Success Isn’t About the Score — It’s About the Swing
About this episode
In this week’s episode of Diversity Conversations LIVE, hosts Eric Ellis and Tommie Lewis take their microphones to the golf course for a fresh and unforgettable conversation about leadership, integrity, and life balance.
Drawing inspiration from a recent Cincinnati Bengals win and their own golf tournament, Eric and Tommie explore seven powerful lessons:
- 🎯 Why success is not defined by your score
- ⛳ The power of playing the long game
- 💭 How to respect the course — in golf and in life
- 👀 The importance of focusing on your own swing
- 🙌 Celebrating good shots — yours and others’
- 🌿 Recovering gracefully when you land in the rough
- 🚶 And most of all, learning to enjoy the walk
Through humor, storytelling, and timeless insight, they remind us that life—like golf—is about integrity, humility, and character.
