If you’re feeling overwhelmed about your upcoming home build and you don’t know how you can possibly feel confident designing an entire house, this episode is for you. All it takes to feel confident is to have CLARITY before building your house.
There’s a reason that ‘Clarifying Your Vision’ is the very first step in my BEFORE YOU BUILD℠ Blueprint that I teach my clients.
A clear vision is an essential component to feeling confident (and in control) as you go through your home build.
It is the absolute foundation for every single design decision you’ll make while building your house.
We’re going to get into it, but if you’ve been thinking about joining BEFORE YOU BUILD℠, now is the time to do it :).

This episode is a little different than my typical episode … it’s more of a personal explanation of my top floor plan regret that I have for my own custom home.
Although this is a personal story about my own home build experience, I know it will help anyone out there who is toying with the idea of doing what I did (and now regret).
I'm also sharing a BONUS at the end of the episode ... my second biggest floor plan regret :).

I recently decided I was going to try to create a floor plan design with ChatGPT.
I was looking online at different floor plans, and I found things I liked about each one, and then I thought, "Well, why don't I just create my own, and I'll have ChatGPT do it?"
I thought I could plug everything that I wanted in, and a beautiful floor plan would spit out, and voila, I would have it.
That's not exactly what happened.
A floor plan did spit out, but it was far from beautiful!
So that was a bust. However, I found things about ChatGPT beneficial when you're creating your floor plan.
Tune in and learn why I think ChatGPT can be a great tool in your tool belt as you create your floor plan.

In this episode, we’re talking about the MANY MANY MANY benefits of planning before building your house.
I see these benefits first-hand with my home build experience, as well as with my clients as they go through and complete the home build process.I’ve started a movement to get people to PLAN before they build because I know there are SO. MANY. BENEFITS. to doing this.
It’s IMPERATIVE to PLAN if you want to stay on (or close to) budget when building.
It’s IMPERATIVE to PLAN if you want to get to the end of your home build WITHOUT regrets.

Are you starting to work on your custom floor plan and want to make sure you do it right? (i.e., you want to avoid making costly floor plan mistakes that you’ll later regret.) If so, tune in!
In this episode, we’ll cover common mistakes people make when creating a custom floor plan (or tweaking a stock plan). Unfortunately, I even see some builders (and the occasional architect) make these floor plan mistakes simply because they overlook the little details.
But don’t worry … you'll have a big advantage over *those* people because you'll know what important details to look out for so you can avoid making these mistakes in your own floor plan.

This episode is a little different than usual, but I think it’s going to be super helpful to a lot of people.
Soooo … I got some GREAT questions from a woman who attended my free masterclass.
I answered her questions in a voice memo and I’m sharing that exact voice memo (unedited and all) in this episode.
I’m doing this because there are some golden nuggets that I think anyone building a house can take away from these answers … whether you choose to join BEFORE YOU BUILD℠ or not.
I’ll play that voice memo for you and then I’ll come back onto the podcast and tell you WHY I think this is super helpful for anyone who is planning to build a house.

PSA for anyone who is looking for a builder right now or will be in the future. The lowest home build bid does NOT mean the lowest price.
Let me repeat that … the lowest home build bid does NOT mean the lowest price.
In this short and sweet episode, we’ll talk about why it’s VERY important to consider more than just the bids (or price quotes) when selecting a builder.

Before creating YOUR Home Build Success Plan, you need to really think about what a successful home build looks (and feels) like for YOU.
More specifically, how you will feel while you’re building and how you’ll feel about your house at the end of your build when you move into your brand new home.
I’m going to share what most people consider to be a successful home build.
You might relate to some of these things.
You might even relate to all of them.
You might even have other things that I haven’t added to this list.
The bottom line is to take from this list what resonates with you and leave the rest.

Your initial quote for your home build can be a little frightening, BUT it's OK!
Your initial quote is just that ... an INITIAL quote.
It doesn't mean it's the final price of your house.
It's just a starting point.
Believe me ... it's MUCH better to get a crazy high quote BEFORE you start building because this allows you time and space to pare your future house down to a comfortable price before you break ground.
Tune into this episode to learn about a concept I teach inside BYB (i.e. creating a REALISTIC budget).
Creating a REALISTIC budget (that you can actually stick to!) all starts with getting an ACCURATE initial quote and then paring it down in a strategic way.

I’m chatting with Holly, the founder and architect of Hereabout, about her floor plan design process.
Holly has more than a decade of experience in residential architectural design, and she started her business, Hereabout, to bridge the gap between budget and design for people who want a thoughtfully designed floor plan but might not want to pay for (or spend the time on) creating a custom floor plan from scratch.
In this episode, we cover:
Holly’s process for getting into the mindset of her potential customers (i.e. families) as she creates her stock floor plans (FYI … most stock plans are NOT created with the potential families in mind)Holly’s entire process for creating her thoughtfully designed floor plans (she provides such unique and well-thought-out plans ... this is rare when it comes to stock floor plans)Holly’s process for getting feedback on her floor plans in order to improve the functionality for families (it’s pretty cool!)How she customizes the experience for customers who purchase her stock floor plans---
