About this episode

Steve interviews Dr. Corey W. Holmes about the deeper meanings of golf beyond just the score, touching on themes of fatherhood, friendship, and personal growth.

This week, Steve sits down with Dr. Corey W. Holmes to discuss his book Golf, Cigars, and Scotch: Balancing Fatherhood, Friendship, and Fine Living and why golf is about so much more than the score you shoot. They dive into the mental side of golf, discipline, fatherhood, friendship, and the culture and rituals that make the game so special. Corey shares how golf intersects with business, relationships, personal growth, and living a more intentional life in a fast-paced world. From meaningful conversations on the golf course to lessons learned through failure, patience, and reflection, this episode explores how the game can shape who we are both on and off the course. If you’ve ever felt like golf is more than just a game to you, this conversation will resonate deeply. www.golfcigarsandscotch.com @gcsholmes on Social Media Purchase his book on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Golf-Cigars-Scotch-Fatherhood-Fine-Living/dp/1535601418 www.goforthgolf.com Learn more about your ad choices.
