  • EP 81// The Essential Foundations Every Athlete Needs for Long-Term Success
    Jul 7 2026

    We're kicking off a brand-new Foundations Series on Ride Rope Rodeo! In the Confidence Series, we talked about what destroys confidence and how to rebuild it, but confidence alone is not enough to sustain you. Confidence can rise and fall with pressure, nerves, wins, losses, and circumstances. Foundations are what keep you grounded.

    In this episode, Chase and I introduce the foundational pillars that create lasting change in our mindset, performance, training, and horsemanship. Because lasting growth isn't built through quick fixes - it's built through discipline, consistency, and the things we commit to when no one is watching.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Why confidence alone can't sustain performance
    • The 9 foundational pillars of long-term growth
    • Building foundations create consistency inside and outside of the arena

  • EP 80// Is Your Self-Talk Destroying Your Rodeo Performance? How to Train Your Mindset Under Pressure
    Jun 30 2026

    What are you telling yourself before you ever ride in the arena?

    The truth is, the conversations happening inside your head are shaping your confidence, mindset, and performance more than you realize. As athletes, we spend countless hours training our horses, our bodies, and developing our skills - but very few of us intentionally train our minds.

    In this episode of Ride Rope Rodeo, we're diving into self-talk, mindset, and the stories athletes rehearse every day.

    Key takeaways:

    • How self-talk influences confidence and performance
    • Why your mindset affects the way you compete under pressure
    • Mental training strategies to recognize and change thought patterns
    • How faith and truth help athletes compete with confidence and freedom

    Train your horse. Train your body. And don't forget to train your mind.
