Wounded warriors don't just lose part of their body, they lose the life they once knew. For Ramon Padilla, that meant letting go of his dreams of a long military career and finding a new mission in recovery.

What he didn't expect was the game of golf to become his therapy, his challenge, and his motivation. In this episode, you'll hear how golf helped him rebuild his life, connect with other veterans, and even share the course with Tiger Woods.

Ramon’s story reminds us that golf isn’t just a game — it’s a lifeline for veterans rediscovering their purpose after service.
