    Perspective Is a Verb: The Philosophy That Changed Me (Early Access For Subscribers Only)

    What if the biggest thing holding you back isn’t your circumstances—but the story you keep telling yourself? In a unique role reversal, The Converse Cowboy steps into the guest seat, interviewed my none other that the Louis Vuitton Vaquero himself, to unpack the ideas behind his new book, "Perspective Is a Verb". What starts as a conversation about writing a book quickly becomes a deeper exploration of mindset, resilience, gratitude, manifestation, and the power of intentional thinking. Mike shares the personal experiences that shaped his philosophy—from navigating divorce and rebuilding his identity to studying psychology, performance, and the habits that create a meaningful life. Along the way, he reveals the daily practices that transformed his perspective, why gratitude is more powerful than most people realize, and how the thoughts you repeat today quietly shape the life you experience tomorrow. This episode is filled with practical wisdom, thought-provoking stories, lessons learned and earned secrets on overcoming adversity, cultivating awareness, and taking ownership of your future. If you've ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or uncertain about your next step, this conversation might change the way you think about the challenges in front of you—and the opportunities hidden inside them. This episode is brought to you by Kimes Ranch, Kerry Kelley Bits and Spurs, and Bluebonnet Feeds. Enjoy the show!

    Aaron Watson: Why He Rejected Nashville at 22 - "I'd Rather Be Free Than Famous" | (Free Version)

    Aaron Watson turned down Nashville at 22 — and spent the next 25 years proving he was right. In this deeply honest conversation, Aaron opens up about building one of country music's most successful independent careers without compromising his identity, his songwriting, or his family. He shares the real cost of chasing music for a living, surviving two vocal cord surgeries that nearly ended his career, and why becoming a father changed the way he measures success forever. This episode goes far beyond country music. It's about resilience, reinvention, creative obsession, faith, and learning what actually matters after decades in the spotlight. Aaron talks candidly about grief, losing a daughter, turning down opportunities most artists would kill for, and the dangerous freedom that comes when you stop caring about fame. We also dive into songwriting, social media, legacy, independent artistry, and the mindset that's fueling what he believes may become the best chapter of his career.

    What Elite Cutters See That Everyone Else Misses | NCHA Super Stakes Recap (Early Access For Subscribers Only)

    The NCHA Super Stakes delivered unforgettable runs, breakout performances, and plenty of chaos inside the cowbox — I am joined by my good pal, 'The Louis Vuitton Vaquero' aka NCHA Hall of Famer, Jesse Lennox to break it all down. From Kenny Platt’s historic dominance in the 5/6 Open to Michael Cooper’s clutch performances under pressure, this episode dives deep into the horses, the strategy, and the personalities shaping the future of cutting. Jesse gives a behind-the-scenes look at what really happens in the cowbox, how elite trainers read cattle, and why the next generation of riders like Cade Shepard, Colt Moore, Cooper Clark, and Ryan Rapp are changing the game. They also unpack the rise of Metallic Rey Mink offspring, the evolution of modern horse training, and the subtle details—like "watching a cow’s nostril" — that separate great horsemen from everyone else. Along the way, things go completely off the rails with harmonica stories, busking on the Granbury square, Backstreet Boys encounters, celebrity cuttings, and the ongoing rise of the legendary band “Low Expectations.” This episode is equal parts cutting horse masterclass and locker room comedy—and one of the most entertaining recaps yet. Enjoy the show! This episode is brought to you by Kerry Kelley Bits and Spurs, Kimes Ranch and Bluebonnet Feeds.

    Small Habits That Separate Winners From Everyone Else (From the NFL to Ranch Life) with Davon Godchaux (Free Version)

    In this episode of The Converse Cowboy, NFL veteran Davon Godchaux breaks down the uncomfortable truth behind success, discipline, and identity — after 10 years in a league where most careers barely last three.   "You've got athletes… and then you've got professional athletes."    From LSU to the NFL, Davon shares the small, unglamorous habits that define longevity — the things no one sees, but everyone feels on game day. But this isn't just about football. It's about what happens when the dream becomes reality… and still isn't enough.   We talk about: • Why the little things are everything (and why most people avoid them) • The danger of tying your identity to what you do • What success really looks like beyond money and fame • How to handle adversity in a world that teaches you to quit   "Money comes and goes… but relationships last forever."    Because when the game ends — for all of us — what's left is who you became along the way.   This episode is brought to you by Kimes Ranch, Bluebonnet Feeds and Kerry Kelley Bits and Spurs.    Enjoy the show!

    I Borrowed a Horse… and Found My Purpose, Scott Slusher | (Free Version)

    Most people don't accidentally find their calling. Scott Slusher did. With no formal training, he borrowed a horse, a truck, and a saddle—and stepped into a world that would eventually define his life's work. In this episode, we go beyond photography into purpose, identity, and the tension between making money and making a life. Scott shares why chasing fulfillment looks nothing like chasing success—and why uncertainty might be the clearest sign you're on the right path. If you've ever questioned where you're headed, this conversation will stay with you. This episode is brought to you by Kimes Ranch, Bluebonnet Feeds and Kerry Kelley Bits and Spurs.
