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.

In this Chief's Chat, Ankit Sharma shares an update on the building and construction sector's outlook for 2025. Signs of slow, steady recovery are emerging, led by improving economic indicators and easing construction costs. Regional economies are driving this rebound, with momentum expected to flow into major urban centres over the next 12 to 18 months. Ankit also highlights Master Builders' regional summits, which connect members, local councils, and industry experts to tackle challenges and share solutions.The conversation closes with a focus on consenting reform. Ankit explains how collaboration between government, councils, and industry is driving practical changes like a national consenting system, risk-based approaches, and tech use to reduce delays and costs. These reforms aim to boost productivity and support builders in planning for the future. For a clear and grounded update on the sector and Master Builders' work to support members, this episode is a must-listen.Useful linkswww.constructive.org.nzRegional Constructive SummitsConstructive 2025 Registration FormWhere else you can find usWebsite: https://www.masterbuilder.org.nz/Elevate Platform: http://elevate.masterbuilder.org.nzInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/masterbuildernz/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/registeredmasterbuildersYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmh_9vl0pFf0zSB6N7RrVeg

What defines who we are? For decades, the answer has seemed obvious: our genes, the “blueprint of life.” In The Master Builder: How the New Science of the Cell Is Rewriting the Story of Life, biologist Alfonso Martinez Arias argues we've been missing the bigger picture. It's not our genes that define who we are, but our cells. While genes are important, nothing in our DNA explains why the heart is on the left side of the body, how many fingers we have, or even how our cells manage to reproduce. Drawing on new research from his own lab and others, Martinez Arias reveals that we are composed of a thrillingly intricate, constantly moving symphony of cells. Both their long lineage—stretching back to the very first cell—and their intricate interactions within our bodies today make us who we are.

Before any structure can rise, a foundation must be laid. And when it comes to marriage, the blueprint matters. Too many couples enter marriage with passion but without preparation. Emotion alone cannot sustain a covenant. The question every husband and wife must ask is this: What are we building this marriage on?Our springboard for today's discussion is:"Everyone who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock." — Matthew 7:24Jesus doesn't promise a life without storms. He promises that what is built on Him will stand through them. A Christ-centered marriage is not one that simply includes God in difficult times—it's one that starts with Him and is sustained by Him every single day.When you build your marriage on Christ:* His Word becomes the standard—not emotions or culture.* Prayer becomes your defense—not pride or avoidance.* Forgiveness becomes your practice—not just a theory.This kind of foundation requires intentional agreement between husband and wife to put Christ first in all things—decisions, finances, communication, intimacy, and leadership. It means choosing surrender over control, unity over division, and obedience over convenience.If your marriage feels shaky, don't be discouraged. Foundations can be repaired. Today is the day to begin again, to recommit to building on the only solid ground: Jesus Christ.Question of the Day:What is your marriage truly built on—and is Christ at the center?Mini Call to Action:Together or individually, pray today: “Lord, be the foundation of our home. Align us to Your Word and Your ways.”Let's Pray:Lord, we choose to build on You. Let every part of our marriage—seen and unseen—be anchored in Your truth. Teach us to follow Your blueprint and trust Your hands as the Master Builder. In Jesus' name, amen.Let's Get To Work!Because the strength of your marriage is not found in feelings—it's found in your foundation.My Reasons To Believe is a reader-supported publication.

How does a master insurance executive balance globe-trotting, raising a family, and pursuing meaningful projects? In this episode of the Master Builder series, Shormila explores the realities of professional and personal life in the C-suite with Sarah Roberts, the president of INTECH Risk Management.Sarah delves into the history of insurance, both her own and how this vital component of infrastructure projects first came to be. In an industry that is evolving due to increased global and climate change demands, clear communication, public-private partnerships, and professional liability insurance as a whole have never been more important—but they're only part of the story. Sarah's intricate balance of career and family life is relatable or aspirational to so many. It highlights a dedication to both her chosen industry and personal passions, from overseeing risk management projects around the world to the challenges and rewards of being a working mother in two countries.Key Takeaways:The importance of professional liability insurance in infrastructure.The significance of breaking down “insurance speak” in client relationships.The intriguing history of insurance and the rise of women in the industry.The rewarding challenges of balancing family and career across continents.The positive impact of diverse perspectives on infrastructure projects.“I ​think ​probably ​that ​sort ​of ​​light ​bulb ​moment ​for ​me ​was, ​probably ​sitting ​in ​a ​meeting ​one ​day, ​and ​you ​had ​the ​insurance ​brokers ​and ​you ​had ​claims ​adjusters ​and ​they ​were ​all ​talking ​insurance ​speak ​to ​one ​of ​our ​clients. ​And ​you ​could ​just ​see ​them ​all ​sitting ​there, ​five ​of ​them ​with ​their ​eyes ​completely ​glazed ​over, ​having ​no ​idea ​what ​was ​going ​on. And ​I ​sort ​of ​stepped ​in ​and ​I ​said ​we ​need ​to ​speak ​English ​to ​people, right? ​And ​you ​know, ​it's ​great ​to ​throw ​around ​all ​the ​terminology ​and ​I ​am ​the ​biggest ​insurance ​geek. ​So ​you ​get ​me ​on ​the ​phone ​with ​insurance ​people ​​and ​that's ​what ​we ​will ​speak, ​acronyms ​just ​like ​engineers ​will, right? We ​will, ​we ​will ​speak ​all ​of ​that ​sort ​of ​insurance ​ease ​that's ​there. ​But ​when ​you're ​talking ​to ​a ​layperson, ​it ​doesn't ​mean ​anything ​to them.” - Sarah RobertsThe conversation doesn't stop here—connect and converse with our community via LinkedIn:Follow Navigating Major Programmes - https://www.linkedin.com/company/navigating-major-programmes/Follow Riccardo Cosentino - https://www.linkedin.com/in/cosentinoriccardo/Follow Shormila Chatterjee - https://www.linkedin.com/in/shormilac/Read Riccardo's latest at www.riccardocosentino.comFollow Sarah Roberts - https://www.linkedin.com/in/sarah-roberts-74005024/ Music: "A New Tomorrow" by Chordial Music.

By Stephen Bouchette - As we celebrate mothers and their natural, God-given role as builders of families, let's consider analogies between motherhood and how we can be wise builders. With Christ as our foundation, and God as the Master Builder, let's continue as fellow workers with God to become a strong spiritual

As Paul writes to correct the hubris of the Corinthian church, he compares himself and the other Apostles to builders working on the living Tabernacle. In this, he directs merit away from himself and toward God where it rightly belongs.

In engineering today, more and more people are choosing the generalist route, often pivoting off that solid, multi-faceted educational foundation into different fields. But what happens when you take the opposite route, honing in to pursue an aspect of your work that truly drives your passion?In today's episode of Navigating Major Programmes, hosts Riccardo Cosentino and Shormila Chatterjee speak with a Master Builder who did just that. After spending her early years on industrial projects, Wendy Itagawa returned to school for a Master's in structural engineering, focusing on bridge design. Today, she serves as the Executive Director of Vancouver's Pattullo Bridge Replacement Project, of which she's been an integral part for more than seven years. She shares how working with and leading teams through the whole lifecycle of projects impacts how she views the work she has completed on some of the country's most high-profile transportation initiatives.”I ​really ​believe ​that ​even ​if ​it's ​a ​design ​build ​contract, ​it ​doesn't ​necessarily ​mean ​you ​don't ​have ​to ​be ​in ​one ​of ​these ​progressive ​collaborative ​models. ​So ​really ​comes ​down ​to ​the ​relationship ​and ​helping, ​helping ​each ​other. ​And ​I ​think ​sometimes ​what ​I've ​seen ​is, ​you ​know, ​owners ​or ​on ​their ​team ​that ​too ​almost ​afraid ​of ​helping ​too ​much ​or ​because ​you're ​afraid ​of ​getting ​claims ​or ​creating ​too ​many ​changes. ​But ​I ​think ​it ​actually ​prevents ​that ​and ​you ​know, ​claims ​are ​going ​to ​happen ​either ​way. ​So, ​but ​you ​can ​mitigate ​impacts ​a ​lot ​more ​if ​you ​do ​work ​collaboratively ​because ​you ​can ​sometimes ​reduce ​the ​time ​and, ​and ​costs ​if ​you ​work ​together ​on ​it. ​So ​yeah, ​I ​think ​sometimes ​being ​like ​that ​hands ​off ​owner ​approach ​is ​not, ​is ​not ​helpful.” — Wendy ItagawaKey Takeaways:The benefits of focusing on a more technical specialization rather than generalizingWhy working on a project for the long term impacts team performance and outcomesHow to foster a collaborative approach even in traditional design-build contractsA master builder's uniquely positive perspective on working in male-dominated environments.The conversation doesn't stop here—connect and converse with our community via LinkedIn:Follow Navigating Major ProgrammesFollow Riccardo CosentinoRead Riccardo's latest at www.riccardocosentino.comFollow Wendy Itagawa Music: "A New Tomorrow" by Chordial Music.

A thumbs-up from the building industry over changes to certifications and inspections. The Government will be letting approved builders, plumbers, and drainlayers sign off their own work for simple residential dwellings. 80% of inspections will also need to be completed within three working days. Master Builders CEO Ankit Sharma told Ryan Bridge there's a lot that can be done to reduce the compliance burden on low-risk homes without compromising quality or consumer protection. Some of which, he says, are restricting it to low-risk builds, having strict self-certification criteria, and strengthening the LBP scheme. Sharma says that more details would be needed, but if improvements in these areas are implemented well, they'll enable productivity gains without compromising quality.

It can be easy to forget just how much seemingly unrelated skills and wisdom can inform the work we want to do. Impostor syndrome so often steps in, leaving us doubting our expertise because it doesn't fit precisely with the knowledge we imagine a new position demands and holding us back from pursuing what we really want to achieve.In this episode of Master Builders, Ricccardo and Shormila sit down with Salima Rawji, the President and CEO of York University Development Corporation. A theme of passion, creativity, and positivity runs through Salima's long and varied career. She has experienced first-hand how experience in the public sector can inform the private and non-profit and vice versa and how, all along the way, collaboration makes things better. Salima's willingness to say yes, refusal to accept the no's, and determination to always learn more and know her facts have led to an inspiring and fulfilling career path.”In ​terms ​of ​the ​imposter ​syndrome, ​I ​also ​think ​I ​pair ​it ​with ​the ​fact ​that ​like ​the ​answer ​for ​me ​is ​it ​never ​goes ​away ​because ​I ​think ​there's ​also ​this ​like ​desire ​for ​like ​continual ​growth ​and ​ambition. ​And ​so, perhaps ​I ​didn't ​feel ​it ​as ​much. ​I ​would ​say ​in ​my ​later ​years ​at ​Create TO, ​where ​I ​had ​been ​doing ​that ​work, ​I ​knew ​I ​was ​an ​expert. ​I ​was ​kind ​of ​like ​in ​a ​position ​of ​leadership ​and ​seen ​to ​be ​a ​leader ​by ​the ​political ​side, ​by ​the ​administrative ​side, ​by ​the ​staff ​that ​worked ​for ​me. ​Maybe ​that ​didn't ​exist ​as ​much, ​but ​the ​second ​I ​kind ​of ​took ​the ​step ​to ​grow,  ​it's ​like ​instantly ​back. ​And ​so, ​I ​feel ​like ​maybe ​that's ​just ​a ​part ​of ​what ​growth ​is.” - Salima RawjiKey Takeaways:How cross-sectoral experience can add insight to private sector work.Practical planning for the challenges of changing career directions.The cross-over between impostor syndrome and the lifelong learner.The vital importance of creativity when approaching any project.The conversation doesn't stop here—connect and converse with our community via LinkedIn:Follow Salima RawjiFollow Navigating Major ProgrammesFollow Riccardo CosentinoRead Riccardo's latest at www.riccardocosentino.com Music: "A New Tomorrow" by Chordial Music.

The Government's crackdown on cowboy builders is seen as a step in the right direction. Building and Construction Minister Chris Penk says there'll be more transparency about suspended builders, stronger discipline, and an improved complaints process. Master Builders CEO Ankit Sharma told Mike Hosking the current disciplinary system doesn't provide enough of a deterrent as it's very slow, lacks transparency, and many consumers don't even know it exists. He says this will try to improve the system to a level where they can not only address the small instances of bad performance, but also provide more transparency to homeowners.

From method variations to adopting an alliance contract model mid-project to the future of this framework in Canada and beyond, Jane's insights highlight the benefits of abandoning an us-versus-them mentality in favour of more collaboration between project participants.“I've ​worked ​on ​P3s ​and ​alliances ​and ​a ​lot ​in ​between, ​as ​I ​mentioned. ​And ​I ​think ​P3s ​still ​have ​their ​place. ​You ​know, ​I ​think ​you ​need ​a ​mix ​of ​the ​different ​styles ​of ​contracts, ​and ​you ​need ​to ​look ​at ​the ​risk ​profile ​of ​a ​project ​to ​see ​which ​one ​makes ​sense. ​You ​know, there are ​some ​types ​of ​contract ​where ​I ​would ​always ​say, ​you ​know, ​a ​P3 ​is ​probably ​a ​better ​model. ​And ​then ​there's ​ones ​that ​I'd ​say, ​obviously ​an ​alliance ​is ​a ​better ​way ​to ​go ​as ​an ​outcome. ​So ​as ​an ​owner, ​I ​think ​you ​need ​to ​look ​at ​that ​spectrum ​of ​where ​is ​the ​risk ​profile? ​How ​much ​of ​the ​risk ​can ​you ​share ​versus ​what's ​still ​a ​retained ​risk ​that ​you ​need ​to ​retain? ​As ​an ​owner, ​you ​can't ​push ​everything ​onto ​a ​contract.” - Jane OgilvieKey Takeaways:The importance of having a legal framework to support collaboration in projects.The demographic differences in the soft skills that best serve collaborative contract participants.The benefits of combining and coordinating multiple alliances in a multi-discipline, large-scale project.How alliance contracts can take project value beyond capital cost.How to determine the ideal methodology for different types of projects.The conversation doesn't stop here—connect and converse with our community via LinkedIn:Follow Navigating Major ProgrammesFollow Riccardo CosentinoFollow Jane OgilvieRead Riccardo's latest a www.riccardocosentino.com Music: "A New Tomorrow" by Chordial Music.

In this episode of Navigating Major Programmes, Riccardo Cosentino and co-host Shormila Chatterjee sit down with Melissa DeMarco, a seasoned construction and infrastructure leader with a PhD in construction management. With over 15 years of industry experience, Melissa has led projects across industrial, institutional, mining, and infrastructure sectors. Currently a partner at Accuracy, a boutique consulting firm, she has played a pivotal role in expanding the company's infrastructure and energy practice in Canada and globally. She delves into her academic journey, including her groundbreaking PhD research on global project networks, which allowed her to work with major industry leaders and analyze the mindset shifts required for success in complex, multi-location projects."People think of construction as a hard science, but then I think the angle that you took, which is sort of the same angle that I studied on, it's a social science, because ultimately there's so many people, and as soon as you have an aggregation of so many people, it then becomes a social environment, rather than a hardcore technical environment." – Melissa DeMarcoKey Takeaways:Melissa's career path from academia to industry has shaped her unique approach to infrastructure leadership.Success in major projects relies on both technical expertise and the ability to manage people effectively.Building a business from the ground up requires a mix of strategic vision, resilience, and strong relationships.Advancing in male-dominated industries takes both hard work and the confidence to advocate for leadership opportunities.The conversation doesn't stop here—connect and converse with our community via LinkedIn:Follow Navigating Major ProgrammesFollow Riccardo CosentinoFollow Shormila ChatterjeeFollow Melissa Di MarcoRead Riccardo's latest at www.riccardocosentino.com Music: "A New Tomorrow" by Chordial Music.

Er war verehrt und gefürchtet. Den Stadtplaner Robert Moses nennt man bis heute den "Master Builder" New Yorks. Er galt als ebenso arrogant wie brillant, als visionär und rücksichtslos. 44 Jahre lang konnte er die Metropole mit gewaltigen und umstrittenen Bauprojekten wie kein anderer im Alleingang formen. Von Florian Kummert (BR 2021)

That's it. My definition of project management is maximizing the result with the resources you have and using them in the best combination—the right capacity and to the right objective and the needs that you have to fulfill, and not detracting from that. And this is what it is about. So for me, it's always been a passion. I said I'm a builder. And of course, I've practiced infrastructure all my career because, for me, it was a way to deliver value, value for society. I'm a bit of an idealist, but I think that society needs value, and we're there to deliver value." – Chantal Sorel Key TakeawaysHow resilience and expertise helped Chantal navigate leadership in traditionally male-dominated industries.Why delivering value through infrastructure projects requires balancing strategy, collaboration, and societal impact.How global experience and adaptability shape effective project management practices.The evolving role of technology, including AI, in addressing the complexities of modern mega-projects.The conversation doesn't stop here—connect and converse with our community via LinkedIn:Follow Navigating Major ProgrammesFollow Riccardo CosentinoFollow Chantal Sorel Follow Shormila ChatterjeeRead Riccardo's latest at www.riccardocosentino.com Music: "A New Tomorrow" by Chordial Music.
