Best Quotes
00:51 - 01:01 • "You're not gonna be able to have an intimate conversation that's high trust with 300 people in a room. You're gonna want to do that in a smaller lodge."
01:20 - 01:25 • "The place I would start is fellowship nights. For the folks that are looking to have more engagement and more conversation."
01:28 - 01:32 • "Begin building rapport with the members of your lodge. What does rapport look like?"
01:34 - 01:41 • "You should know their spouse name. You should know the name of their kids, if they have kids, what their career is, what their interests are."
01:41 - 01:54 • "Learn a little bit more about the members in the room because when you wanna start talking about Masonic symbolism and start talking about how to solve problems, you have to get to a baseline level of trust."
02:47 - 02:56 • "I really wanted to get a grip on my 24-inch gauge. I really wanted to better show myself some care, the self-care conversation."
