'These words come to mind when reflecting on Julie’s book: introspection, accountability, journey, root cause, clarity and freedom. And the book’s wisdom is not limited to golf – it applies to our entire lives' -- Dottie Pepper 'Every professional golfer I know needs two coaches: one for their swing and the other for their noggin. Julie Elion has helped dozens of athletes reach their full potential, and the results speak for themselves. Here you get an inside look at Julie’s special road map' -- Al Michaels 'Julie Elion has been a friend and colleague of mine for nearly two decades. We have worked with multiple players in that time. Her knowledge and wisdom are peerless, but her real strength as a performance psychologist comes from the love with which she treats her players and her deep empathy and understanding of the human condition' -- Sean Foley 'I’ve known Julie for years, and I’ve never had a single conversation with her after which I didn’t walk away more focused, more directed, and more positive about achieving my goals. In business and sports, the true differentiator isn’t talent or preparation, but mindset. Julie has a unique ability to distill the principles that separate consistent performers from the rest' -- Jimmy Dunne 'I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Julie both personally and professionally for more than a decade. I’ve watched her work intimately with both elite players and members of our family. Like so many things in our beautiful game, her work starts out as a must-have for our golf journey and then inevitably and elegantly weaves into life lessons as well. Her compelling book will help readers with their golf games and, more important, in the game of life' -- Seth Waugh
