EP 100: From Oars to Irons: Olympian Nareg Guregian’s Pivot from Rowing to Golf

From Olympic rower to new golfer, Nareg Guregian knows what it means to chase mastery.

In this milestone 100th episode of Pivot The Path, we explore the transition from rowing to golf — the rhythm, the mechanics, and how elite athletes approach learning something entirely new.

Whether you’re an Olympian or an everyday player, this conversation is about movement, mindset and the power of starting again. Nareg takes us through his incredible journey — from the early days of rowing to standing on the world’s biggest stage, to defeating cancer, and now embracing a whole new challenge: mastering the game of golf.

We dive into what it takes to pivot from world-class athletic precision to beginner curiosity, how movement and discipline translate across arenas, and why improvement never truly stops.

This milestone 100th episode captures the essence of our mantra: Own Your SSWING — growth, grit, and the relentless pursuit of better.
