15. Karen Peck/ All Around Cowgirl at 55 & 56/ Resiliency Made Possible Through Christ
Welcome back to Big Boss Mare with Brandy Von Holten. Today’s guest is one heck of a cowgirl named Karen Peck. Not only is she an established artist making large pieces from welding metal, but she has now jumped into a new medium using wool. Karen is a true cowgirl with having been a header and a heeler in team roping! I first met Karen and her family when they decided to try obstacle competitions. At the age of 55 and at 56, Karen won back-to-back titles as the All Around Cowgirl. One of the most joyous times in her life was the birth of her first granddaughter, Charley. However, Karen then went through the roughest of rough times within a short span of time with the death of her mother, a divorce, and her daughter in law being diagnosed and going through aggressive treatment for Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. Karen and her family are moving forward and credit their resiliency made possible only through their strong foundation in Christ.
