But it can show you where you’re not at peace.” “You don’t need a better plan. You need more discipline with the one you’ve got.” – Jack Nicklaus to Rory McIlroy “The ball doesn’t move. You do. That second before you swing… that’s the moment of Zen.” “There’s only one way in life — yours.” Who This Episode Is For: Golfers looking to connect deeper with the game (and themselves) Coaches, athletes, and performers navigating mindset and emotional regulation Anyone interested in mindfulness, self-inquiry, or conscious living Those processing grief, change, or a desire to stop and reflect Listeners ready to explore the longest journey – the one within Connect with Pete & Paul: Pete Cohen Website: petecohen.com Paul Hurcomb Conscious Golf Group (Facebook) – for golfers seeking deeper conversations and connection through golf www.meetingsinstillness.com www.Paulhurcomb.Org Call to Action: Loved this episode?
