It comes from the questions you’re asking yourself.In this episode, I’m breaking down the sneaky “I don’t know” questions that spike anxiety, tighten your body, and send your brain into full-on threat mode.“Am I going to shoot under par?” “What are they thinking about me?” “Am I about to blow this round?”Your brain hates uncertainty. And when you ask questions you can’t actually answer, it fills in the blank with fear.I’ll show you how to catch those questions, swap them out, and create certainty your brain can actually work with — so you can play present, confident, and free.Because the solutions are inside of you.
