In this episode of the Build Mentor Show, we sit down with Dan Urquhart, the straight-talking founder of 1000 Feet Deep. Dan shares raw and honest reflections on the high-stakes world of construction, including what it’s like to hit rock bottom—and the mindset required to rebuild. He unpacks the emotional toll of being in business, the cost of hiding the truth from your team, and why vulnerability is often the missing piece in most leadership conversations. If you’ve ever felt like you’re drowning in your business, this one will hit home.
