In this episode, I sit down with Kevin Robinson of Robinson Outdoors, right on the jobsite, to talk through what it really looks like to run a thriving landscape business as a one-man crew. We get into the systems, the tools, and the mindset that help him keep production high without burning himself out.

We talk about how he protects his time, why simplicity wins, the trap of “busy but broke,” and the power of knowing your numbers (instead of just guessing).

This episode is packed with lessons for anyone building a business that serves their life, not the other way around.

Whether you’re solo or scaling, Kevin’s story is proof that doing it right matters more than doing it big.

In this episode, I sit down with Aaron from Emerson Lawn & Landscape on a sunny spring morning outside Philly to talk about the not-so-glamorous side of leadership. We dive deep into what it actually looks like to transition from being the technician who does it all… to becoming the kind of leader who builds people, systems, and culture. Aaron gets real about almost losing the business, the mindset shifts that turned it around, and how leadership is less about control and more about letting go, automation, delegation, preparation, training, and anticipating problems before they hit.

We talk about the hard lessons learned from jobs that bled money, the importance of knowing your break-even, and how building a team that runs without you isn’t just the goal, it’s the responsibility. If you're a business owner struggling to get out of the weeds or afraid to say no to the wrong work, this episode is packed with the kind of leadership gold that only comes from the trenches.

Because success doesn’t come from working harder. It comes from leading better.

I sit down with Ken Brown of Liberty Outdoor Landscapes this week - an owner/operator with a big goal: hit $1 million in revenue before age 30.

Ken's not there yet, but he’s well on his way by making smart moves most contractors overlook: implementing a Profit First-style banking system, tracking every job like it matters, and using tech to win back his time.

From mowing seven days a week to designing custom outdoor projects, Ken shares the mindset shifts and systems that are helping him grow with purpose and not panic.

If you’re stuck in the hustle or wondering how to scale without losing control, this episode is your blueprint.
