And we're not just talking about building great homes.\nEvery now and then, a conversation comes along that reminds us exactly why The Good Builder exists. This is one of them.\nAt just 32, Jordan Rogers has spent the past two and a half years building his Gold Coast construction business, J3 Built. He's already stepped off the tools, built a team and developed a genuine passion for leadership. But behind that progress is a young builder who's had to learn some pretty tough lessons about business, responsibility and knowing when to ask for help.\nRecorded at The Professional Builder Summit, this conversation starts with Jordan's journey from AFL and carpentry into running his own building company. It quickly becomes something much more personal.\nJordan opens up about learning the financial side of construction, the importance of surrounding yourself with good people, why leadership is about more than giving instructions, and how seeking guidance helped him through a difficult period.\nWe also get into building systems, using AI properly, managing growth, protecting margins and why being a great tradesman doesn't automatically make you a successful business owner.\nBut it's Jordan's answer to one simple question, \"What makes a good builder?\", that completely changes the conversation.\nHe talks about the sleepless nights, the decisions nobody else sees, the families depending on you and the enormous responsibility of running a building business.\nAnd for the first time in more than 350 episodes, Az finds himself fighting back tears.\nThis isn't a conversation about how big you can grow a building company.\nIt's about the person you become while building one.\nAn episode for every builder who's ever carried the weight of their business, questioned themselves or needed reminding that they don't have to do it alone.\n\nThis is The Good Builder Podcast.\n#TheGoodBuilder #TheGoodBuilderPodcast #AustralianBuilders #BuildingBusiness...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/kfWyLokmOh8IknRiu8hFWliTL287_yQe0yBgRNp7WJc/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8yZmE4/MDdmMWNmOWU1Yjc4/ZGU2OTIxYTcwOTk0/OTk3YS5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
