    #107: Stop Starting Over: Separation Season Has Arrived
    2025/11/03
    Every winter, it happens… Your clubs collect dust, your swing feels distant, and that quiet voice creeps in: "What if I lose everything I worked for this season?" But what most golfers lose in the off-season isn't their mechanics — it's their confidence. You stop swinging. You stop visualizing. You stop feeling like a golfer. And by the time spring rolls around, you're not just rusty — you're hesitant, uncertain, and disconnected from the player you were just a few months ago. Here's the truth: confidence isn't built under sunshine and scorecards — it's built in the dark. It's built in the quiet reps no one sees, the small acts of discipline that nobody celebrates. This winter, you have a choice: You can coast, like every other golfer who slides backward once the weather turns… or you can treat these months like Separation Season — your chance to build confidence, sharpen your edge, and step into spring already playing the best golf of your life. In this episode, you'll learn: Why most golfers lose confidence, not mechanics, in the off-season — and how to protect it.The four mental traps that create regression and how to beat each one.How to set a minimum effective dose for practice, fitness, and mindset work.The identity shift needed to think, train, and prepare like a golfer year-round.And how to design an off-season plan that builds momentum now — so you never have to "find your swing" again. If you're ready to break the typical golf season pattern of two steps forward, three steps back, and breakthrough to play to your potential in 2026, this episode is for you.

Instagram: @thegolfhypnotherapist Key Takeaways: Confidence decays first. Touch a club and your routine multiple times per week to keep the "golfer" identity alive.Beat all-or-nothing with a minimum-effective-dose: short, repeatable sessions > heroic plans you won't sustain.Comfort creep is costly. Indulgence is fine; defaulting to comfort isn't. Keep micro-standards through the holidays.Excuses in a suit are still excuses. "I'll wait for better conditions" trains retreat, not resilience.Accountability accelerates. Coach, community, or check-ins — add a scoreboard and you'll show up.Lift the floor. Off-season is perfect for strength, mobility, and power so your worst days get better.Calendar = commitment. If it isn't blocked, it isn't real. Audit, schedule, and protect your reps. Key Quotes: "Confidence isn't built in season — it's built in the dark.""Most golfers don't lose ground from weather; they lose it from mental drift.""All-or-nothing is perfectionism dressed up as logic.""Comfort is a habit. So is consistency. Choose which one you'll practice.""Excuses preserve the ego but poison momentum.""Raise the floor this winter — strength and identity travel.""If it's not on your calendar, it's not a priority. It's a wish."

    #106: [Inside the Mind] Elliot Roe: Chasing Balance, Burning Dirty Fuel, and Overcoming Invisible Resistance
    2025/10/30
    In this episode of The Scratch Golfer's Mindset Podcast, I sit down with my mentor, world-renowned mindset and performance coach, Elliot Roe. Together, we engage in a power discussion to unpack what truly separates high performers from the rest—how to release subconscious resistance, redefine balance, and access peak states on demand.

He also dives into the relationship between identity, fear, and indecision—and how understanding these elements can elevate your performance on the course, in business, and in life. In this episode, you'll learn: How to balance ambition and detachment to perform your best under pressure.Why "invisible resistance" keeps you stuck—and how to finally remove it.The neuroscience of hypnosis and how it reprograms limiting beliefs.How identity and subconscious stories shape performance and self-worth.A simple exercise to reveal the habits separating you from elite performers.Why fear of success and fear of failure are two sides of the same coin.How presence—not anger or intensity—fuels true peak performance. Whether you're chasing your next big win, breaking 80, or scaling your company, this conversation offers tactical frameworks and mindset shifts to help you remove the invisible brakes and unlock your true potential. Get your pencils ready and start listening. P.P.S. Curious to learn more about the results my clients are experiencing and what they say about working with me? Read more here.

If sleep, family, training, and mindset work aren't scheduled, your goals are fantasy.Clear the landmines first: Use hypnosis/subconscious work to neutralize old emotional triggers so you're not "driving with the brakes on."Identity follows behavior: List what the best in your field do, mark what you're avoiding, and face those reps—belief grows after action.Indecision is ego-protection: Not deciding preserves the story "I'd win if I tried." Decide, act, and let data reshape the story.Presence beats anger: Elite performance (golf, trading, UFC, business) comes from calm focus and recovery skills—not rage or intensity. Key Quotes: "If you know what to do and can't bring yourself to do it, you don't need a strategy coach—you need a mindset coach.""Balance isn't a weakness. It's a performance enhancer.""You can't separate who you are off the course from who shows up on the course.""Indecision is ego protection—it lets you believe you'd succeed if you tried.""Fear of failure and fear of success both whisper the same lie: I'm not enough.""Our work as coaches is to file down the edges of the cube until it rolls smoothly—until you're in flow.""You are not your issues.

    #105: My First Member-Guest Experience - A Recap
    2025/10/27
    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 apartThe mindset shift that helped me play calm golf while feeling physically awfulHow to simplify focus and stay composed through delays, chaos, and pressureWhat poor communication (and one painful scoring mistake) taught me about teamworkThe mental difference between avoiding a weakness and training through itWhy gratitude is the fastest way to reset mid-round and regain confidenceHow 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.

Instagram: @thegolfhypnotherapist Key Takeaways: Control the controllables, shrink the focus. Limited energy forced me to narrow attention to a few keys—hydration, tempo, target.Gratitude regulates performance. A 60-second gratitude reset shifted me from frustration to neutral and sparked a strong finish.Communication is strategy. Score-checking and slowing down on tap-ins would've saved a hole; over-communicate under stress.Bunker avoidance isn't a plan. Weakness avoidance became a liability; targeted reps + one committed technique are mandatory.Course management beats ego. Long irons and conservative lines kept us in play and in matches—even without driver.Blissful boredom wins. Treat each shot as routine; remove drama to keep execution steady through delays and chaos.Team > hero shot. Celebrate partners' contributions as much as your clutch moments; it strengthens trust when it matters. Key Quotes: "I had zero energy—so I spent it on the only three things that moved the needle.""Gratitude was my reset button; it pulled me from anger back to neutral.""Avoiding a weakness is not a strategy—it's a ticking time bomb.""When the day goes sideways, shrink the goal to one shot and one breath.""Over-communicate scores under pressure; assumptions are expensive.""Blissful boredom is a superpower—routine drains the drama out of big moments.""Winning our flight wasn't one swing; it was two teammates honoring their roles."

  • #103: The Myth of Balance: Why High Performers Need Alignment

    #103: The Myth of Balance: Why High Performers Need Alignment
    2025/10/21

    High performers don't need "balance"—they need alignment.

    In this solo episode, I'll challenge the cultural myth of work-life balance and reframe success around energetic alignment: being ruthless with honesty about what you truly want, communicating clearly with yourself and others, and rhythms that fuel—rather than drain—your focus.

    I break down the neuroscience of burnout (why your prefrontal cortex goes offline, limbic system spikes, and motivation flatlines), show how misalignment creates chaos on the course and in business, and offer a practical path: define your wants, design your week around them, and protect one non-work outlet to speed subconscious integration.

    In this episode, you'll learn:

    • Why "balance" often sabotages high performers—and what to pursue instead
    • How chronic stress rewires the brain and quietly kills decision-making
    • A simple question that unlocks clarity and alignment ("What do I want?")
    • How honest communication becomes the foundation for sustainable ambition
    • A practical dashboard model for dialing priorities up or down by season
    • Why a non-industry hobby accelerates learning and prevents burnout
    • How to translate alignment into lower scores, stronger leadership, and more joy

    The goal isn't equal time everywhere; it's intentional energy where it matters most—so you can compete hard, recover well, and feel fulfilled.

    Get your pencils ready and start listening.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Balance ≠ equal hours—set your week by intentional energy, not symmetry.
    • Burnout is a brain problem: stress dulls focus and creativity; you play and lead worse.
    • Ask it daily: "What do I want?"—then build practice, work, and family rhythms around it.
    • Honest communication first with yourself, then with partner, kids, and team.
    • Seasonal dials: different goals need different settings; adjust without guilt.
    • Have one non-golf outlet (or non-work for entrepreneurs) to recharge and integrate skills.
    • Alignment feels clean: fewer reactive decisions, more presence over the ball—and at home.

    Key Quotes:

    • "High performers don't need balance—they need alignment."
    • "Chasing society's balance felt inauthentic; alignment felt honest."
    • "Chronic stress turns your prefrontal cortex down and your limbic system up."
    • "Ask yourself all day long: What do I want? Then design around that answer."
    • "Every breakthrough begins with honest communication—starting with you."
    • "You can have it all—just not all at 100 at the same time."
    • "The goal isn't dividing time; it's defining your truth and protecting your energy."

    #101: The Pleasure Hidden in Your Pain: Why You Might Secretly Love the Struggle
    2025/10/13

    What if the stress, chaos, and self-sabotage you keep bumping into are exactly what a hidden part of you wants?

    In this solo episode, I explore the powerful concept from the book, "Existential Kink," that "having is a form of wanting" and reveal how your mind can secretly crave the very patterns that hold you back.

    Through a raw personal story and a three-step framework, you'll learn how to uncover hidden programs that create stress and sabotage in your golf game, business, and life, so you can finally break free and play with calm, confidence, and clarity.

    In this episode, you'll learn:

    • What "having is a form of wanting" means for your golf game and life
    • How early programming creates today's patterns of chaos, fear, and urgency
    • A three-step method (Acknowledge, Accept, Act) to shift stubborn habits
    • How curiosity + breath turn discomfort into data you can use
    • Why identity fear keeps you "almost there" (breaking 80, scaling revenue)
    • A 15-minute journal exercise to map stressors and rewrite beliefs

    If you've been "almost" breaking 80, "almost" scaling the business, or "almost" following up with hot leads, this will help you see why—and how to finally play free.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Shadow patterns persist because they once met a need; honor that before you edit it.
    • Identity fear ("Who will I be if I break 80?") often blocks the final 5%.
    • Presence + breath are the fastest way to access and soften hidden programs.
    • Acceptance is not approval—it's the on-ramp to real change.
    • Curiosity beats judgment; treat tension in the body as useful feedback.
    • Write the new rule: swap "almost" stories for precise, process-driven scripts.
    • Fitness and daily reps (breath, journaling, hypnosis) cement the new identity.

    Key Quotes:

    • "Having is a form of wanting—your patterns persist because some part of you benefits."
    • "You can't change code you refuse to read: acknowledge, accept, then act."
    • "Curiosity turns discomfort into data."
    • "Identity fear keeps golfers married to the 'almost broke 80' story."
    • "Acceptance isn't surrender; it's traction."
    • "Breathe where it hurts—presence is the scalpel that removes old programs."
    • "If you want different results, you must believe different—and then do different."

    #100: [Inside the Mind] Mark Immelman: Resilience Has Two Parts and Why Your Routine is Your Armor
    2025/10/09
    What separates winners on Sunday isn't perfection—it's resilience, disciplined routines, and the will to find a way. In this conversation, CBS analyst, coach, and author Mark Immelman shares what he's learned from a front-row seat on Tour: why Scottie Scheffler's process never wavers, how Rory's Masters breakthrough rewrote a narrative, and why clutch putting—and perspective—decide tournaments. We also dig into fitness as the gateway to mental toughness, "the chaser's freedom vs. the leader's burden," and how to keep swinging freely when everything tightens up.

Instagram: @thegolfhypnotherapist Twitter: @parsoverbogeys Key Takeaways: Resilience has two parts: get up after setbacks and resist the urge to "fix everything" when you do.Routine is armor: Scheffler's unwavering pre-shot/process is a blueprint for stability when the heat rises.Win with the putter: Final-nine scorelines (33–35) come from one-putting key moments—par saves matter as much as birdies.Chaser's freedom vs. leader's burden: If you're chasing, be boldly smart; if you're leading, avoid prevent-defense golf.Fitness fuels mindset: Strength before endless stretching—capacity under heat/pressure comes from being strong and conditioned.Perspective frees you: Care about doing the right thing, not about outcomes—play "with house money" more often.Self-awareness wins: Know your real-time yardages, conditions, and "today's shot"—choose the smart side of flags. Key Quotes: "You never fall to world number one—you outlast everyone else.""Winners find a way. It isn't pretty; it's often a war of attrition.""Let your putter be the superstar.""Resilience isn't changing everything after a bad shot—it's sticking to what works.""The chaser has freedom; the leader carries the burden.""Get strong, then get mobile—most golfers aren't tight; they're not strong enough.""Care about doing the right thing, not the result—play free and the scores follow."
