His focus is on client collaboration and sustainable design. Joe has worked on around 10 projects a year for over a decade, from design to construction.

But the longer you wait, the more chances you might miss. Taking action helps you learn as you go. You don't need to have it all figured out — just get started, and deal with things as they come.Why Building Relationships MattersAt first, networking can feel awkward. But once you start meeting people, it gets easier — and it can really help your business. Talking to others, sharing stories, and asking for advice can lead to new ideas, referrals, and work. You don't have to do it all alone — people want to help.Trusting Your Gut with ClientsSometimes you just know when a client doesn't feel right. If you ignore that feeling, it can lead to stress, wasted time, and low energy. Be picky. Set clear rules from the start. When you work with good people, your projects go better and you feel happier too.Links Mentioned In The Episode...Visit Joe's practice websiteConnect with Joe on LinkedIn—--Want to explore podcasting for your business?

Behind every success lies a story of resilience, grit, and growth.
In this episode of The Everyday Millionaire Podcast, host Patrick Francey interviews Rod Schulhauser, a professional engineer and entrepreneur, to discuss his innovative concept, The Self Funding House®, and his unique approach to entrepreneurship called “implementeering.” Rod explains how his career shifted from corporate engineering to helping high-performing entrepreneurs realize their visions by addressing common entrepreneurial traps, such as time constraints and operational inefficiencies. Rod's The Self Funding House® initiative aims to tackle housing affordability by rethinking homeownership. The concept encourages prospective buyers, especially younger generations, to view their homes as assets that generate income, such as through basement suites or additional rental units. Rod and his co-author, Derek Lobo, have expanded this idea into a broader framework by collaborating with developers, municipalities, and financial institutions to create homes pre-designed with rental income potential. This integrated approach educates buyers on managing rentals and finances while aligning industry stakeholders to address affordability. The conversation delves into the mindset shifts required for success. Patrick and Rod emphasize the importance of aligning personal values with professional endeavors, taking ownership of challenges, and learning through struggle. They reflect on how a clear vision, coupled with persistence and adaptability, can transform not only businesses but also lives. The discussion touches on leadership as a learnable skill and highlights the critical role of mentorship, self-awareness, and values-driven decisions in achieving long-term success. Rod's ultimate goal is to empower future generations to achieve financial security and independence through real estate, while fostering entrepreneurial thinking. The episode closes with gratitude for shared values, meaningful work, and opportunities to inspire others. Patrick encourages listeners to embrace challenges as opportunities for growth and transformation.
