🎙️Podcast Description

In this powerful episode of The Grounded Leader, I sit down with performance coach and Golf Digest Top 50 Teacher, Will Robbins, to explore a story that goes far beyond sport—into survival, faith, and the kind of resilience that reshapes a life.

Early in his career as a touring professional golfer, Will survived the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami while on his honeymoon in Thailand. What unfolded in those moments—and in the long road to recovery that followed—changed not only the trajectory of his career, but his understanding of purpose, leadership, and what it truly means to live well.

🎧🪷👉🏼In this conversation, we go beyond the event itself and explore the deeper lessons:

• What happens internally when you come face-to-face with mortality
• The role of faith and instinct in moments of crisis
• How trauma and recovery can reshape identity and purpose
• Why “everyone has a tsunami in their life”—and how to navigate it
• What resilience really looks like in the face of burnout, grief, or uncertainty
• How redefining success can lead to a more meaningful, service-driven life

This is a conversation about leadership in its most human form—when control is stripped away and what remains is who you are at your core.

If you’ve ever faced a moment that changed you… or are navigating one right now… this episode will meet you there.
