Dave Phillips: Golf & Entreprenuership

Michael Gervais (0:09)

This is the Finding Mastery Podcast, and I am Michael Gervais.

And in these conversations, we're going to sit down with people who are on the path of mastery. And what basically that means is that they either touch mastery or they're hungry to understand it. And the goal of the conversations is to identify their psychological framework, which is how they see themselves and how they understand how the world works. And also understand the robust and sturdy practices that allow them to explore their potential. And in the case of this conversation, explore the potential of others. And in essence, the end game hope is to provide you with ways that you can train your mind and your craft in a very similar fashion to some of the world's exceptional performers. And we're just going to pull back the curtain and see if we can get some deep clarity on what those practices look like. And in this episode, it's with Dave Phillips. Finding Mastery is brought to you by Bubbs Naturals. Like many of you, I'm mindful about what I put in my body. For me, it usually comes down to ingredients and simplicity. The shorter the list, the better. And if I have to look it up, I'm usually out. That's why I've been loving Bubbs Naturals. Bubbs creates products with high quality, all natural ingredients designed to help people get after their adventures in life. I've been a huge fan of their hydrate or dye electrolyte mix for years now. It only has six total ingredients, but it's packed with five times the electrolytes as conventional sports drinks, with none of the added sugars, artificial flavors, sweeteners, or preservatives. It's great for post-workout recovery, outdoor adventures, and staying hydrated during long periods of travel, which I've done a lot of lately, and Bubbs is a go-to for me. Plus, all Bubbs products are 100% NSF for sport certified, which means they pass the most rigorous quality standards. They're currently in just about every MLB locker room, working closely with the Red Sox, Yankees, Rangers, Cardinals, Diamondbacks, and more, of course. I'd love for you to go and check them out.

And Dave is a world leading coach. He has a global perspective of what world leading coaching looks like. He's traveled the world. He's lived in many, many different countries as we talk about. And he himself has made as an expert coach, he's made golf's top 100 teachers since 2000 And he's also recognized by Golf Digest as one of the top 50 coaches in the US.

And maybe more importantly in this conversation, he's taken the insights of his craft and turned it into a wonderful business to be able to accelerate the coaching craft inside of golf. So he's spent 25 years working how to really understand how to teach others how to excel. And so this is I'm excited because this is about coaching and this is about expert coaching. And the most important coach we have is the coach within ourselves. Our inner dialogue, the conversation we have with ourselves is either creating glass ceilings and structures to not go for it, or it's creating opportunities to take a shot and take a risk and work hard and stay with it. And so we are our most important coach. And that's essentially, I think, one of the really robust strategies that we'll learn here. And so as a co-founder of the Titleist Performance Institute with Dr. Greg Rose, really what they've done is it's a game changer in the field of golf.
