Build Podcast | Episode 184: Building A Remote Job

From The Build Show.

In this insightful episode of the Build Show Podcast, host Matt Risinger sits down with Stephanie Dailey—longtime colleague, project manager, and now remote collaborator—to explore what it really takes to build a remote career in the construction industry. Stephanie shares her unconventional path from jobsite coordination in Austin to managing high-performance builds from hundreds of miles away. With candid stories about burnout, family priorities, and the pursuit of flexibility, Matt and Stephanie talk about redefining success in a traditionally hands-on field. From the power of trust and communication to the evolving role of women in construction, this conversation offers valuable takeaways for builders, business owners, and anyone navigating career shifts in a digital age. Real, reflective, and refreshingly honest, this episode is a must-listen for those rethinking how and where meaningful work gets done.
