درباره این اپیزود
Mike Freedman, host of the Measure Twice Cut Once Podcast and the man who helped Brandon Smith get his first microphone plugged in, joins Brandon for a full-circle conversation that is equal parts inspiring, honest, and deeply human. From working shoulder to shoulder with Dr. Dre and Gene Simmons to becoming one of the most respected voices in the BC construction industry, Mike brings a rare perspective on passion, purpose, communication, and what it really means to build something that lasts — whether that's a home, a career, or a legacy.
🎯 What You'll Learn:
- Understand why passion is the only thing that truly separates good builders from great ones
- Learn why communication isn't just a soft skill — it's the foundation of every successful project and relationship
- Discover what Dr. Dre taught Mike about delivering your work the way it was meant to be experienced
- Stop waiting for permission to pursue your dream — and start giving others the permission to pursue theirs
- Understand why the trades may be the most future-proof career path in the age of AI
- See why vulnerability in business and in life is a strength, not a weakness
- Build relationships that earn trust before you ever need it — because seven conversations come before a signed contract
- Recognize that you are building where people's memories are made — and take that responsibility seriously
