and how social media has helped him reach farriers worldwide.

I hope you enjoy the conversation as much as I did.
