The One Thing This Rider Does (That Most Won’t) 🤯

New Podcast Alert!

You’ve done the work. You’ve put in the hours. You know you’re capable of nailing your next ride.

So why is it that when you step into the arena, doubt creeps in, your mind starts racing, and suddenly, you feel like a different rider?

If that sounds familiar, you’re going to LOVE today’s episode of the Resilient Reiner Podcast because I’m sitting down with the incredible Bella Sobral, a young equestrian who has completely mastered the mental side of competition—and she’s sharing exactly how she does it.

And here’s the part that shocked me…

🚨 She doesn’t touch her phone for HOURS before she competes. 🚨

No scrolling. No texting. No distractions.

Why? Because she knows that the mental state you bring into the arena starts long before you step into the show pen.

Instead of letting her brain get overstimulated by notifications, random messages, and social media comparison, she locks in, visualizes her run, and mentally steps into her role as a competitor. And guess what? It works.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

✅ Why Bella’s no-phone rule is a game-changer for staying focused
✅ How she uses visualization to "pre-ride" every show run before it happens
✅ The exact mindset shifts that separate high-level riders from the rest
✅ Her warm-up routine that transforms show-day nerves into confidence
