Coach
The choice to step away from competitive golf is a decision that has shaped me as a coach. For years, I committed time and effort to something that didn’t “come through” as I hoped it would. Little did I know, the sport taught me everything about work ethic and mindset. It’s not always about committing to the D1 school or winning the state championship, more often than not, it’s about continuing to show up when you feel tired and burnt out. It’s about building relationships on the course and being where your feet are. The sport taught me it really is about hanging tough and being able to bounce back when you don’t always get “a lucky bounce”.
