On this episode of The Hopeful Has-Been Podcast... I take a stroll down memory lane with my Grandma Rita. We break out our oldest barrel racing photo albums and talk about some of our best memories from our first few years entering the horse industry. We literally started out knowing nothing and got lucky with success.

When people ask me about the name of my podcast... It comes from knowing that I'll probably never get to compete on the level I did from 1995-2010. I'll always feel like a Has-Been, but I'm Hopeful to get the opportunity to run barrels again as a hobby rider just enjoying her horse. My goals are very different but I enjoy y'all being on this ride with me.

I plan to continue revisiting the past in future episodes and I have some fun guests in mind to bring on here.
