THE GOLF YOURSELF HAPPY PODCAST

Bi-weekly reflections and conversations for everyday golfers who want to enjoy the game again — without obsessing over perfection.

Hosted by Golf mindset coach, Kris Lynch, it challenges the performance-first culture of modern golf and explores how mindset, pressure, expectations, and identity shape the way we play.

The podcast accompanies the Happy Hackers community, a space for golfers who choose enjoyment before ego.
