Meet Russ Barstow. Remember the name—because you’ll definitely remember the story.
I don’t use the term “self-made” loosely. Very few people earn that label in my book, and Russ is one of them.
Russ spent years searching for purpose. He found it in the mountains, through hiking. Construction, at first, was simply a way to make a living—to subsidize that purpose. But like most of us, it only takes a couple of meaningful projects and a few incredible clients to pull you all the way in.
Changing people’s lives through the homes we build is a drug in itself.
What I love most about this story is that Barstow is a true husband-and-wife team. Russ and Sue set boundaries between work and life. They set goals together—years out. They check in with each other. Their personal finish line aligns with their clients’ finish line. No shortcuts. No favorites.
Because without their personal happiness and success, there is no Barstow. And without that, there is no construction.
I love Russ and Sue’s priorities and their approach to life and business.
I hope you enjoy their story as much as I did.

Beschreibung

It’s intentionally long-form — too many podcasts try to cram everything into 30–45 minutes, leaving no room for real conversation. John's goal is different: authentic stories, honest experiences, no fluff. Just two like-minded people talking shop, the way you would around a campfire. Listeners get to be a fly on the wall — learning through our stories, hearing both the wins and the failures, and walking away more confident in their own craft.
I’m a builder myself, with 30 years in the industry. I’ve signed both sides of a check. I’ve had major wins — and major losses . There were times I felt completely alone in this business, and that’s why I started the podcast: to make sure others never feel that way, and to give them a place to find perspective, truth, and community.
