What if I told you that your biggest riding struggle isn’t about skill or talent—it’s about what’s happening inside your mind? That hesitation before pushing for more speed in a run, the frustration over not getting that perfect stop, or the weird resistance you feel when things start going too well—it’s not just in your head. It’s a subconscious block, and it’s quietly running the show.

Most riders think that if they just work harder, practice more, or “get tougher,” they’ll break through their limits. But what if the real reason your progress feels like a rollercoaster has nothing to do with how much you ride—and everything to do with the hidden beliefs and fears shaping your decisions? In this episode, we’re going straight to the root of the issue so you can stop feeling stuck and start riding at the level you know you’re capable of.
