See What Happens
When Perspective Shifts

Nicole H.

When I started my professional breakaway roping career, I struggled with nerves and mental obstacles. The pressure would make my stomach uneasy, and I often felt like I blacked out during runs. That’s when I turned to Breaking Ground, and Lydia changed everything for me.

 

She worked with me step by step, helping me face my fears and teaching me how to manage my emotions during high-stakes events. Lydia showed me how to replace negative thoughts with positive ones and provided unwavering support during major competitions. Her methods gave me confidence and control in moments when I needed it most.

 

What truly sets Lydia apart is her understanding of the emotional and physical challenges of the rodeo lifestyle. Competing up and down the road is exhausting, and Lydia knew how to support me not just mentally but holistically.

 

On top of that, she’s a phenomenal horsewoman. She has a deep understanding of horsemanship, and she seamlessly ties it into her mental training techniques. Her unique combination of skills makes her a standout coach, and I couldn’t have asked for a better partner in my journey.

 

Breaking Ground has been a game-changer for me, and I’d recommend Lydia to anyone looking to improve their mindset, confidence, and overall performance.

When I first started working with Lydia, I was out on the road struggling to win. Through perspective change and focus, we changed my roping in just a few weeks. Without changing anything but my mindset, I started stacking wins and building momentum, which led to a fun, productive season of rodeoing. Plugging into my process has turned me into the roper I’ve worked towards becoming for years, and each session we improve my mental strength and ability. I would recommend working with Lydia, no matter what skill level or discipline, because what she teaches applies to so much more than just rodeo.

Fall of 2024 I was getting ready for a big futurity. I was second-guessing myself and had zero confidence. Lydia was easy to talk to and very knowledgeable. She had a great balance of firsthand experience backed by science and studies. I still use what she taught me today and would highly recommend Breaking Ground for anyone wanting to help their mental game!
