People don't leave jobs - they leave bosses and opportunities. As your building company grows, your biggest challenge isn't finding good people, it's keeping them aligned and pulling in the same direction instead of operating like individual contractors under one roof.

Discover how to create a Same Page Plan that gets your entire team rowing in the same direction, why PSR (Problem-Solution-Recommendation) should be a core company value, and how high standards naturally move poor performers out while attracting A-players who want to be part of something bigger.

What happens when a superintendent builds the hospital… and years later, his own daughter becomes a patient there? In this unforgettable episode, Jason sits down with one of his all-time favorite humans: Jake Smaellie, a master builder with a story that will hit you right in the gut. From healthcare construction to personal healing, Jake opens up about:   The emotional moment he walked his daughter into an MRI room he built.

His incredible 180-pound weight loss and training for a 200-mile bike ride. How to lead by example, not by title. Funny. Raw. Inspiring. This is more than construction, it's a masterclass in humility, grit, and taking care of people.

While credit access improved in May and vehicle prices were steady, affordability remained a concern, especially for credit-challenged consumers who face multiple forms of debt. The Dealertrack Credit Availability Index increased 2% year over year in May to 96.7 as credit unions and banks loosened standards and approval rates improved. At the same time, the average new-vehicle transaction price ticked up 1% YoY but was nearly flat month over month at $48,799.  But as student loan payments resume and that debt is again reported to credit reporting agencies, some nonprime borrowers are turning to credit-builder loans and buy now, pay later programs to improve their credit history and finance downpayments for vehicle purchases. Meanwhile, in one of the first actions since the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau undertook a more limited approach to supervision under the new administration, the California State Senate passed a bill that would allow dealers to increase document fees to a maximum of $500. The current processing charges, in effect since 2019, are $85 for new cars and $70 for used cars. The change would align the state's processing fees with that of other states but has received backlash from some consumer advocacy groups that claim the uptick is another “junk fee.” In other news, Arra Finance acquired Crescent Bank's $815 million auto portfolio and plans to grow originations by leveraging the bank's technology stack and dealer base. Other auto finance companies have also seen growth in the first part of the year, including Carvana and Global Lending Services.  In this episode of “Weekly Wrap,” Auto Finance News Editor Amanda Harris, Senior Associate Editor Truth Headlam and Associate Editor Aidan Bush discuss trends in affordability and compliance along with company updates for the week ended June 13. 

A good builder knows what tools to use and when to use them. As fathers, we need to get the right tools in our tool belts to build and lead our homes well. This message draws on four tools that Ps. Samuel's father gave him that helped to build a home full of life and strength.

"For every house is built by someone, but the builder of all things is God." — Hebrews 3:4My beloved child,You've carried more than you thought you could. You've stood at the door of your home, guarding, weeping, fighting in prayer when no one else saw. I have seen it all. And I want you to hear this:I am the Builder of your home.You are not raising your children alone. You are not holding your marriage together by your own strength. I have been working behind every tear, under every whispered prayer, through every act of obedience—small or great.I am not building for the moment. I am building for eternity.When you corrected in love, I was shaping their conscience.When you worshiped in the living room, I was filling the room with My Spirit.When you prayed at midnight with tired eyes, I was dispatching angels.When you taught truth when it wasn't popular, I was planting roots.Nothing has been wasted. No moment has gone unseen.You are raising arrows—sharp, steady, and called. And while you may not see the fullness of the harvest yet, trust Me—the foundation is being laid deep. I'm not just interested in making your home peaceful. I'm making it holy.There will be days when it feels like you're falling short. But I am not measuring your performance. I am honoring your faithfulness.So take heart. Keep sowing. Keep loving. Keep leading.Your obedience is building something you cannot yet see—an inheritance of righteousness, a generation that knows My name, and a legacy that will speak long after you're gone.I am with you. I am for your family. And I am building something eternal in your home.— Forever Faithful,Your FatherSupport MyR2B Ministries:MyR2B Ministries is our full-time ministry.

Sunday June 8th, 2025: Isaiah 62 calls us to be builder sons, those that restore paths and gates. In Acts 12, Peter walks through prison doors that open on their own, then reaches a door that requires a knock. Both are grace. Some doors swing wide open with no effort. Others demand persistence. Sons know the difference and respond accordingly. The beauty is, even our knocking and persistence is not from ourselves, but is a withdraw on deposited grace and empowerment through Holy Spirit. You have all you need to see every door intended to open, be opened.

In this episode of The LoCo Experience Podcast, I sat down with Dwight Sailer, the owner of HighCraft Builders based in Fort Collins, Colorado.  We discussed Dwight's background and the early days of his business, including his journey from apprentice craftsman in Monterey Bay to a fresh start in Colorado and how he started HighCraft with his longtime business partner Bryan Soth.  Dwight shared insights into the unique challenges and opportunities in the construction industry, including their fixed-price model and the importance of building strong client relationships. We also delved into the evolution of their office space on Mulberry Street, which serves as a physical testament to their commitment to quality and creativity in their projects.Dwight's passion for his work and his team's dedication to excellence were evident throughout our conversation. We touched on various aspects of Dwight's life, from his family and personal background to his experience in Builder 20 business groups that have helped refine their business practices. The conversation was both informative and engaging, highlighting the highs and lows of running a successful construction business. From the humorous story of a barroom altercation during a business trip to a tender discussion of Dwight's family and future aspirations, this episode offers a comprehensive look at what makes HighCraft Builders tick. Whether you're an aspiring entrepreneur or simply interested in the construction industry, this episode is packed with valuable insights and stories, so please enjoy - as I did - my conversation with Dwight Sailer. PS - I booked this conversation with Dwight after congratulating him on HighCraft being recognized with a BBB Torch Award for business ethics.  In his humility, and my forgetfulness, the topic never even came up in our conversation, so I thought I should at least mention it during the intro! The LoCo Experience Podcast is sponsored by: Purpose Driven Wealth Thrivent: Learn more

In numerology, Master Number 22 is often called the Master Builder—but that title barely scratches the surface of its soul-deep frequency. The energy of 22 isn’t just about constructing something in the physical world; it’s about building from the soul—crafting sacred architecture rooted in intuition, devotion, and divine purpose. This isn’t just a number—it’s a frequency. One you can tune into, embody, and work with, even if it doesn’t appear in your personal numerology chart. In this episode, Amanda will break down: What Master Number 22 means in numerology and its connection to the stable energy of the number 4. How the 2 energy – representing relationships, intuition, and finding the middle way – is amplified in 22. Why 22 is an archetypal number linked to destiny, legacy, and purpose across lifetimes. The call to action from 22: Delicately but emphatically, it asks us to take action on our intuition. Common challenges or blindspots of 22, including perfectionism, overwork, rigidity, and the trap of isolation or competition. Practical strategies and daily practices to work with the 22 frequency, including journaling prompts, affirmations, and visual reminders. The importance of collaboration and asking for support when building your soul's vision. Discover how to overcome self-sabotage, embrace divine timing, and step into your greatness with the unwavering perseverance of Master Number 22. This episode is your guide to crystallizing divine inspiration into tangible action and building something truly worthwhile.

You've got the vision. You've listened to the podcast. You've even started trying some Buildership moves in your school. But if you're still piecing things together without a real plan or support, you're not building—you're borrowing. And borrowing might be the very thing holding you back. In this episode, we're getting honest about what it really takes to go from “inspired” to in motion—and why dabbling in Buildership can't deliver 100% success. This isn't about pressure. It's about possibility. Let's talk about what shifts when you stop collecting strategies and start owning the work #LikeABuilder.

Hello! This is Episode 360, and I’m back with Part 2 of my conversation with builder, Anthony Hickey, from Melbourne-based Two Tone Construction. Anthony recently completed a renovation project with HOME Method members, Tanya and Paul, and as he said in Part 1, they’ve redefined his benchmark for his ideal client! In this episode, Anthony and I talk about how to set up effective communication between a builder and a client, especially when you’re a client who has invested in getting educated and informed, and you’re wondering how a builder might welcome your input and involvement in your own project.

Tell us what you think about this podcast!In “The Builder,” Bishop Rader Johnson teaches from the foundation scripture found in Matthew 16:13–19 emphasizing that God's church is built upon the revelation of who He is—Jesus Christ. This divine revelation is essential, because it's only by knowing who Jesus is that we can be transformed to be like Him—holy. Holiness cannot be achieved through personal righteousness alone, as in nominal churches; it comes through the New Birth experience, which includes being baptized in the Holy Ghost.For more lessons and sermons, follow our YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/@GBT
