What does it really mean to take a risk without needing your name on the door?

In this episode of the Risk Taker Podcast, Ebens sits down with Michael, an industry veteran with over 15 years of experience across architecture, real estate development, construction management, and owner’s representation.

Michael’s journey is not about chasing titles or visibility. It’s about creation, action, patience, and legacy. He shares how early career decisions some that looked like “poor planning” became intentional stepping stones into entrepreneurship. From large-scale campus developments and historic restoration projects to moments of failure, uncertainty, and faith, Michael offers a deeply thoughtful perspective on what it takes to build something meaningful over time.
