   Real Game Season 1 Highlights: Pressure, Mindset, and the Stories Behind the Wins

   What do a Hall of Fame linebacker, a Yankees outfielder, and a WNBA All-Star have in common? This season, they all showed us the same thing — the real game is never just the game. Revisit Season one's most unforgettable moments. We close season one of Real Game with a highlight episode reflecting on eight guests and the shared realities of chasing a dream: sacrifices, pressure, and the inner mindset required to compete. LPGA veteran Lindy Duncan reframes nerves as focus and proof you care; performance advisor Justin Sua shares a bedtime three-question system to build optimism and control; Golf Channel's Blair O’Neal discusses backlash for being different and capitalizing on opportunities; MLB’s Aaron Hicks describes the win-now expectations of the Yankees; WNBA champion Dearica Hamby shows success isn’t linear; LPGA’s Sandra Gal's secret to staying in the flow; and hall of famer Brian Urlacher's most humbling lesson as a dad.

   Real Transformation with Big Break's Blair O'Neal

   Blair O'Neal has never followed a straight line, only a determined one. She learned early what it meant to bet on herself. As a two-time NCAA Long Drive Champion, Big Break Winner, and Golf Channel star, Blair has become one of the most recognizable faces in golf. But what defines Blair isn't the highlights. It's her ability to adapt, rebuild, and keep moving forward. When the path shifted, her dream changed, she didn't quit. She evolved and carved out a new lane on her own terms.

   Real Perseverance with LPGA Pro Lindy Duncan

   Once a decorated NCAA golfer Lindy Duncan hit rock bottom midway through her professional career when a pivotal tournament mistake forced her to confront years of self-inflicted pressure, and harsh self-talk. But 2025 was the year that changed everything for her. Lindy found renewed joy at age 34 after years of grinding without clear results, contending at the Chevron Championship, going public about her quiet struggles and earning the LPGA Heather Farr Perseverance Award. We talked about her renewed commitment to rebuilding her self-awareness, how she's learned not punish herself for outcomes, and playing with freedom under major-championship pressure.

   Real Performance with Leadership Performance Advisor Justin Su'a

   What does it take to perform under peak pressure? How do you raise kids to be successful performers? In this episode, Performance Leadership Advisor, Justin Su'a (Cleveland Browns, Dodgers, Toronto Maple Leafs, Tampa Bay Rays, PGA & LPGA Tour) explains why outcomes like “be confident” or “trust the process” only work when athletes build clear, measurable systems and routines—and how self-awareness, feedback, and the right inner circle support that. We discuss embracing nerves in big moments, reframing negative “what if” spirals, and why “quantum leaps” come from consistent inputs over time. This is the conversation every athlete and parent raising confident kids should watch.

    Real Pressure with MLB Veteran Aaron Hicks

    For the first time, I sit down with my husband, Aaron Hicks who spent 11 seasons in the MLB — including years inside the pressure cooker that is New York Yankees baseball. Aaron knows what it feels like to be locked in. He also knows what it feels like to spiral. In this conversation Aaron opens up about protecting your confidence in a sport built on failure, the mental toll of injuries, the gut-punch of a costly misplay with no chance to redeem yourself, and how starting over in Baltimore reminded him why he loved the game.
