I’m joined by Daniel Boisvert a golf performance coach who’s developed 13 of the top players in Massachusetts, sent dozens to D1 programs, and currently works with NBA and NFL athletes.

For the first time on this podcast we explore the science behind perseverance: what really builds it, how it shows up on the course, and how golfers can train it intentionally. Then, we break down the research on happiness—and how a golfer’s own happiness can directly impact performance even on a recreational level.

Dan brings a rare blend of results-driven coaching as we mix it with science-backed strategy. If you’re an athlete, coach, regular golf player, or mental performance nerd, this one’s a must-listen.
