Welcome to another episode of the Women Going Big podcast! This week, we dive deep into the inspiring journey of Brandy Von Holten—martial artist, entrepreneur, and owner of Von Holten Ranch. Brandy was recommended by previous guest Jen Fizer, and let’s just say, her story is nothing short of extraordinary. From a tumultuous childhood to becoming an international fighter and now owning a flourishing equine trail riding facility, Brandy’s grit and determination shine through.
In this episode, Brandi shares what moved her to Missouri initially—training for the Olympics as a heavyweight fighter. Despite the setbacks, Brandi refused to take no for an answer and went on to embrace teaching, overcoming personal struggles, and building a successful business with her husband. Brandi talks about the mental and physical preparation required for both martial arts and entrepreneurship, how she deals with social media negativity, and why focusing on the bottom of the Christmas tree can be more rewarding. Tune in to uncover more about her journey, the Women’s Chicks in the Sticks event, and her vision for nationwide equine competitions.
