Welcome back renowned professor of mental performance and sports psychology Dr. Rob Gilbert – along with some of the athletes and elite performers he’s influenced over the years. Hear some of some Dr. Gilbert’s most life-changing messages, and how you can apply his teachings to your life.

Dr. Rob Gilbert is a friend, mentor and the creator of the Success Hotline. References to his show are common among the athletes who are guests—and for good reason. Success Hotline is so popular among everyone from athletes to CEOs because it’s simple, concise messages manage to both inspire listeners and equip them with knowledge and insights into success, leadership, motivation, overcoming adversity and more.

For more than 20 years, today’s guest Donene Taylor has been a member of the Women’s Professional Rodeo Association. In 2016, at the age of 52, she took the Women’s Professional Rodeo Association World Champion Tie Down Calf Roper title and is a 4-time WPRA Mountain States Circuit Champion Tie Down Calf Roper.

But, in addition to her impressive list of accolades, Donene is also a sought-after speaker, and is the author of the book “Heart of a Champion Proven Strategies to Help You Discover the Heart of a Champion That Beats Within You” which outlines the mental performance techniques she used to achieve her goals–and explains how you can achieve yours as well.
