Life's Tee Time

Life's Tee Time

By Samantha Schuffenecker

A podcast about making the most of amateur golf life. Join me as I figure out how to balance work, life, and a hobby I love through conversations with others on this journey. In this podcast, I will explore what it takes to compete at a high level and how we can use the lessons of sport to thrive in our daily lives. I will talk with my fellow competitors and coaches. Think of it as getting to know athletes like you with some life lessons along the way.
