    #124 [Inside the Mind] Emilia Doran: The Emotional Cost of Perfectionism, Saying Less, and Stepping Into A New Identity After Golf
    Jan 1 2026
    If you've ever felt your heart race over a three-footer or a make-or-break sales call, imagine doing that with a camera pointed at your face and thousands of people listening… That's the world broadcaster and national champion golfer Emilia Doran lives in every week. In this episode of The Scratch Golfer's Mindset Podcast, Emilia pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to stay composed on live TV, how she manages nerves under pressure, and why the same routines, reps, and reflections that make her great on-air are the same ingredients you need to perform on the golf course and in business. She shares how she redefined success after stepping away from professional golf, the emotional cost of perfectionism, and what it's like to build a powerful personal brand as a woman in a male-dominated sport—all while keeping joy, gratitude, and perspective at the center. In this episode, you'll learn: How Emilia handles nerves and stays authentic during live broadcastsThe mindset shift that helped her stop chasing perfection and start playing freerPractical ways to simulate "18th-hole pressure" in your practice and prepHow routines, reps, and reflection translate from broadcasting to better golfWhat Emilia's identity shift from pro-track golfer to broadcaster taught her about fulfillmentHow she defines a "successful" broadcast (and why saying less is often more)What it really takes to stand out as a woman in golf and claim your space with confidence Get your pencils ready and start listening.

Instagram: @thegolfhypnotherapist Twitter: @parsoverbogeys Key Takeaways: Treat the camera like a person and slightly exaggerate your natural personality so your true self actually comes through under pressure.Nerves don't disappear; they become more manageable when you simplify the goal—like aiming to say just one truly insightful thing each broadcast.Preparation is routine, reps, and rehearsal: organize your info, rehearse key lines, and build a repeatable process you can trust when the heat turns up.Reflection isn't just about what went wrong—intentionally review what you did well so you don't let one flub define the entire performance.Perfectionism feels like a superpower early on, but if you don't manage your expectations, it becomes emotional kryptonite that drains joy and confidence.Watching the best players closely teaches that even world-class golfers hit plenty of mediocre shots—and handle them with neutrality and grace.In both golf and broadcasting, success is often saying less with more impact and knowing when silence, presence, and emotion are more powerful than words. Key Quotes: "If I can just say one insightful thing to the audience, that's a win.""You might spend five hours on notes and only use ten percent of them—and that's okay.""Broadcasting is a job of imperfection; it's how you handle yourself when things go slightly awry that matters.""I had to accept that golf isn't my number one priority anymore—and still let that be okay.""The more I worked in golf, the more I realized I didn't want to feel emotionally...

    #123: Do the Work: My 2025 Golf Reckoning and 2026 Identity Shift
    Dec 29 2025
    In this solo episode of The Scratch Golfer's Mindset Podcast, I'm sharing a raw, honest reflection on my 2025 golf season—what improved, what I avoided, where fear quietly ran the show, and why the theme of 2026 is simple: do the work. I walk you through the exact 15 reflection questions I challenged my newsletter readers to answer—and I read my own straight-from-the-journal responses. Then I close by defining the identity I'm stepping into in 2026: committed, intentional, and fearless—with a clear focus on becoming a longer hitter, sharper from 125 and in, and mentally tougher when things get uncomfortable. If you've been stuck in inconsistency, rushing your routine, or playing not to mess up, this episode will give you a mirror—and a reset. In this episode, you'll learn: The 15 reflection questions I use to audit a season and upgrade my golf identityWhy false urgency destroys routines, decision-making, and scoringHow fear shows up as "smart golf" (laying back, avoiding driver) and silently caps your potentialThe difference between practicing and practicing with intentionalityHow I'm building more presence and focus using a 3-hole check-in resetWhat I'm no longer willing to tolerate in my game—and why that line mattersThe identity shift I'm making in 2026: committed, intentional, fearless—and what that looks like in action Get your pencils ready and start listening.

Instagram: @thegolfhypnotherapist 15 Reflection Questions: What do I want in 2026?What do I want more of?What do I want less of?What am I no longer willing to tolerate in my golf game?What patterns kept repeating for me this year—and why?Where did I abandon my standards when things got uncomfortable?What did I pretend "didn't matter," even though it clearly did?What am I still blaming on my swing that's actually mental or emotional?Where did fear quietly make my decisions for me this year?What did I avoid working on because it exposed my real edge?When did I play not to mess up instead of playing to perform?What part of my game actually improved—and why did it improve?What drained my energy on the course more than it should have?What would change if I trusted myself one level more?If nothing changes in 2026, what will that cost me—emotionally and competitively? Key Takeaways: You don't need more knowledge to reach scratch—you need consistent, intentional work.False urgency destroys routines, decision-making, and scoring faster than any swing flaw.Fear often disguises itself as "smart golf" and quietly caps your potential.Your routine matters most right after great holes and bad holes, not when things feel easy.Intentional practice creates predictable performance; random reps create random results.Emotional toughness is built by sitting in discomfort instead of numbing or avoiding it.Identity is the real upgrade, and in 2026 that identity is committed, intentional, and fearless. Key Quotes: "The theme of 2026 is do the work—not the easy stuff, not the surface-level stuff, the real work.""I already have the talent and capability to be a scratch golfer; inconsistency was the real issue.""I'm no longer willing to tolerate playing hurried golf with a false sense of urgency.""Fear made decisions everywhere this year, especially when I convinced myself I was being strategic.""Avoiding driver and playing not to mess up kept me playing par fours like par fives.""Vulnerability, ownership, and accountability aren't weaknesses—they're performance accelerators.""If nothing changes in 2026, it will cost me everything."

    #122: [Inside the Mind] Trevor Tellin: The Power of Self-Talk and Having Better Conversations with Yourself to Build Confidence and Resilience
    Dec 26 2025
    Your self-talk is the only voice you hear 24/7 — and most days, it's not that kind. For many golfers and entrepreneurs, that inner dialogue quietly runs the show: it talks you out of what you know you should be doing, keeps you glued to comfort, and convinces you you're not ready, not worthy, or not capable of the next level. In this episode of The Scratch Golfer's Mindset Podcast, I sit down with mindset coach Trevor Tellin to unpack how your inner voice shapes your identity, your confidence, and your results — on the golf course and in business. In this episode, you'll learn: Spot the invisible ways your self-talk sabotages your golf game and business.Use a simple "reward scale" to win more debates between the couch and the range.Personify your inner voices so you can work with them instead of being ruled by them.Create space between you and your thoughts so they feel less personal and more workable.Use Interloop to capture real self-talk data from your rounds and turn it into growth.Understand fear of success, over-identifying with "the grind," and how they keep you stuck.Build mental toughness and confidence through repetition, hard things, and self-compassion. 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. More About Trevor Trevor Tellin is a high-performance mindset coach who helps golfers master the mental side of the game so they can perform with confidence, composure, and clarity under pressure. Founder of Mindset Coach Trev, he works with competitive amateurs, college players, and professionals to help them overcome fear, perfectionism, and self-doubt—on and off the course.

Click here to learn more about how high-performance hypnotherapy and mindset coaching can help you get out of your own way and play to your potential on (and off) the course. Instagram: @thegolfhypnotherapist Key Takeaways: Awareness is everything — most self-talk patterns run on autopilot until you finally slow down enough to hear them.Every choice is an exchange; comfort feels good now, but it often carries the hidden cost of slowing or blocking your long-term growth.Scoring your choices helps you override resistance by comparing the real value of short-term comfort vs. long-term reward.Personifying your inner voices creates separation, making it easier to recognize which ones help you and which ones hijack you.Tools like Interloop reveal patterns you'd never notice on your own, giving you tangible data to change your on-course self-talk.Fear of success often drives sabotage — when you get close to the next level, the uncertainty of "what comes with it" pulls you back.Mental toughness and confidence come from repetition, doing hard things, and proving to yourself (again and again) that you can handle discomfort. Key Quotes: "We're so familiar with our inner voice that we don't realize how often it runs the show.""We rationalize sabotage because the excuses sound convincing coming from ourselves.""Every decision is an exchange — you can't get what you want without giving up something.""When you personify a limiting voice, it becomes easier to question and redirect it.""Turning a feeling into a character creates distance, and distance creates choice.""Most people envy the result but not the inputs required to reach it.""Mental toughness is being present in discomfort and choosing to lean in anyway."
