Can you believe it’s almost the end of the year? It feels like January was just yesterday, but also like it was years ago.

So much has happened in the world this year, both the good and the bad.This whirlwind was especially strong in the construction industry, so we want to recap 2024 in this episode as well as look forward to what 2025 will hold.

So, the construction landscape has been tough on everyone, but we’re proud of how we’ve managed to keep moving forward. For those of you who’ve navigated this year alongside us, whether you’re still standing tall in your business or have made the hard decision to step back, remember you’ve made it through and that’s worthy of a pat on the back.

2024 has been another reminder of how important connection is. Whether it’s out group chat with fellow builders or the support from family and friends, our connections are what kept us going when things got tough. Sharing experiences, challenges, and success stories has fostered a community that’s both supportive and insightful. If there’s one piece of advice we’d pass on, it’s to never underestimate the power of a solid support system.

So, what does 2025 hold? We’re feeling optimistic.

Regulatory changes and financial challenges are on the horizon, but we’re viewing these as opportunities for growth and innovation. Our industry is poised for a transformation, and we’re ready to pivot to meet these advancements head-on.

For us, thriving in business isn’t our only goal. In 2025 we’ll keep striving to champion mental health, community building, and innovation. For this podcast, we have exciting plans for more engaging content that platforms diverse stories in the industry. So stay tuned for that!

Perhaps the biggest lesson from 2024 is that with every challenge comes the chance to emerge stronger. So take care of yourself over the holiday period and we can’t wait to be back with you next year!

Cheers,

Hamish & Matt
