Rediscovering Power: Troy Horne's Mission to Inspire Those Over 40

In the latest episode of our podcast, we had the pleasure of speaking with Troy Horne, a three-time bestselling author who has sold over 287,000 books. Troy's mission is to empower individuals over 40 to rediscover their dreams and live fulfilling lives. With an impressive background that includes performances on NBC's Sing Off and Star Search, as well as a successful career as a musician, Troy brings a wealth of experience to the table.

Troy's journey into writing began with a desire to help his son navigate the competitive world of youth sports. Frustrated by the lack of resources available for young athletes, he decided to create a book that would resonate with kids and their parents alike. This endeavor not only fulfilled a personal goal but also sparked a passion for writing that has led to multiple successful publications.

During our conversation, Troy shared valuable insights on the importance of mental toughness, motivation, and the belief that age should not be a barrier to pursuing new passions. He emphasized that many people feel trapped by societal expectations that suggest they should settle into a routine after a certain age. However, Troy argues that the second half of life can be the most exciting and fulfilling time for personal growth and exploration.

One of the key takeaways from our discussion is the idea that if you have an idea or vision for something you want to achieve, it is meant for you to pursue. Troy encourages listeners to give themselves permission to chase their dreams, regardless of age. He believes that with the right mindset, anyone can overcome the mental barriers that hold them back.

Troy's book, "Mental Toughness for Young Athletes," is a must-read for parents looking to instill resilience and determination in their children. Additionally, his latest project, "Middle Management," offers resources for those over 40 looking to embark on new ventures and rediscover their purpose.

If you're feeling stuck or unsure about your path in life, this episode is a powerful reminder that it's never too late to start anew. Troy's journey is an inspiring testament to the idea that we can all live our dreams, no matter our age.
