From working out of a Mazda 3 with a paper diary to running a team with 5 vans, 3 A-grades, and a game-changing admin — Lani’s journey is a raw look at what it really takes to grow a trade business.
In this episode, Lani opens up about the setbacks of raising a young family while building a business, the mistakes she made with hiring, and the turning point that freed her up to actually scale.
She shares how culture, RDOs, and team bonding have helped her keep staff for 4+ years, why finding the right admin changed everything, and how she’s now building a business that supports both her crew and her life as a present parent.
If you’ve ever felt stuck in the grind or guilty about choosing between family and business, Lani’s story proves that change is possible with the right support and systems.
