Thank you to Sgt Sue "Salty Sarge" Harvey and her service dog Willow of "Driving Force"/ "Front Line Fairways" for your round of golf that was part of the 11th Annual Invisible Wounds National Mental Wellness Conference for First Responders and Clinicians Tuesday October 4-5-6, 2026 in Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario.

The question of "What if resilience could be trained before the pressure hits?" was answered by Sue for the participating golfers at the Royal Niagara Golf Club.

Sue provided a live demonstration of how mindfulness,sport psychology and golf can build practical skills for life under pressure as she described how the golf course becomes a training ground for resetting after mistakes, managing emotions, controlling attention, and performing through adversity.
