Description

You’re a high achiever. You’ve got confidence, success, and mental toughness in your career, your home or other sports—and yet golf is messing with your head. Why is that? In this episode, we’re talking about the mental game of golf for high performers who are used to crushing it in life, but feel totally thrown off on the course. If you’ve ever wondered why your work confidence doesn’t transfer to the first tee, or why perfectionism is killing your performance, you’re not alone. Golf challenges even the strongest mindsets. I’ll break down why your usual mental strategies backfire, how to stop overthinking every shot, and what to do when golf feels more frustrating than fun. If you want to build real golf confidence, stop judging yourself, and start enjoying the game again—this one’s for you.
