Guests: Lynn Marriott and Pia Nilsson

Excelling in a sport requires more than mastering the mechanics of the game; it requires heart. In this illuminating podcast episode, host Deborah Rozman connects with Pia Nilsson and Lynn Marriott, renowned golf coaches and co-founders of the acclaimed VISION54 golf school, to explore the transformative power of heart coherence in sports and in life.

Since 1997, Pia and Lynn have been using HeartMath coherence tools in their coaching work to help talented golfers improve their game and grow as people. Drawing from their extensive experience coaching elite athletes, Pia and Lynn share how heart coherence qualities like love, gratitude, and appreciation create more than just feel-good states—they are foundational to higher performance, resilience, and mastering the game of life. They’ve witnessed firsthand how practicing these powerful heart attitudes synchronizes heart and brain into a coherent state that not only enhances players’ skills but also helps them become happier and more aware people.

Pia, Lynn, and Deborah discuss the ways in which accessing and truly allowing ourselves to experience heart coherence in sports becomes a doorway to deeper clarity, presence, and purpose in other aspects of our lives. We’re better able to sustain higher performance levels, enjoy stronger relationships, and find more joy and flow through the ups and downs of daily living.

The episode closes with a guided, heart-focused meditation, inviting us to connect with these regenerative heart emotions so we can radiate that energy into all the areas of our lives and be able to perform at our very best.
