Build To Rise Podcast Welcome to Build To Rise, where we’re all about building — buildings, careers, wealth, and mindset. We started this show because trades and hands-on work often get overlooked compared to the push for college and white-collar jobs, and we’re here to show the real opportunities in construction, trades, and real estate. Each week, we bring on guests from the trades, construction, and real estate world — from journeymen to builders, entrepreneurs, and investors — to share strategies for making money, growing your business, and investing wisely. We also dig into the mindset it takes to succeed, level up, and rise in your craft and life. All of it comes with a fun, no-BS vibe for the boys — raw, uncensored, real conversations from the job site and beyond. Grab a cold one, tune in, and start building to rise — in your work, your wealth, and yourself.
