My Resource Library
My Resource Library is a free collection of mindset, personal growth, and riding resources that have changed the way I think, ride, and coach. This free library is here to support curious, growth-minded riders who want to keep learning and evolving.
You don’t need to consume everything here. Choose one resource that feels relevant to where you are right now and start there.
This page will continue to grow over time as I discover and revisit resources I trust and love.
