Builder Resilience | Building Mental Toughness in Construction Leadership | Nick Schiffer & Tyler Grace

In this episode, Nick & Tyler talk through the emotional side of building a business — the doubt, the grind, and the quiet moments where it feels like nothing is working. Inspired by a post that hits close to home, they open up about the mental weight of leadership, how to tell when "hard" is part of the process or a sign to pivot, and why success comes not from certainty, but from showing up anyway.
