How to Get More Out of Your Golf Lessons
Sep 23, 202614 min
Taking a golf lesson is one thing. Getting the most out of it is another. In this episode of Think Above Par, I’m talking about the mental side of golf instruction—how to find an instructor who communicates in a way you understand, what you should realistically expect from a lesson, and what your responsibility is once the lesson is over. We’ll talk about why a good instructor may still not be the right instructor for you, why understanding a swing change isn’t the same as owning it, and why feeling uncomfortable doesn’t necessarily mean you’re doing something wrong. I also share some thoughts about consuming golf instruction on YouTube and social media, practicing what you were actually taught, and why judging a change too quickly by your ball flight can get you into trouble. Because sometimes the hardest part of changing your golf swing isn’t the swing change. It’s how you think about yourself while you’re learning it. In this episode: • How to choose the right golf instructor for you • What to expect from a golf lesson • Why communication between golfer and instructor matters • The danger of chasing the next swing tip online • Why swing changes often feel uncomfortable • How to practice after a lesson • How often you should take golf lessons • Why immediate results aren’t always the best measure of progress • What golf lessons can reveal about your patience, perfectionism, and expectations If you’re investing time and money into golf instruction, this episode will help you become a better student—and get more out of the work you’re already doing.

Why You’re More Irritable on the Golf Course Some Days
Sep 9, 202614 min
Why can you handle a bad shot one day—but completely lose it over the same shot another day? It may have less to do with your golf and more to do with your capacity. In this episode, Kathy explores how stress, mental fatigue, and life off the course can leave you with less patience for missed shots, slow play, and even the people in your group. You’ll learn how to check your “tank” before you play, adjust your expectations without lowering your standards, and stop a low-capacity day from becoming a confidence-crushing round. Because sometimes your golf isn’t broken. You’re just running low on poker chips.

7 Course Management Tips to Save Shots Without Changing Your Swing
Aug 20, 202613 min
Want to save shots without rebuilding your golf swing? Start managing the hole in front of you. In this episode, I’m sharing some of the simple course-management lessons I coached at the Gurus of Golf , an event held following the FedEx Cup at TPC Southwind in Memphis . We played the course in tournament conditions, with the same pin positions from the final round—and let’s just say there were plenty of good lessons out there. We’ll talk about playing par 5s backwards, paying attention to your lie, wind, grain, and where the trouble actually is. I’ll also show you why the “obvious” club isn’t always the smart club, how to stop turning one bad decision into a big number, and why your favorite hybrid might be a much better choice than your driver when keeping the ball in play matters more than feeding your ego. Because better golf isn’t just mechanical. You need swing skills, mental skills, and what I like to call caddy skills—the ability to manage each hole and each shot based on what’s actually happening. If you’re tired of making sixes and sevens from places where a four or five was totally available, this episode is for you. Smarter decisions. Less bleeding. More fun.

“I’m So Fricking Proud”: A Real Golf Mindset Transformation
Aug 12, 202614 min
This is a clip from a live coaching call inside the Your Mental Caddy community — not a scripted interview, just a real conversation about what mental transformation on the golf course can actually look like. Kris Henderson, a member of the community since day one, jumps on the call fresh off qualifying for a USGA Women’s Senior event to talk through how she handled it — a double bogey, a triple bogey, a bad lie in the fescue, and plenty of pressure — without letting any of it wreck her round. And that’s the transformation. We talk about what “18 Proud” actually means in the moment, why your next best move matters more than your last mistake, and how learning to have your own back changes the way you make decisions, commit to shots, and recover when things don’t go your way. Kris also shares how some of the mental game coaching she once resisted became part of her biggest breakthrough. If you’ve ever wondered whether you can actually change the way you think, feel, and respond on the golf course, this is a real-life example of what’s possible. Not the highlight reel. The actual work. Come experience conversations like this inside the Your Mental Caddy community. Receive free weekly mental golf tips HERE How many shots is your mental golf costing you?

Blow-up holes usually don’t come from one bad shot. They come from what you do next. In this episode, I’m breaking down the four reasons big numbers happen and how to stop piling mistakes on top of mistakes. You’ll learn how to calm down, think clearly, make the smart play, and keep one crappy shot from turning into an eight. Because bad shots are part of golf—but the real damage comes from what you do after them. Want help managing your golf brain on and off the course?

If you have a concern about deliverability, AI quality, data privacy, or whether this will actually work for your specific situation, it's probably answered below.
What is the difference between Founder Solo and Founder Pro?
Founder Solo gives you 50 AI pitches per month using the credit model (Standard pitches cost 1 credit, Enriched pitches cost 2). Founder Pro raises that to 200 credits per month and adds full Booking Probability access, unlimited Magic Match, Apollo enrichment credits, and data export capabilities.

Agency tiers have no base fee. You pay per managed client and per talent profile. Agency Standard is $199 per client per month; Agency Pro is $399 per client per month. Both add $39 per talent profile per month. Your own team's user seats are always free.
What is a talent profile?
A talent profile represents one person (founder, executive, or spokesperson) you are booking onto podcasts. It includes their bio, topics, headshots, and outreach history. Team plans include 5 profiles; agency plans are pay-as-you-go.
Can I switch plans later?
Yes, at any time. Upgrades take effect immediately; downgrades apply at the end of the current billing period. Contact support if you need help migrating between plan families.
