Hotline Bling

In this episode of Self Made Pod, we cover a little bit of everything—from the ripple effects of tariffs on woodworking prices to the chaos of handling emergency projects and the joys (and headaches) of DIY electrical work in a van build. We share some personal wins, like the satisfaction of finishing tricky tasks, and talk about upcoming creative projects we’re excited to tackle.

We also dive into home improvement adventures, finding creative solutions for tough problems, and the reality of juggling way too many projects at once. There’s a bit of YouTube talk—milestone moments, channel growth, and what it takes to stay consistent—and we reflect on how much help it really takes to keep things running behind the scenes.

Throughout the convo, we dig into the balance between work and personal life, how family and community play a big role in what we do, and why making informative, valuable content still matters in a world full of noise. It’s a solid mix of behind-the-scenes realness, creative inspiration, and a few laughs along the way.
