Richard Miller returns to the Shed Geek podcast, bringing with him a wealth of experience and stories that weave together personal ambition and the power of community. As he navigates the complex world of managing a SmartPay rentals portfolio while co-running a small business with his son, Richard also embarks on the daunting task of building a new home in southern Missouri. Highlights include his innovative use of electric radiant heaters and how his construction background informs his unique approach to design. Richard’s enthusiasm is infectious as he shares the trials and triumphs of reaching his dream home while preparing to say goodbye to Ohio.
This episode takes a heartfelt turn as we reflect on the spirit of community through the legacy of our dear friend, Kenny Schlabach. By transforming a multipurpose shop into a buzzing hub for barbecues and gatherings, we celebrate the connections forged through shared projects. Kenny's influence extends to an incredible house-building event, reminiscent of traditional barn-raisings, where over a hundred friends and strangers from across the U.S. and Canada joined forces. These experiences underscore the importance of opening our doors to others, where the act of coming together becomes more enriching than any physical structure.
We also shine a light on the essential values of respect and genuine care, drawing from examples like the Stover brothers and Richard’s own impact in the shed industry. Their stories illustrate how embracing individuality and fostering collaboration can redefine success as something deeper than material wins. This episode leaves listeners with a message of hope and the transformative power of showing up for others. As we weave together personal anecdotes and broader societal reflections, we celebrate the bonds that unite us all, encouraging listeners to carry forward the spirit of community in their own lives.
