How to Stop Hiring the Wrong People - Ryan Englin | EP 10
In this episode of Business Builder Way, I sit down with Ryan Englin—a teacher, entrepreneur, and former marketing guy turned hiring expert—who helps small businesses stop hiring the wrong people and start building teams that stay. Ryan shares how growing up with a father who could do everything—but was always on call—inspired him to build a business that gave him time, not just income. We dive deep into the real reasons most contractors and service businesses struggle with hiring. Spoiler: it’s not a lead problem. It’s a people problem—a retention problem. If you’ve ever said, “No one wants to work anymore,” or, “I just can’t find good people,” this episode will challenge and encourage you. We talk about: - How to hire great employees in the trades - Why most companies get recruiting wrong - The cost of turnover - What it really takes to become a place worth working for Whether you run a home service company, a manufacturing shop, or a small business that depends on good people—this conversation will hit home.

Building a Business that You’d Want to Walk Into - Natalie Alfaro | EP 8
Natalie Alfaro didn’t plan to open a business. She was driving to work one day in Schuylkill Haven, passing a little storefront that quietly called to her. For weeks she looked, hesitated, told herself she wasn’t ready. But one day, she pulled over. A few months later, she opened Peaceful Healing Massage and Bodywork. In this conversation, Natalie shares the full arc—how she got started, the deep connection she builds with clients, what COVID taught her, and the kind of teammate she’s still hoping to find. We talk about divine timing, learning to listen, and what it really means to build a business you’d want to walk into yourself. This episode is for anyone who’s ever stood at the edge of something new and wondered, “Could I really do this?” Natalie is proof that yes, you can. And that creating something beautiful doesn’t have to start with a master plan. It starts with presence. With paying attention. With walking through the door. I’m grateful.
