From Augusta to Tacoma
<p>🎙️ <strong>Episode 7 — From Augusta to Tacoma</strong></p><p>In Episode 7, we welcome our very first guest: <strong>Robert Silky</strong>, Golf & Business Operations Coordinator at Meadow Park Golf Course in Tacoma, Washington. A PGA Member with experience at Gold Mountain, Chambers Bay, and Augusta National, Robert shares his big “why,” what keeps him grounded, and how golf can be a vehicle for leadership, community, and connection.</p><p>This episode also marks a shift in how we edit and share this podcast. We're moving away from polished perfection and leaning into a more real and human approach. You may hear a mic glitch, a bit of echo, or a few unfiltered moments—because this is Dakota’s first time editing three voices, and also because life doesn’t always come with clean audio.</p><p>We talk about:</p><ul><li><p>Robert’s path from Augusta to Tacoma</p></li><li><p>Community-building through golf operations</p></li><li><p>Introspection, storytelling, and leading with purpose</p></li><li><p>Tournaments and their impact</p></li><li><p>Par, handicap, and the math of play</p></li><li><p>A few tangents (Roman Empires, fake ads, and more)</p></li><li><p>Taking up space and giving ourselves permission to be learning</p></li></ul><p>This episode also comes after a short break to care for mental health and family—especially Dakota’s dad, whose love of golf helped shape the heart of this show.</p><p>We’re learning, growing, and grateful you’re here for it.</p><p></p>

Baby Podcast, Big Conversations Ep. 6
<p>Episode 6 is here 'Baby Podcast, Big Conversations'—and we’re back on the mic after a little break, with more questions, reflections, and a healthy dose of chaos.</p><p>We talk about kids asking big questions in golf class (thanks to our course’s new Relox Robot Picker), sustainability in the sport, and Dakota’s upcoming PAT exam in September. From there, Glenn asks, “What are we learning through Chip-N-Chat?”—then avoids answering his own question with a detour into the zombie apocalypse.</p><p>Eventually, we dig deep. We talk about the importance of storytelling, the “boom” golf is experiencing, and how this game helps us connect—with each other and ourselves (cue the eye roll). Glenn shares a tough experience on the course, and we reflect on sharing the good, the bad, and the ugly.</p><p>We touch on podcast goals, the world around us, and the power of saying something—even if it’s uncomfortable. So we pause. We end with a moment of silence—and Glenn, of course, forgetting we were still recording.</p><p>It’s real. It’s messy. It’s us.</p>
