Not long ago
I wrote about a friend from my college rodeo days, Bruce Hunt, who recently
retired after a long career as a rodeo coach at West Hills College. One of his
success stories as a coach was his daughter Nora, whose accomplishments in high
school, college, and professional rodeo are immense.
While she
still ropes, Nora Hunt-Lee is married, raising two kids, and working as a
clinical psychologist, therapist, and family counselor. Part of her practice is
Sports Psychology, with an emphasis on helping rodeo athletes. You can read all
about Nora—her accomplishments, her practice, and her philosophy of achievement—in
the latest issue of Ranch & Reata
magazine (www.ranchandreata.com).
It’s an
interesting article, and it was a pleasure to work with Nora to put it
together. And while this is a simplistic summary, it turns out that success in
rodeo—like in a lot of life—is all in your head. I wish she had been around
when I was crawling down into the chute….
