EPISODE 395: Most construction business owners believe that success is all about "getting it". Getting that big contract. Hitting that revenue goal. But chasing milestones can feel exhausting and overwhelming.

Around 70% of construction businesses shut down within five years. What's even more alarming? Construction has the second-highest suicide rate of any industry.
