Welcome to Breaking the Barrier - a podcast focused on western trailblazers who are breaking barriers both in and out of the arena. 

In the rodeo world, a broken barrier is not necessarily a good thing. It’s a 10 second penalty that generally means a competitor is out of the money. 

However, the barriers we are breaking here are of a different kind. Breaking the Barrier is a western lifestyle podcast for those who share in the western way of life. Join host Rebel Sjeklocha and get to know those who are honoring tradition, pushing the envelope, and breaking barriers for the next generation. 

This podcast is presented by the Rural Radio Network.
