I want to give a big shout out to those of you who were in attendance at the Breakfast & Chat gathering on Saturday morning. There were seven brothers at the table and the conversations were just as filling as the delicious food was. I look forward to seeing you at our virtual meetings on Tuesday 8pm & Friday 7am. Let's continue to share with other brothers the significance of finding a community that is not built on pretentiousness, competition, or ego, but rather on supportiveness, personal growth, and accountability. Now more than ever before, men need a space dedicated to finding and being their authentic selves. I don't know of anywhere else where men can be listened to, built up, supported, coached, encouraged to keep going, cheered on, and celebrated for less than 40¢/day. So let's go out today and recruit more members into this space. When it's all said and done, BCWT? will be recognized as the global standard of community for real men.

I want to take full accountability for the miscommunication about Bro, Can We Talk? not meeting this morning. I didn’t communicate the cancellation, and I didn’t set up anyone to facilitate in my absence. That’s on me. The truth is, I’ve been managing too much manually and mismanaged my time. Somewhere along the way, one of the most important recurring events on my calendar "Free Speech Fridays" was dropped. This can’t happen again. Free Speech Fridays has become a staple in our community, something we all look forward to and value deeply. To ensure this doesn’t repeat, I’m implementing a 24-hour communication system that will do two things: 1. Give the designated facilitator up to 24 hours prior to the meeting to confirm they’ll lead and announce the discussion topic. 2. If a replacement facilitator is needed, both the original and replacement must confirm the handoff within that same window. This structure will help keep our gatherings consistent, our transitions smooth, and our energy aligned. I’ll also be starting a community text thread so everyone has clearer access to upcoming schedules and updates. I dropped the ball today, but I’m learning from it and building a stronger system to serve you better. I take this seriously because this community means too much to all of us. Thank you for your patience, your grace, and your continued trust. With respect, Damon Austin Founder, Bro, Can We Talk?

Bro, Can We Talk? I'm thankful for the opportunity to build this community and those who choose to build it with me. Even if you were not there yesterday, you are valued as a member of the BCWT? community. I look forward to seeing you all next time.
