More freedom. More purpose. More control over his future. But instead of rushing in, he did something most tradies never do. He got himself educated, surrounded himself with the right people and built the foundations before he ever picked up the license. In this episode Duayne sits down with Jack from Sedgman Constructions in Melbourne to talk about what it really takes to go from carpenter to registered builder, why doing it the right way matters and how investing in yourself changes everything around you. This one is for any tradie out there who knows they're capable of more but just hasn't made the move yet.
