Sports add so many valuable life lessons. Many times we can see then, teach them or preach them to children and often times we can't. In this episode we are going to discuss what these life are in relation to golf and how to adopt sports psychology in to our education for all ages.
Dr. Beth Brown who has a PHD in sports psychology is going to help us better understand those lessons. Her youth sport participation paved the way for her collegiate success as a member of the University of Oklahoma basketball and conference champion women’s golf teams. As her love for sports continued, she realized the unique opportunity sport has to impact not only physical abilities, but life skill development as well. This led Beth to earn her Ph.D. in sports psychology at the University of Kansas. Since then, she’s gone on to influence and impact thousands through her roles as a golf coach, an educational program developer at The First Tee and LPGA-USGA Girls Golf, and founder and owner of the consulting agency, Team Aureus.
