LATEST EPISODE 🔗
Have you ever seen a client’s name pop up on your phone — and before you even read the message, your chest tightened?
Not because you did anything wrong. But because deep down, you already knew what it wasn’t.
It wasn’t payment. It wasn’t closure. It was another “we’re almost there”.

In this brutally honest and humorous episode, Arc. Egbeiyon Leonard tears apart the exploitation culture in architecture — the one that disguises itself as “opportunity.” From clients who pro…

It feels like a small compromise, a harmless adjustment to secure the job. But that’s often where the real problem begins. Because when you lower your fee to please a client, you don…
Ever felt like your client just doesn’t “get it”?
You’ve explained it three different ways… You’ve sent drawings, even added labels… Yet somehow, they’re still unsure — or worse, they’re pushing back.
In this episode of The Sill Talks Podcast, I unpack one of the biggest reasons architectural proje…
Let’s be honest, in today's fast paced architecture industry, talent alone doesn’t build a thriving practice. You can design the most stunning spaces, yet still struggle with inconsistent income, late-paying clients, or a firm that feels like it’s running you.
That’s the reality for many arch…
