Episode Summary:


In this episode, Ian Hawkins shares the three key steps from his signature system that helped a professional golfer transform his mindset, trust his decisions, and perform under pressure with results that reached far beyond the course. Drawing from months of one-on-one coaching, Ian explains how subtle shifts in self-awareness, perspective, and high-performance habits can deliver consistency and confidence not just in sport, but in business and life.


Through the golfer’s story, Ian unpacks the importance of knowing yourself at a deep level understanding your personal performance profile, recognising your strengths, and aligning your actions accordingly. He explores how changing the narrative you tell yourself can reshape your mental process, enabling you to stay calm and confident even after setbacks.


Listeners will learn how to build a high-performance state they can step into at will, create aligned habits that drive consistency, and fast-track their own growth by leveraging proven strategies rather than years of trial and error. This is a practical and inspiring roadmap for anyone looking to lift their game and achieve sustained results.
