    From Anxiety to LA Golf Channel | Lee Brennan Opens Up

    n this episode of the LA Golf Channel Podcast, things are a little different. Wakey The Caddy takes over as host, and this time I’m the guest. This is probably one of the most personal conversations I’ve had on the podcast so far. We talk about the real story behind LA Golf Channel, why I started filming my golf journey, struggling with confidence and anxiety on the golf course, building self-belief through content, and how golf has opened doors I never expected. We also get into the reality behind the scenes - balancing family life, work, content creation, late nights, early mornings, brand opportunities, Liverpool FC, Turkey, Blitz Golf, Golf Clubber, Beyond Golf, and the people who have helped make this journey what it is. A massive thank you to Wakey for asking the questions and creating a space where people can hopefully get to know the person behind LA Golf Channel a little bit better. This one is less about golf scores, and more about confidence, friendship, family, gratitude and saying yes to opportunities that scare you. If you’ve ever struggled with confidence, overthought putting yourself out there, or wondered what goes on behind the scenes of building a golf content channel, I hope this episode gives you something to take away. Thanks as always for watching and supporting the podcast. Now go hit some golf balls.
