Ever challenged a long-standing tradition just to see what happens? Ever questioned a tried-and-true process in the pursuit of innovation? That's exactly what we, Carolyn and Joshua McMahon, did in our recent home building journey. We found that just like shifting our family Thanksgiving feast to a different day, questioning norms and stepping out of comfort zones in the construction business led to interesting insights and problem-solving opportunities - especially with shoe molding!
From the emotional roller-coaster of building our home, right through to working with national builders, we've learned a thing or two about flexibility, efficiency and the need for constant evaluation. We've discovered how the rigidity of processes can be problematic, and why choosing the best trade isn't about the lowest number but the right resources and communication. So, pull up a chair. Get cozy as we share our experiences, our future plans, and how we intend to stay the bank's "bitches" for the next 25 years, all while challenging traditions in the construction industry and our kitchen. Join us as we redefine our own norms this Thanksgiving season.
