Ever had a small schedule slip snowball into awkward calls and late nights?
A simple roofing contractor’s delay at a friend’s home sparked this episode and a hard look at why so many of us overcommit.
In this episode, I unpack that story and the simple shift that turned “sure, I can do it” moments into clear, doable commitments. You’ll hear…
- The quick questions I run through before agreeing to anything
- How to reset expectations mid-stream without drama
- The three-line message that keeps clients calm while you protect your calendar.
Why listen? If your days feel crowded, bids stack up, and crews wait on you for answers, this will help steady schedules, reduce rework, and keep your word intact - without burning yourself out.
Ready to make big promises doable? Hit play and grab the small shift that changes everything.
