Matt Parker tees it up with Rep. Anthony Moore, Rep. John Kane, and consultant Jackson Lisle to talk campaign life, community service, family sacrifices, and how golf teaches perseverance and leadership. We also teamed up with the Nightbirde Foundation β€” every net birdie raised money for women fighting breast cancer β€” so expect some real-talk about public service, and some genuine on-course moments. βΈ» 🧠 Topics Covered: Why people should run for office Balancing life, work, and public service Fundraising for the Nightbirde Foundation Golf course-inspired leadership lessons Learn more about your ad choices.
