Episode 218 - Austin Broderson
from Cowboy Shit Hosted by Everything Cowboy Inc.
Most people know Austin Broderson because of the bareback riding accident that changed his life forever. But this conversation isn't about the wreck; it's about everything that came after. Growing up in Turin, Alberta, Austin was raised in a multi-generational rodeo family and was chasing his dream of competing professionally before his life took an unexpected turn in 2024. Instead of allowing adversity to define him, he's focused on rebuilding, adapting, and continuing to live the cowboy lifestyle he loves. In this episode, we dive into the mental side of recovery, learning to adapt when life doesn't go as planned, and redefining what success looks like. Austin shares how he's navigated frustration, found purpose in the small victories, leaned on family and community, and continues to hunt, rope, ride horses, and embrace the western way of life while inspiring thousands through his journey. Whether you're a rodeo fan, an athlete, or simply someone facing a challenge of your own, Austin's perspective is a powerful reminder that resilience isn't about pretending everything is okay, it's about finding a way to keep moving forward. We hope you enjoy the episode! Trigger warning: This episode talks about struggling with mental health and suicidal thoughts. Please watch with caution Shop all things cowboyshit.ca
