Stop Trying To Stay Calm | Always Lifting Ep. 17

Stephanie Meadow is a professional golfer from Northern Ireland competing on the LPGA Tour since 2015. She finished 3rd at the U.S. Women's Open in her very first professional start, represented Ireland at three consecutive Olympic Games, and is a four-time All-American from the University of Alabama. In this conversation, Stephanie shares what it took to uproot her life at 14, how she keeps competing at the highest level a decade later, and why turning up the intensity — not calming down — changed her game. ⏱️ Chapters: 0:00 Introduction 2:20 How Dad Started It All 4:38 Moving to the US 8:57 Team Golf at Alabama 11:50 Life on the LPGA Tour 15:01 Meeting Her Husband on Tour 18:35 The Right People Around You 20:34 The Heather Farr Award 23:26 Rio, Tokyo & Paris 29:10 Irish Traditions That Travel 31:19 Why Rest Makes You Better 35:37 Strength Training That Changed Everything 39:00 The Putting Drill 43:25 The Parking Lot Moment 47:35 Outro 🔗 Connect with Stephanie: 👤 Facebook: @stephanie.meadow 📸 Instagram: @stephmeadow20 📌 Connect with Karen & Always Lifting: 🌐 Website: https://karennorheim.com/ 📸 Instagram: @alwaysliftneverquit 👤 Facebook: @AlwaysLiftingPodcast Subscribe for more episodes and remember to always lift.
