Investing in Yourself: Elevate and Level Up

Hello everyone,

🔥 If you’ve ever doubted where hard work and vision can take you—this episode is for you.

What does it take to turn a passion into a profession? How do you overcome doubt, and carve out success in an industry that once seemed out of reach for most native people?

In this episode of The Good Tu’i Medicine Podcast, we sit down with a true entrepreneur and trailblazer from Old Pascua Cesar Balgañon II, PGA who proves that persistence, dedication, and an open mind can lead to incredible opportunities. From starting a business at 16 to launching a drone company in 2017, his entrepreneurial spirit was undeniable.

But his biggest transformation? Falling in love with a game he once dismissed - GOLF.

After years of relentless hard work, he became a PGA Professional, proving that our people belong in every space—including on the golf course. Now, he’s dedicated to teaching Native youth that golf isn’t just a sport—it’s a tool for growth, discipline, and access to places we never imagined.

But success doesn’t come easy. From working in guest services to becoming Assistant General Manager at Sewailo Golf Club, he shares how showing up, putting in the extra effort, and staying solution-focused can open doors—even in industries where we don’t always see ourselves represented.

Cesar also challenges the mindset that tribal and casino jobs have no future. Instead, he makes a powerful case for why these opportunities can build careers, empower our communities, and create pathways for the next generation of Native/Indigenous entrepreneurs and leaders.
