#239 - Rusty Wright & Haley Sage | More Than a Gold Buckle
5x NFR bronc rider Rusty Wright and breakaway roper Haley Sage were not lying when they said they would tell it all. This episode is downright real, raw, emotional, and inspiring as we sit down during a summer stop in Fallon, Nevada.
But this one’s not about the arena stats—it’s about the people behind the buckles.
Rusty opens up about the valleys he's walked through—the loss, the drinking, the divorce, the self-doubt—and what it really took to climb out. He shares how the Cowboy Channel documentary Hell and Back came to be, why he almost didn’t do it, and the healing that came from letting the world see behind the curtain.
Haley brings her own fire, too. She talks about rebuilding her life brick by brick, loving Rusty for who he is—not what he’s won—and how their relationship taught her to see the good, even in the challenges. Together, they talk about real friendship, mental health in rodeo, and learning to love yourself—before the gold buckle.
This episode is a masterclass in mindset, love, and letting go of performance-based worth. It’s not just for rodeo fans—it’s for anyone trying to get back in the saddle when life knocks you flat.
