If you plan on building your dream home in 2025, you are in the right place.
I’m here to help YOU bring your dream home to life … within budget and without regrets.
This podcast is a great place to start (as you probably know because you’re listening right now).
The short, binge-able episodes are full of actionable home-build tips and advice to help you feel more confident as you prepare for and build your dream home.
However, if you want to dive deeper and work with me in 2025, I invite you to join us inside the BEFORE YOU BUILD℠ program.
I’m going to tell you more about the program, but first I want you to know that the purpose is to help you prepare the *right* way for your home build so that when you get to the end of it and move in, you absolutely love your house.
And the best part is that you’ll come in either under budget or very close to budget, and your house layout will be perfect for YOUR family.
MY ROLE AS A HOME BUILD COACH
Let me give you a little background.
I mentioned earlier that I’m a Home Build Coach, which is a term that I made up, so you’ve probably never heard of it (and that’s ok).
My role as a coach on your home build team is to just be an unbiased third party that offers guidance, support, and feedback.
Here’s the thing. When you’re building a house, you have your home-build team. You have your builder. You might have a designer, you’ve got a loan officer, subcontractors, and all these people. And yes, they’re on your side, but they’re also on their own side because they have a bottom line.
They need to make money and pay their bills.
Your builder will want to save you as much money as possible, but they’re also running a business and want to save (and make) money as well.
So everyone on your team, while yes, they’re on your side, they’re also on their own side. They also have their bottom line and what they need to do to keep their business afloat.
So, my role as a home build coach is an unbiased third party eye and ear. I have no stake in the game.
If you spend more, that doesn’t affect me. If you spend less, that doesn’t affect me.
No decisions I help you make, or any advice I give you are based on me getting money in my pocket or taking money out of my pocket.
So, I am completely unbiased.
UNBIASED GUIDANCE + FEEDBACK
I’m just listening to my clients talk about their decisions, and I can help them make their final decisions based on the way they’re talking about their options.
They don’t hear it even though they’re saying it, but I can pick up on it and let them know what they’re ultimate decision is. I just listen to my clients. That’s it.
I listen to them, offer support, and offer them what they are saying, because that they can’t hear themselves, and honestly, their spouse can’t hear it, and their best friend can’t hear it because they’re so close to the situation.
They are not unbiased third-party people. I am.
I also love providing feedback to my clients. I have clients who need to tweak their floor plans, and they just can’t figure out what needs to be tweaked.
But something needs to change, and they’re unable to communicate that change to their builder or architect. That’s where I come into play. I look at their floor plan with a fresh set of eyes and can suggest where to tweak it to make the plan more functional.
I have looked at hundreds of floor plans for clients and can easily pick up what needs to be tweaked to make the plan work for YOU.
So these are just a few of the things I do. All of this is part of the BEFORE YOU BUILD℠ Program.
THE BEFORE YOU BUILD℠ PROGRAM
So what is the BEFORE YOU BUILD℠ Program?
It’s your guide to help you prepare for your home build the *right* way so that when you get to the end and you move in, you absolutely LOVE your house and the layout is perfect for YOUR family.
And the best part is that you’ll come in either under budget or very close to budget.
At the core of the BEFORE YOU BUILD℠ program (or BYB for short) is the BYB BLUEPRINT℠ that walks you step-by-step through preparing for a successful home build.
Plus, you get personalized coaching that prepares you to confidently build a house you LOVE and is perfect for YOUR family (now + into the future) … without blowing your budget.
Following the BYB BLUEPRINT℠ steps helps you go from feeling frustrated, confused, stressed, overwhelmed, and unsure while building your house TO feeling capable, inspired, empowered, excited, proud, hopeful, equipped, + confident (all the good feels).

START PLANNING FOR YOUR HOME BUILD
There is no such thing as too early to start planning for your home build.
If you plan to build a house in 2025, 2026, or even 2027, I recommend starting your preliminary planning RIGHT. NOW. 🙌
The longer the runway you give yourself to plan for your dream home, the better your results will be.
In other words, the more planning you do BEFORE you break ground, the (much more) likely you’ll build within budget and LOVE your house! 😅
I plan to build (or renovate) in 2027, and I’m already doing preliminary design planning.
I have my Pinterest boards started, and I’m constantly adding design inspiration for my next home because I know the value of planning BEFORE I build!
Here’s what happens when you plan in a smart way (or what I call the *right* way) …
⭐ You end up with a house that you absolutely love
⭐ You move in and feel like you didn’t make mistakes (yay!)
⭐ You don’t want to tear things out the moment you move in or already be thinking about your next home build. Who wants that?
⭐ You’ll be super excited to have friends and family come over for the holidays or just a game night so you can show off your house (because you’re SO proud of it)
⭐ And the best part is you still get to travel and do everything you want … (you know, like go to Starbucks daily, eat dinner out, put your kids in all the travel sports, and more because your mortgage is where you want it since you stuck to your budget.)

I mean, that all sounds pretty amazing, right?!
