• EP 87// Why Talent Isn't Enough: How Preparation Separates Great Rodeo Athletes (with Chase Johnston)
    Aug 18 2026

    Talent is a gift. But at some point, talent isn’t going to be enough.

    As you move forward in rodeo, the competition gets tougher. Everybody can rope. Everybody can ride. Everybody has talent. So what starts to separate the good athletes from the great ones? A whole lot of it comes down to preparation.

    In this episode, Chase and I sit down and talk about what real preparation looks like—from your training, consistency and horsemanship to studying your craft, paying attention to the smallest details and developing a mindset that can handle pressure when it’s time to compete.

    Because better performance doesn’t just happen when the pressure is on. It’s built in the practice pen, at the barn, in the little decisions nobody sees and in the work you’re willing to keep doing over and over again.

    If you want to compete at the next level, don’t just rely on your talent. Learn to prepare for where you want to go.

  • EP 86 // Are You Stuck in "Why Me?" | How to Build Resilience in the Rodeo Arena (with Kacey Kobza)
    Aug 11 2026

    What happens outside the arena matters.

    In this episode of Ride Rope Rodeo, I sit down with my lifelong friend and breakaway roper, Kacey Kobza, to talk about resilience, adversity, and the mindset it takes to keep moving forward in rodeo and in life.

    We talk about how the discipline and work ethic we build outside the arena directly impact what happens inside it, why you have to learn to take care of the controllables, and how to move forward after a bad run, setback, or tough season.

    Kacey also shares her powerful story of battling Hodgkin's lymphoma at a pivotal time in her rodeo career and what that experience taught her about fighting, faith, and learning to pivot when life doesn't go according to plan.

    If you're a rodeo athlete, competitor, parent, or coach, this conversation will challenge you to stop dwelling, stop comparing, and start building the resilience you need for whatever comes next.

    The work outside the arena is what prepares you for what happens inside it.

    Aug 4 2026

    Success in rodeo - and in life - is never enough if your identity is built on performance alone.

    In this episode of Ride Rope Rodeo, I sit down with professional bronc riders Waitley and Traven Sharon for an honest conversation about faith, competition, confidence, and what it truly means to build your identity in Christ instead of your results in the arena.

    Whether you're battling a losing streak, struggling with confidence, or chasing the next buckle believing it will finally satisfy you, this conversation is a reminder that lasting peace, true confidence, and purpose aren't found in winning - they're found in Jesus.

    If you're a rodeo athlete, competitor, coach, or anyone trying to balance faith with high performance, this episode is for you.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Why your identity should never depend on wins, losses, or performance.
    • How faith creates confidence and resilience during difficult seasons.
    • Practical ways to stay mentally strong when rodeo isn't going your way.
    • How daily habits, discipline, and Scripture build an unshakable foundation.
    • Why true fulfillment will never come from buckles, paychecks, or success alone.

  • 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.
