Fresh off a return to competition that has inspired many, Jonathon opens up in this candid interview about the physical and emotional toll of his recovery, the setbacks he never expected, and the incredible support system that helped him find his way back into the sport he loves.
“This isn’t just a story about a fall. It’s a story about rising,” said host Michael Cruciotti. “Jonathon’s journey is a reminder of what’s possible when talent, determination, and the strength of a community come together.”
A Unified Support Network
During the conversation, Jonathon highlights the invaluable role played by the Kevin Babington Foundation, which helped coordinate his care and recovery at Massachusetts Eye and Ear and the Schepens Institute, one of the top medical facilities in the world for complex neuro and spinal rehabilitation.
Crucial to that process was the tireless effort and deep network of Victoria McCullough, a long-time advocate for equine and human health in the sport.
“It was an honor to assist in Jonathon’s recovery,” said Victoria McCullough. “Through my years working closely with Massachusetts Eye and Ear and the Schepens Institute, I knew we had access to a world-class team that could give him a real path forward. It’s not just about helping one rider — it’s about building the kind of support system this sport desperately needs.”
