He grew up eating squirrel and rabbit, didn't taste his first steak until he was 22, and was once told that betting his future on horses was the dumbest thing he'd ever do. He went anyway. Today, Michael Cooper is an NCHA Hall of Famer, with more than six and a half million in lifetime earnings, and he's become one of the most respected cutting horse trainers in the industry.
But this conversation is about far more than the wins. It's about the mindset, the mentors, and the hard-earned principles that built a champion, a businessman, and a family man who never forgot where he came from.
He explains: *Why your own adrenaline is the real reason you're losing, and how to slow it down when it matters most *The single piece of advice that turned horse winnings into lasting wealth *Why getting comfortable is the secret to winning at the highest level *The brutal honesty with yourself that separates champions from everyone else *What true success actually looks like once the money stops mattering
