Episode 44
J.J. Spaun was ready to quit and retire from golf last year. But this past weekend? He became the 2025 U.S. Open champion. His journey has been marred by personal setbacks (including health issues), but through it all he's developed a mantra to stay in it. His mindset to “go down swinging” helped free him up to enjoy the process and go all-in on his dreams. In this episode, we explore what Spaun’s historic win can teach us about commitment and staying in the game when you're tempted to give up.
