Show Notes

Welcome to Drive & Thrive: Business on the Green, where two Sams from different worlds come together to explore  connections between the fairway and business.

We discuss how golf's rising popularity, especially post-COVID, mirrors the entrepreneurial journey.

  • The Power of Obsession: Unpacking the three types of people—interested, committed, and obsessed—and how being truly obsessed can catapult you to success in both golf and business.
  • Scaling Up: Insights on moving from six to seven figures and beyond, drawing parallels between scaling a business and improving your golf game.
  • Learning from Setbacks: Personal stories of early career challenges and how embracing failures can lead to greater resilience and creativity.
  • Mentorship and Networking: The importance of surrounding yourself with people who challenge you to grow, whether it's on the golf course or in your professional life.
  • Process Over Results: How focusing on the journey and honing your craft can lead to more sustainable success than merely chasing outcomes.


Join us as we share personal anecdotes, practical advice, and a fair share of laughs—all while highlighting the intrinsic links between passion, discipline, and achievement. Whether you're swinging a club or sealing a deal, this episode offers valuable takeaways to help you drive and thrive in your own endeavors.
