Disagreeing doesn't have to mean disconnecting. In this episode, Jason Schroeder shares powerful scripts and mindset shifts that can transform tension into teamwork and turn conflict into progress. Learn how to: Push back without triggering egos. Use disagreement to build credibility, not break relationships. Navigate critical feedback in high-pressure environments. Stay human, kind, and effective even when emotions run high. Whether you're a foreman, leader, or project manager, this episode is your crash course in respectful dissent with wisdom pulled from Jason's real-world experience and books like How to Win Friends and Influence People and Changeable. If you've ever been told you're “too direct" or you've stopped speaking up to avoid drama, this one's for you.

If your team is drowning in complexity and still losing clarity, this episode is your wake-up call. We've been trained to worship detail but is more always better? Jason Schroeder unpacks why obsessing over every task, schedule, or CPM activity might actually be slowing your project down… and what real builders do instead. In this bold and practical episode, you'll learn: Why macro-level strategic planning is not optional. How “comfort in detail” kills innovation, overwhelms teams, and delays success. The art form of building trust in zoning, flow, and phase planning. How to break the addiction to premature over-planning and think like a master builder. From boat trips to AI breakthroughs to brutally honest field lessons, Jason takes you behind the scenes on a journey that will challenge your approach to planning and performance. If you're ready to think deeper, lead smarter, and build with clarity, hit play now.

What if your biggest letdowns were actually your most valuable lessons? In this powerful episode, Jason Schroeder reframes disappointment with one unforgettable truth: Experience is what you get when you didn't get what you wanted. Whether it's a cancelled project, a scrapped plan, or a tough mistake in the field, it's never wasted if your team walked away stronger. Here's what you'll take away: A mindset shift to transform “failure” into long-term leadership growth. How to view cancelled projects and setbacks as crucial training grounds. The hard truth about sub-optimization and how trade contractors can better align. A direct answer to a real superintendent's challenge with flow and mechanical work across zones. Why learning, not just outcomes, should guide your progress in construction. This isn't just another motivational pep talk, it's a real-world lesson from the trenches, filled with practical insights and raw honesty.

What does today's housing data tell us about tomorrow's economy? On this episode of REady2Scale, Jeannette Friedrich sits down with Lance Lambert, CEO of Resi Club and former real estate editor at Fortune Magazine, to unpack the real story behind housing inventory levels, affordability pressures, and regional price corrections. From Sunbelt softness to generational shifts in homeownership, Lance offers a grounded, data-informed view of where we stand and where we may be headed. Key Takeaways: Inventory is building, but not fully recovered: Active listings have passed one million for the first time since 2019, though total inventory is still below pre-pandemic norms. The increase is driven more by slower sales than a surge in new supply. Affordability remains a constraint: Home prices grew faster than incomes during the pandemic boom. With mortgage rates still elevated, many homeowners are hesitant or unable to move. Underwater mortgages are highly concentrated: While only about 1% of U.S. mortgages are underwater nationally, pockets in the Sunbelt, like Cape Coral and Austin, show higher risk. These cases are mostly limited to 2022 buyers. Regional bifurcation is widening: Sunbelt markets and parts of the West are softening, while many Midwest and Northeast markets are holding firmer due to tighter supply. The “locked-in” effect is real: Homeowners with low mortgage rates are staying put, reducing turnover. The current level of home sales per capita is at a 40-year low. Generational timing is shifting: The average age of first-time homebuyers is now 38, up from 33 just five years ago, driven by both affordability and lifestyle delays. Builders are feeling the pressure: New construction inventory is at a decade high, and developers are relying more on incentives and price cuts to move product. The housing shortage debate is nuanced: Estimates of how short the market is vary significantly. Some regions have a true supply gap, while others show little evidence of shortage when adjusted for population and household formation. What could shift the market: Income growth, rate adjustments, and time-driven lifestyle changes may gradually unlock inventory and restore balance. This episode is a detailed, research-backed conversation for anyone seeking clarity on how structural shifts and economic forces are shaping the future of U.S. housing.

She still believes it will remain the leader "for the foreseeable future."

“Play Ball!” – What General Patton Can Teach Us About Project Readiness. In this episode, Jason Schroeder shares a powerful story from WWII and how it directly applies to construction leadership today. You'll learn how General Patton's rapid response during the Battle of the Bulge wasn't just history, it's a blueprint for operational excellence on modern jobsites.

When Perfection Gets in the Way of Progress, A Wake-Up Call for PMs. Let's get real: some project managers confuse control with value. In this episode Jason Schroeder calls out the all-too-common trap of nauseating perfection where PMs overprocess, nitpick, and stall teams in the name of looking polishe but not actually building with excellence. Inside this episode: Why over-perfection is waste, not leadership. How credentials and certifications mean nothing without execution. The difference between aesthetic checklists and real project outcomes. Why great builders simplify, reduce, and enable not complicate. A powerful listener story that proves culture and connection drive performance. If you're more focused on dotting I's than delivering results, it's time to step back and rethink your impact.

Passionless Projects Fail. Don't Let Yours Be One of Them. In construction, critique is essential but cutting out the heart of a project in the name of safety or consensus? That's how you kill innovation. In Episode 1378 of the Elevate Construction Podcast, Jason Schroeder draws a bold parallel between Pixar's recent failure with Elio and what's happening on too many job sites: over-sanitized planning, zero boldness, and teams afraid to lead with vision. Tune in to hear: Why PPC (Percent Plan Complete) is overrated and what actually drives performance. How over-engineering risk reviews can leave you with a “milk toast” project. The warning signs that your team is playing it too safe. A powerful reminder from a real-world, passion-filled project (BSRL) that broke the mold.

This episode pulls no punches. Jason Schroeder breaks down a hard truth in the construction world, some superintendents are sabotaging themselves and their teams by clinging to outdated habits, sloppy leadership, and inflated egos. He's not calling out individuals he's calling out the persona that holds this industry back. You'll hear: The brutal contrast between Ego-Driven Fools vs. Superintendents 2.0 & 3.0. Real-life examples of toxic leadership and why it fails. 10 clear traits of ego-driven behavior (and how Jason admits to struggling with a few himself). Actionable ways to ditch the ego and build real influence through humility, planning, and leadership.

Toxic Culture vs. Healthy Accountability. Where's the Line? Not all dissent is healthy. Not all questions are constructive. In this episode, Jason Schroeder takes on one of the most nuanced leadership challenges in construction today: How do you build a psychologically safe culture without letting toxic behaviors grow in the shadows? In this episode, Jason dives into: The fine line between speaking up and sabotaging culture. Why “shadow leadership” and gossip can silently erode trust. A list of 20 toxic workplace behaviors every leader must watch for. How to protect your team's voice without opening the door to dysfunction. A practical script for calling out harmful behavior without becoming toxic yourself.

What if the most powerful leadership move on your jobsite isn't a schedule update or a safety briefing but a heartfelt thank you? In this episode, Mark Story returns to unpack the often-overlooked superpower of appreciation in construction. From walking jobsites with intention to catching workers doing something right, Mark shares real stories that prove how gratitude changes culture, boosts morale, and builds unstoppable crews. Jason and Mark also dive into:✅ Soft skills that separate real leaders from seagulls.✅ The daily rituals that build trust and loyalty.✅ How a two-word phrase can be more valuable than a paycheck.✅ And why your success at work starts at home. Whether you're a general superintendent, project leader, or just getting started in the field this episode will make you rethink how you show up, lead, and connect.

After returning to the planet's surface, the crew is contacted by Oni scouts to speak with the council again. Fida receives a terrifying truth about what the Builders left behind.

In this solo episode of Your Project Shepherd, we explore the three types of “superhuman vision” every great builder needs: 3D vision, X-ray vision, and long-range vision. Learn how to visualize complex assemblies, anticipate hidden issues in remodeling, and plan ahead to avoid costly mistakes down the road. Whether you're building new or remodeling old, this episode will help sharpen your project foresight and improve communication with clients, trades, and your team. Packed with real-world examples and expert advice, this is a must-listen for builders, remodelers, and project managers aiming to level up their execution.

Just made the leap into a superintendent role? Feeling like you're drinking from a firehose? You're not alone and this episode is for you. Jason Schroeder answers a powerful listener message from a newly promoted superintendent who's going from carpenter to commercial GC leader. If you're stepping into leadership in construction (or helping someone who is), this episode lays out the exact resources and habits you need to thrive fast. You'll hear: A full breakdown of free tools, templates, books, and boards for field engineers and supers. The one mindset shift that turns learning into action. Jason's proven “Three Habits of a Builder” that separate great supers from overwhelmed ones. Why he's training ChatGPT to write with his voice and how it's changing the game for industry books. This episode is a real-time masterclass in humble leadership, resourcefulness, and how to grow into a role that scares you (in the best way).

When the project starts slipping and leadership refuses to plan, what do you do? In this raw, honest episode, Jason responds to a powerful message from a superintendent in Brazil caught in the middle of a $1M project with zero systems and a PM who believes planning is the problem. What follows is a masterclass in field leadership, mental resilience, and how to lead up when everything feels like it's falling apart. You'll hear: A clear, step-by-step strategy to get ANY project back on track. What to do right now when there's waste, rework, and no plan in sight. Why “just figure it out as we go” is a toxic excuse (and how to respond when that's the culture). A heartfelt reminder of why systems aren't just tools they're respect for the people who build. This is a must-listen for anyone who's ever felt stuck, unheard, or on the edge of burnout in construction leadership. If you've been told “that's just how it is,” this episode will remind you: it doesn't have to be.

This isn't another surface-level interview. This is a raw, unfiltered dive into the fire – and how to rise from it. In this exclusive conversation, Derrick Broze lays it all on the table. Addiction. Prison. The grind of activism. The personal demons and public battles that shaped the man behind the mission. We're going deep into how pain became power. How trials turned to transformation. And how Derrick walked the long road from self-destruction to sovereign leadership. We'll expose the traps of the technocratic age—how movements get hijacked, how truth gets buried, and how freedom is traded for comfort. We'll talk Trump. We'll talk psyops. We'll talk about the lies you've been fed and the power you still hold. But most importantly, we'll talk about solutions. Real ones. From Exit & Build strategies to the Freedom Cell Network, we'll map the road to personal liberation in an era of digital enslavement. If you're tired of the lies, hungry for truth, and ready to reclaim your power… This is the episode you've been waiting for. Tune in. Wake up.

191 - Clay Rose and Donny Ambory (Gasoline Lollypops) In episode 191 of “Have Guitar Will Travel”, presented by Vintage Guitar Magazine,host James Patrick Regan speaks with from the Gasoline Lollypops, guitarist Donny Ambory and singer/guitarist Clay Rose. In our conversation the guys talk about the history of the band hailing from Colorado. The guys talk guitars and gear, Clay's nylon string and Donny's “Nachocaster” and Donny describes his adventure to acquire the Nachocaster and he takes through the rest of his gear. The two explain their current tour schedule and solo shows they have… and the dilemma of traveling for gigs that don't cover the expenses. Clay tells us how they hooked up with Steve Berlin (Los Lobos) to record their new album “Kill the Architect”. Clay describes a ballet the band wrote that will be performed in Denver, Colorado with the band as part of the set and a recent show they did with the Cheyenne symphony. Finally Clay explains how the two met, an entertaining and awkward story.

Let's be real. “critical path” thinking is destroying your jobsite. In this punchy, no-BS episode, Jason Schroeder breaks down the dangerous myth of the critical path and introduces something far more powerful: the Path of Critical Flow. You'll hear: Why “knowing the critical path” is actually making you push, panic, and waste time. The brutal truth about crashing schedules (and how it hurts, not helps). The smarter way to plan using buffers, flow, and sequencing. How to spot bottlenecks and fix them without burning out your team. A hilariously sharp analogy involving babysitting, fake kidnappers, and parental panic.  If you've ever been told to work weekends, throw labor at it, or just get it done, you need this episode. Forget panic. Plan with flow. Build with sanity.

We say value engineering. But what we're actually doing? Design amputation. In this short but fiery episode, Jason Schroeder exposes the ugly truth behind how most construction teams gut their designs under the false flag of "VE." This isn't about optimizing systems or delivering value it's dismemberment engineering, plain and simple. You'll hear: Why traditional "value engineering" is a lie we've all accepted. The brutal consequences of siloed design and reactive budgeting. What true value engineering looks like (spoiler: it starts before drawings are finished). A clear roadmap to integrated, lean-aligned design that actually works. If you've ever seen a beautifully designed project get hacked apart because it was “over budget,” this episode will hit home and give you a better way forward.
