When Vision Fades but Purpose Grows: A Junior Golfer’s Comeback Story
What happens when a rising junior golf star suddenly loses her central vision—but refuses to lose her dream? In this inspiring and deeply moving episode, we share the incredible story of Amanda Cunha—an elite junior golfer whose life changed almost overnight after being diagnosed with a rare genetic condition that left her legally blind. What could have ended her journey instead became the beginning of a powerful new purpose. From competing at the legendary Pinehurst Resort to returning just two years later to play in the inaugural U.S. Adaptive Open, Amanda’s story is one of grit, faith, and relentless resilience. Inspired early on by fellow Hawaiian champion Michelle Wie West, Amanda chose courage over fear. With unwavering family support and opportunities created through the United States Golf Association, she has become a rising voice and trailblazer in adaptive golf. Now competing collegiately at the University of Arizona, Amanda is helping open doors for future adaptive athletes—proving that vision isn’t just what you see, it’s what you believe. This episode is for every golf parent, junior golfer, and athlete navigating pressure, setbacks, or adversity.

Inside a Golf Mom’s Entrepreneurial Journey: The Turtlebacks Story
In this episode, Host Alesha Nicole sits down with Emily Sprague (https://www.instagram.com/shopturtlebacks/), mom of three and Founder/CEO of Turtlebacks (https://www.shopturtlebacks.com/), the boys’ golf-inspired performance apparel brand loved across the junior golf community. After a 15-year career as an attorney, Emily took a leap into entrepreneurship when she realized her active boys only wanted to wear sports clothes—yet nothing offered the comfort, polish, and confidence they needed for school, the golf course, and everyday life. What began as one “perfect pair of pants” has grown into a full line of versatile performance apparel that makes getting dressed easier for kids and parents. Emily shares her journey from law to building a fast-growing golf brand, the mindset lessons of raising active boys, and how clothing impacts confidence, performance, and self-expression. We dive into • Leaving the legal world and starting a brand from scratch • Raising confident, active boys and the mindset side of junior golf • Reinvention, risk-taking, and trusting your instincts Whether you're a golf parent, aspiring entrepreneur, or someone who loves a story of passion meeting purpose, this conversation will inspire you. ✨ Find Emily & Turtlebacks: Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/shopturtlebacks/)@shopturtlebacks 🎉 SPECIAL OFFER: Turtlebacks is giving our listeners 15% off with promo code GMM15 at checkout! www.shopturtlebacks.com (http://www.shopturtlebacks.com) 🎧 Listen on: Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music & iHeartRadio 📺 Watch the full episode on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/@GolfMomMindset) ✨ Follow & Connect with Golf Mom Mindset: Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/golfmommindset/) @golfmommindset 🎯 Shop Golf Mom Mindset Products: 🔗 Website: https://www.golfmommindset.com/ (https://www.golfmommindset.com/) Amazon Store: amazon.com/shop/golfmommindset (http://amazon.com/shop/golfmommindset) Shop My Us: shopmy.us/shop/golfmommindset (http://shopmy.us/shop/golfmommindset) Shop LTK: shopltk.com/explore/GolfMomMindset (http://shopltk.com/explore/GolfMomMindset) Pinterest: pinterest.com/golfmommindset (http://pinterest.com/golfmommindset) Affiliate links may earn commission at no extra cost to you.
