This week marks number twenty six of the journey from twenty million to one billion, and the theme is simple. Let go so you can grow.

Justin shares why the past year forced a reset, how K and D navigated one point two to one point five million in lost profitability, and what it looked like to rebuild the leadership team from the inside out. You will hear the story behind new leaders joining the table, how culture was protected through major shifts, and why stepping back is now the most important move for long term scale.

Inside the episode • The biggest lesson of the week: you cannot chase perfection • Why embracing your team’s mistakes accelerates growth • How restructuring created space for real leadership to emerge • Introducing new leaders Brian Gates and Andy Howley and the impact they are already making • The full breakdown of the new eight person K and D leadership team • Why CEOs get stuck acting like COOs and how that stalls growth • The concept of taking back the CEO role and giving the keys back to the team • A powerful quote from Justin’s early days in construction and how it still guides him • The model behind sustainable happiness and why you get out what you put in • A challenge for you as we close the year: define what you desire in twenty twenty six

Justin closes with a message about self trust, living the life you actually want, and going all in on yourself and the people around you.

New week. New clarity. New momentum.
