Playing Through is a podcast committed to sharing stories related to mental performance and wellness. Each week we will interview athletes and experts to learn how they “played through” some of the toughest moments in their career. Tune in every Wednesday for exciting new content!
This week I had the honor of interviewing Eastern Michigan University Head Women’s Golf Coach Josh Brewer. Although not typically a powerhouse golf school, EMU made a name for themselves this year at the NCAA Championship quarterfinals, knocking off the University of Texas and shocking the whole golf world. Coming in as an underdog, Coach Brewer knew that having self-belief and trusting their preparations could take them all the way. In this interview, Josh and I discuss the mindset that carried his team further than anyone thought they could go, his passion for coaching and being the underdog, and finally we talked about how high school golfers should be building their confidence now to perform under pressure.

Lorena Rossettin - Rutgers University Women's Golf Senior
Welcome back to another episode!
This week, you’ll hear my conversation with Rutgers University senior Lorena Rossettin. Lorena came to the US from Italy ready to dominate in the college golf world. Going into her junior year, she saw tremendous success and was named the Big 10 Conference player to watch. Unfortunately, soon after Lorena experienced a severe wrist injury resulting in two surgeries that changed everything for her.
Lorie and I discuss how she navigated the recovery process, what it was like to seek professional support for the first time, and where her mind is now heading into her final year of competitive golf.
