That's what we do learn as we grow because we don't know how to do a lot of the things that we're doing.” [00:05:34][00:08:40] “Google culture is a German thing, been around for, I don't know, thousands of years or whatever, but it's the process of, you know, burying would ideally like partially rotted or a mixture of kind of rotted and non-hardwoods.” [00:08:57][00:14:06] “I found that I got to meet many of my neighbours simply by waving as they, you know, someone drove by. It's like just. Just that simple process. It goes from that to then eventually someone's maybe they're on foot as opposed to just driving by.” [00:14:21][00:18:13] “Reach out to your neighbours. Like, don't just take your snow blower out, clear your driveway when your neighbour, you know, can't even get out with a shovel or, you know, whatever, help someone out.” [00:18:21][00:20:11] “Sharing our story in terms of how to really foster and grow, continue to grow a strong relationship built upon what is really just one word. And that's appreciation.” [00:20:29][00:21:24] “Appreciation is the very base level even before love, right? Because you can love someone, but if you don't feel appreciated. It. It will damage that relationship.” [00:21:36][00:26:56] “I'm very slow to want to change something, and it's frustrating for me. I'll be honest with you. It's very frustrating for me. When change is happening around me, I feel like I spin. I'm out of control.” [00:27:08]Resources Fly The Coop PodcastConnect with SteveLinkedInConnect with Carrie Ann CarterYouTubeFacebook WebsiteCall to ActionIf you enjoyed this podcast and want to support us, please subscribe on the platform you listen to podcasts from, leave a review and share with your friends.
