Podcasts about tiny homes

The Australian Dream has always been the big family home. But with property prices painfully high, despite slow downs, many are adapting their dreams to smaller homes. 

It's time for the St. Louis Morning Brief, and there's plenty to unpack. First up, a controversial proposal in St. Charles for a tiny home village partnering with Eden Village to house the chronically homeless, and the hosts question whether this good-intentions plan will end up like Pruitt-Igoe. Then, more on Megan Greens $35,000 settlement over her 2017 Stockley protest tear-gassing, a payout the police union is furious about. Big news out of Jefferson City: Governor Mike Kehoe signs the Born Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act, making it first-degree murder to deny life-saving care to a baby who survives an abortion. Plus, a bat encounter warning after a local man ends up getting rabies shots. Real news, real St. Louis, right here on The Marc Cox Morning Show.

Have you ever looked around your house and thought, “I want this home to feel peaceful. I want it to feel like rest and joy. But right now, it just feels like work”? The table is filled with schoolbooks. The sink has dishes. Shoes are scattered near the door. Someone needs help. Someone is hungry. The house has been used all day for learning, meals, play, work, and care. In this episode, I'm talking about what to do when the whole house seems to need attention, but you do not have the time or capacity to clean everything. I share a simple question that helps me narrow my attention: What small space needs to be usable again before we can move forward? If dinner is next, you may not need to clean the whole kitchen. You may only need to wash the pan you plan to use and clear enough counter space to prepare the meal. Before lunch, you may only need to move the books and clear enough of the table for everyone to sit down. Before an appointment, you may need to move the bags and shoes blocking the doorway—not finish the entire room. I also share something an occupational therapist told me when my children were small and I felt embarrassed about the toys and lived-in mess in our home. Her words helped me remember that a home being used for learning, growing, eating, resting, making mistakes, and trying again will look used. And I want to be clear: sometimes the best choice is not to clean at all. If a child needs comfort, correction, encouragement, or help calming down, that person may need your attention more than the dishes do. The goal is not to make the whole house look perfect. The goal is to notice the one obstacle making the next part of family life harder, make that small space usable, and then stop. I also share how Movie Schooling can fit naturally into a day when both the house and the homeschool need a simpler plan. It gives you a prepared way to use a wholesome movie for learning and conversation without creating another lesson from the beginning. If your house feels like work instead of a place of rest and joy, this episode will help you narrow your attention to what would help your family next—without feeling responsible for the entire house at one time. Scripture referenced: Proverbs 14:1, ESV: “The wisest of women builds her house, but folly with her own hands tears it down.” This verse is not saying that a messy room means a weary mother is tearing down her home. Building a home also includes the way we speak, respond to one another, and decide what matters most. A tidy room is not worth becoming harsh with the people in it. Mentioned in this episode: Movie Schooling — a simple guide for families who want to use wholesome movies for meaningful learning, conversation, and connection without creating another lesson from the beginning. This episode is supported by: CTC Math — comprehensive video lessons and flexible, self-paced math learning for busy homeschool families. XOXO, Katie

Roy L Hales/ Cortes Currents - At their June 11 meeting, the Electoral Areas Service Committee (EASC) heard a staff report on tiny home initiatives in the Regional District of Nanaimo. This followed an ongoing discussion that began with a motion from Regional Director Robyn Mawhinney of Area C last November. Director Mawhinney: “I noticed that in other regional districts, temporary use permits are being used for a variety of purposes—potentially to permit tiny homes as long-term temporary accommodation, if you want to call it that. “I couldn't find a policy, or even an application form, for a temporary use permit at the SRD. I'm wondering if we could have a report on our current policy on temporary use permits, and also how they're used in other regional districts.” John Rice (Regional Director of Area D):“I'm curious about the use of temporary use permits. My understanding is that the province is already moving toward new legislation for small-footprint homes. I believe that the Cowichan Valley is accepting them, so I'm not sure why we want to explore temporary use permits if the province is moving to make this more legal anyway. I could be wrong.” Director Mawhinney: “Well, I haven't heard that—that's great news. The reason I was interested in temporary use permits as a potential solution for housing is because I've witnessed in my community that someone is willing to offer a place for a tiny home to be used as a home temporarily, and then they have to tell the tiny home owner they can't live there because their home insurance won't permit it on their property. “I've been wondering whether a temporary use permit—typically available for up to three years, with the possibility of renewal—could provide more legal assurance for insurance companies. That, in turn, might expand the possibility of providing non-traditional housing options in our electoral areas.” Gerald Whalley (Regional Director of Area A): “So, just to confirm—are these smaller than a typical mobile home?” Director Mawhinney: “I think they often fall under the RV category because they're on wheels. They aren't always on wheels, but they often are. Mobile homes are on wheels—that's why they're mobile. But I think mobile homes are often moved and then the wheels are removed and the unit is anchored to the ground. It just seems like there are a lot of questions that staff could answer.”

Send us Fan MailA customer walks onto your site dreaming about an ADU or tiny home, then leaves because the process feels unclear, risky, or impossible to price. We want to fix that gap. From Metropolis, Illinois, we're joined by Till Buch, co-founder of Tiny Easy in Auckland, New Zealand, to talk about what happens when sheds, tiny homes, park models, and modular homes start competing for the same buyer attention and the same backyard.We dig into how a 3D configurator changes the sales conversation. Till breaks down why tiny home shoppers need a guided experience instead of unlimited design freedom: pre-designed models that stay buildable, options that don't overwhelm, and a step-by-step flow that mirrors a real consultative sales process. We also cover the practical outputs builders need to move a deal forward: realistic renders, walkthroughs, proposal documents, PDF plans, and material takeoffs that make it easier to hand off the concept to drafting, engineering, and local code requirements.Then we zoom out to the tiny home movement itself. Till explains the three big demand drivers he sees across markets: first-time buyers priced out of traditional housing, older homeowners downsizing, and short-term rental operators chasing higher ROI with micro-resort style stays. We close with what's trending in the US right now, especially park models and ADUs, and how shed businesses can add a second product line without losing focus on the core.If you get value from these industry deep dives, subscribe to the Shed Geek Podcast, share this with a builder friend, and leave a review so more shed and portable building pros can find the show.For more information or to know more about the Shed Geek Podcast visit us at our website.Would you like to receive our weekly newsletter?  Sign up on our website: shedgeek.comFollow us on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, or YouTube at the handle @shedgeekpodcast.To be a guest on the Shed Geek Podcast visit our website and fill out the "Contact Us" form.To suggest show topics or ask questions you want answered email us at info@shedgeek.com.This episodes Sponsors:Studio Sponsor: Shed Geek MarketingCardinal LeasingIFABIdentigrow

Episode 165: Solving Homelessness One Small Footprint at a Time with Dominic TricaseIn this episode, I'm sitting down with Dominic Tricase from A Tiny Home for Good, an incredible non-profit organization that is reimagining what affordable housing looks like.We live in a world where the housing crisis is reaching a breaking point, and many of our neighbors are left without a safe place to call home. I wanted to dive deep into how a smaller footprint can lead to a massive social impact. Dominic and I discuss the mission behind building high-quality, dignified tiny homes on vacant city lots and how these spaces provide more than just a roof—they provide a foundation for a new life.In this conversation, we explore:- The inspiration behind starting a housing non-profit focused on small-footprint living.- How A Tiny Home for Good supports individuals transitioning out of homelessness.- The challenges of urban development and how tiny homes can revitalize communities.- Why professional support and a "community-first" approach are vital for long-term tenant success.- How listeners can get involved in the tiny home movement to support social justice.Whether you're passionate about innovative architecture, social entrepreneurship, or simply want to know how we can better support those struggling in our communities, this episode is a must-listen. Dominic's passion for dignity and stability in housing is truly contagious, and I think you'll walk away feeling inspired by what's possible when we think outside the (big) box.Connect with the Mission:If you want to support the incredible work Dominic and his team are doing, I encourage you to learn more, volunteer, or make a contribution today.

In this episode of the podcast, we interview investor and nurse Miranda Widmeyer about her first ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit) project in California—turning a used tiny home on wheels into a fully permitted, high-cash-flow rental. Miranda shares how she intentionally bought a property with space for an ADU, used a rent-by-the-room strategy in the main house to cover her mortgage, and then found a $40,000 tiny home on Facebook Marketplace, negotiating creative seller financing to avoid overleveraging.She walks through the realities of being the first person in her city to convert a tiny home into an ADU, including months of back-and-forth with the city, the manufacturer, and engineers to satisfy code, secure plans, and work through Insignia and permitting challenges.Miranda breaks down her actual numbers—including utilities and concrete —and her target rental income, which comes in under budget and beats the 2% rule. She also discusses funding the project with a HELOC and extra hospital shifts, the power of problem-solving and not taking “no” for an answer, and how the WIIRE Community helped her lead her team and push the project across the finish line.  Resources:Get in touch with Miranda WidmeyerGet all the deets on Miranda's Scrubs2Success Community Simplify how you manage your rentals with TurboTenantGet in touch with Envy Investment GroupMake sure your name is on the list to secure your spot in The WIIRE Community Leave us a review on Apple PodcastsLeave us a review on SpotifyJoin our private Facebook CommunityConnect with us on Instagram

After the 1906 Earthquake and Fire, thousands of San Franciscans were homeless. City leaders needed them to stay in the city to help rebuild, so they built tiny homes and set up villages in neighborhood parks. These earthquake cottages gave many people their first shot at homeownership and helped the city recover. You can still find a few of them dotted around the city if you know what to look for.

In this episode of the Grow A Small Business Podcast, host Troy Trewin interviews Nando Barnett shares how he transformed Sell in Style from a small home-staging side hustle into a fast-growing multi-million-dollar company. After leaving a 10-year corporate career, he and his wife Sarah started flipping houses, which eventually led real estate agents to request their staging help. They went all-in during 2020, reinvesting everything, scaling from just the two of them to a team of 47. Nando explains how adapting as a leader, understanding clients deeply, and taking fast action fueled their growth to more than 1,400 jobs a year. He also highlights the importance of systems, mentorship, and building a strong team culture. The journey shows how clarity, bold risks, and a client-first mindset can turn a simple idea into a highly successful business. Why would you wait any longer to start living the lifestyle you signed up for? Balance your health, wealth, relationships and business growth. And focus your time and energy and make the most of this year. Let's get into it by clicking here. Troy delves into our guest's startup journey, their perception of success, industry reconsideration, and the pivotal stress point during business expansion. They discuss the joys of small business growth, vital entrepreneurial habits, and strategies for team building, encompassing wins, blunders, and invaluable advice. And a snapshot of the final five Grow A Small Business Questions: What do you think is the hardest thing in growing a small business? According to Nando Barnett, the hardest part of growing a small business is mental attitude — staying strong when things go wrong, handling pressure, and quickly shifting from problems to solutions without getting stuck emotionally. He says you have to absorb the stress, process it, and then move forward with clear action, because your mindset determines how well you lead the business through tough moments. What's your favorite business book that has helped you the most? Nando Barnett says the business books that helped him the most are Buy Back Your Time by Dan Martell, Atomic Habits by James Clear, and several leadership-focused books like Leaders Eat Last, which have all influenced his mindset, productivity, and approach to leading a fast-growing business. Are there any great podcasts or online learning resources you'd recommend to help grow a small business? According to Nando Barnett, he doesn't follow a long list of podcasts, but he focuses heavily on online learning by surrounding himself with mentors and expert content; he even redesigned his entire Instagram feed so that whenever he opens it, he only sees business leaders, coaches, and people he admires, allowing him to constantly learn, stay motivated, and absorb practical insights that help him grow his business. What tool or resource would you recommend to grow a small business? According to Nando Barnett, the best tool to grow a small business is mentors, as he believes they dramatically shorten the learning curve, help business owners avoid costly mistakes, provide clarity during difficult decisions, strengthen mental resilience, and guide both day-to-day operations and long-term strategy, which is why he personally works with multiple mentors and invests heavily in ongoing coaching and advisory support. What advice would you give yourself on day one of starting out in business? According to Nando Barnett, the advice he would give himself on day one of starting in business is to strengthen his mental attitude, stay positive, push through the difficult weeks, and always support his team, because maintaining resilience and backing the people around him are what ultimately drive long-term success.
