    Life On The Back 9 : Our Faith - In God We Trust

    Today’s conversation goes a little deeper. In this episode of Life on The Back 9, Kevin & Danielle Cooper talk openly about faith, family influence, and how belief evolves over a lifetime. From Kevin’s Southern Pentecostal grandfather and the roots of early faith, to experiences at All People Church, to unexpected connections (yes… even Elvis makes an appearance), this episode is about how belief is formed — and how it changes. We explore: 🙏 How faith was introduced to us growing up 👴 The impact of a Southern Pentecostal grandfather on belief and values ⛪ Church, community, and what faith looks like today 🚶‍♀️ What it means to walk in faith in midlife 🤔 Why some people hold tightly to belief — and why others don’t This isn’t about having all the answers. It’s about understanding where beliefs come from, how they shape us, and giving space for questions, doubt, and growth. It’s honest. It’s personal. And it’s a reminder that faith, like life, is often a journey — not a destination. 👉 Hit play and join us for a conversation rooted in reflection, respect, and real life on The Back 9.

    Life On The Back 9 : Educated.....And Somehow Still CLueless

    We did everything they told us to do — got the degrees, built the careers, checked all the boxes... and somehow, we still ended up asking, “Now what?” 🤷‍♀️ In this episode of Life on The Back 9, Kevin & Danielle Cooper take a brutally honest (and hilarious) look at what happens when the education, titles, and life plans don’t exactly add up to fulfillment. We’re diving into: 🎓 How “success” in your 20s doesn’t always feel like success in your 50s 💡 Why midlife often feels like the first time you’re actually figuring things out 🏡 What it means to pivot — in life, work, and purpose — when the old definition of “achievement” stops working 😂 And the freedom that comes with admitting we’re all still learning as we go It’s equal parts reflection and comedy — the midlife version of “we studied hard… and life still gave us a pop quiz.” If you’ve ever looked around and thought, “How can I be this grown and still have no idea what I’m doing?” — welcome to the club. 👉 Hit play for some laughter, perspective, and proof that wisdom doesn’t always come with a diploma.

    Life On The Back 9 : Bodies, Botox and BIGGER Pants

    Let’s talk about the real changes no one warned us about. The ones that show up in the mirror, the closet, and sometimes the doctor’s office. In this episode of Life on The Back 9, Kevin & Danielle Cooper get brutally honest (and hilariously real) about midlife bodies, self-image, and the occasional urge to Google “Botox near me.” From slowing metabolisms and mystery aches to hair loss, hormones, and wardrobe adjustments, nothing’s off-limits — because pretending it’s not happening isn’t helping anyone. We’ll laugh about: 💉 The “should we or shouldn’t we” of Botox and self-care 👖 Why your favorite jeans suddenly hate you 🧠 The mental gymnastics of loving your body through change ❤️ And how to feel confident again — even when gravity’s winning It’s real talk, real laughter, and a reminder that getting older doesn’t mean getting dull — it just means the maintenance costs went up. 👉 Hit play and join us for a midlife check-in that’s more fun (and cheaper) than therapy.
