Steve Melo from @steviejust4laughs_ brings his unique blend of Portuguese humor and heartfelt insight to this episode, sharing his 25+ years of experience in construction. From being told by his father to "get out of the house and get a job," to discovering his passion for the trades, Steve's journey is one of resilience and determination.
He opens up about growing up without a mother, recently losing his father, and the challenges he and his sister now face navigating a world that often undervalues blue-collar workers and small business owners. Balancing humor with heartache, Steve reflects on how he keeps his head held high on the job site every day, delivering a mix of laughs, life lessons, and raw honesty.
