On this week's episode, Kenn and Cass had the incredible honour of sitting down with former LPGA tour player and Realtor, AJ Eathorne, to discuss the lessons she learned while playing the beautiful game of golf.
AJ grew up in the Okanagan Valley, and started golfing at age 13. After success as a junior, she received a full-ride scholarship to New Mexico State University and became a professional golfer immediately after graduation. Her immense talent took her the LPGA at only 22 years old. Throughout her 11 year career, AJ had over 15 top ten finishes and travelled worldwide to play golf.
During our conversation, AJ shares her amazing memories while on tour, as well as the challenges of being a professional athlete playing an individual sport. She also shares the details of her time caddying in the PGA and LPGA, and she discusses her decision to change careers from golf professional to real estate professional.
Beyond telling Kenn and Cass the memories she made during her career, AJ shares her best advice for keeping grounded, maintaining positivity, and believing in yourself. Oh, and she does some pretty impressive name-dropping from her time on the tour! If you have ever wondered what it's like to be a professional athlete, or if you want to learn how you can use your sports background in the 'real world', this episode is for you!
