Descripción

Tisha Alyn joins Dan Evans for one of the most honest and wide-ranging conversations we’ve had on the show. From starting golf at 3 years old, to her family moving from Illinois to California for her future in the game, to chasing pro golf with no backup plan, Tisha has always gone all in. In this episode, she opens up about pressure, identity, family sacrifice, coming out in golf, building a career through social media before there was a real blueprint for it, and why she eventually decided to build something even bigger with her own brand. This is a conversation about belief, risk, self-expression, and what it really takes to create your own lane in golf.0:00 Tisha Alyn joins the show0:35 Why golf isn’t really “fun” anymore1:16 Living on airplanes and finally being home2:05 Is balance even possible?3:02 Starting golf at 3 years old3:24 The story of her dad cutting down a golf club4:14 Becoming competitive at a young age4:54 From Rockford to California for golf6:21 The family sacrifice behind her career8:05 When pressure first hit her golf game9:38 Getting humbled in California10:33 Learning to love golf again11:20 Who she was most afraid to let down12:42 Why her siblings didn’t stay in golf13:59 Going pro with total self-belief15:16 Why she was “delusional” enough to try16:07 How social media changed everything18:08 The mindset that always drove her19:23 Handling negativity and self-doubt21:44 The people who keep her grounded22:02 From pro golf grind to social media career23:00 Paige Spiranac’s early encouragement24:13 The post that changed everything24:35 Her first paid golf/content gig25:30 The moment she knew pro golf wasn’t the only path26:16 Why no one could guide her through the pivot28:15 What her family worried about most29:59 Being fully herself in public30:52 Coming out, family, and sponsor support33:01 Why visibility in golf mattered so much34:21 What she’d say to younger Tisha36:14 The years she realized she was really making it37:35 Launching her women’s golf apparel brand39:21 Why she’s never comfortable41:25 What people don’t see about building a business44:22 How the brand idea actually started47:56 Why women’s golf fashion made the most sense48:03 What recharging really looks like49:27 Learning how to be alone50:06 Dating while living in the spotlight
