Duncan Taylor grew up living and working with his brothers on a farm in Kentucky with their father and farm manager, Joe. In 1976, aged just 19, he cofounded a small broodmare horse boarding farm on a small piece of leased land. Over the next few decades, this small boarding operation would grow into Taylor Made Farm, spanning 1600 acres in the heart of Kentucky Horse Country. It has foaled and raised some of the horse racing's biggest stars. Taylor Made isn't just a horse farm — it's the largest Thoroughbred sales operation in North America and home to one of the world's most successful stallions, and it's been built and run by the same family for almost 50 years, starting with literally two pickup trucks and $10,000.


In this episode, Duncan takes us inside Taylor Made Farm, and we discuss how such a successful business was born from small beginnings. We unpack fascinating lessons in entreprenuership, getting started, being a good boss, and how continued success requires always looking for a better way.
