Dave and I break down the real roadmap to getting there but more importantly, the foundational principles that actually make it sustainable.

From getting your first consistent jobs, to dialing in your systems, to building something that doesn’t fall apart the second you step away.

    Should You Quit Your Job to Start a Window Cleaning Business? (In 2026)

    In this episode, we break down what it actually takes to make that jump without screwing yourself financially. We talk risk tolerance, how much of a cushion you really need, and the difference between a calculated move and a reckless one. I’ll walk through when it does make sense to go all in, when you should stay employed a little longer, and how to bridge the gap so your business isn’t starting from zero pressure. If you’ve been stuck in that “should I quit or not?” phase, this will help you make a clear decision and move forward with confidence.

No “scale at all costs.” And honestly… I’m glad it worked out that way. In this episode, I break down why growing too fast can actually hurt your business—and how staying small gave me something most people skip: time, freedom, and real skill.
