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.

👉 Listen now and reclaim your power to lead, even when no one else will.
