Taylor Munsell is the 2025 World Champion Professional Breakaway Roper and a five-time NFBR qualifier known for her grit, humility, and mental toughness. Built through years of highs, lows, and hard lessons, Taylor’s career reflects resilience earned the long way — through consistency, adaptability, and trust in her process.
In this episode, Taylor opens up about the challenges behind her championship season — missed runs, mounting pressure, constant adjustments, and the mental battle of staying confident when things aren’t going her way. She shares how blocking out outside noise, staying present, and choosing to fight instead of fold ultimately led her to ride into the 10th round calm, focused, and ready.
This episode goes beyond a gold buckle. It’s about growth in the valleys, learning through adversity, and showing up when it matters most. Taylor’s story is a powerful reminder that resilience is built long before the final run.
