About this episode
I showed up to my first member-guest at Tampa Palms sick, under-prepared, and running on caffeine, ibuprofen, and grit—and still found a way to win our flight and taste the shootout. In this raw recap, I walk you through the chaos (slow play, no warm-up, rules hiccups), the lows (bunker disasters), and the highs (clutch sand save on the final hole). You'll hear exactly how I managed energy, self-talk, and strategy when my plan went to zero—and how those same mindset levers translate to your next round and your business. In this episode, you'll learn: How to manage expectations and energy when your prep falls apart The mindset shift that helped me play calm golf while feeling physically awful How to simplify focus and stay composed through delays, chaos, and pressure What poor communication (and one painful scoring mistake) taught me about teamwork The mental difference between avoiding a weakness and training through it Why gratitude is the fastest way to reset mid-round and regain confidence How emotional awareness off the course—like parenting guilt or stress—affects your game and composure on it Buckle up for an exciting, relatable ride navigating plenty of highs and lows during an epic Member-Guest weekend. Get your pencils ready and start listening. P.S. Curious to learn more about the results my clients are experiencing and what they say about working with me? Read more here.
