    Quick Tips to Deal With Despair, Rage, and Injustice

    Running a business inherently feels isolating. There are days where nothing goes right, nobody understands what you’re carrying, and the pressure turns into frustration… or worse. In this episode, I share three simple ways to deal with those moments so you don’t let a bad day turn into bad decisions that you regret later.

    A Tiny CONEXPO 2026 Debrief

    I see people spend thousands to attend CONEXPO just to watch it burn. Wandering booths, collecting swag, and calling it “networking” but coming home emptyhanded. This episode is a few thoughts about where the real value of a conference or convention is, what most people get wrong, and how to stop treating work trips like vacations.

    The Great Time Evaporator: Meetings

    In this episode, I share some observations about meetings. The four real reasons to have one, why most meetings don’t need to exist, and how they quietly destroy your schedule. We’ll also talk about how simple tools and technology can replace a surprising number of conversations, and actually can often be more effective. Question for you as you think about your own meetings: What could be improved, reduced, or eliminated?

    Where Does Conflict Come From?

    In this episode, I share a personal story about a time I created unclear expectations for a new role and got to deal with the consequences of it. It’s an observation about why even capable, well-intentioned people struggle when “good” isn’t clearly defined, especially early on. You’ll also hear one of my kids in the background. No extra charge.

    When All Roads Lead To...

    As a business grows, more and more decisions, questions, and responsibility to route back to one person. Maybe you. In this episode, I share an observation I keep seeing when good companies start to feel heavier to run. Nothing is broken, but when all roads lead to one person, growth just turns into pressure. I make a recommendation for how to make this easier based on what I've seen work for others.

    Welcome to Field Notes: Episode 001

    I talk with contractors across North America, and the same patterns keep showing up. Pressure, responsibility, and decisions that feel heavier than they should. Field Notes by Ground Crew is a place to capture those observations. Not advice, just notes on how I’m seeing good contractors run their companies. Obviously nothing from peer group meetings is ever shared. Those conversations are private. Instead, we'll look at patterns and themes across companies that are on the way from good to great and hopefully offer a little encouragement for those on the journey. This episode sets the foundation for what to expect.
