Description

The Back 9 is a podcast hosted by Dennis Williams and Josh Mora, targeting individuals in or approaching mid-life who seek more fulfillment in various aspects of their lives. The hosts discuss topics such as starting over in careers or dating, emphasizing the importance of mindfulness, openness to change, and learning from experiences. The podcast aims to create a safe space for introspection, covering challenges like living alone, dating fears, and making mistakes. They invite guests, including celebrities, therapists, and coaches, to share personal stories and insights on healing from divorce, finding partners, and gaining confidence in relationships. The metaphor of the "back 9" in golf is used to convey the idea of a second chance in life, with fresh opportunities to achieve something remarkable. The hosts encourage leaving the past behind, embracing new possibilities, and moving forward with confidence. The podcast is available on Apple, Spotify, and other podcast platforms.
