It's 6:20 PM and you're still on site, fixing a mistake you didn't make. Your crew went home at 5:00. Your son's football game ended hours ago.

On paper you're the boss. In reality you're the most overworked, underpaid guy on your payroll.

Isolation to Impact is the story of Clark-a hard-nosed contractor who almost lost everything. Despite his smarts and his hard work, he was scrambling. He's exhausted, snapping at his crew, dodging angry suppliers, and carrying the survival of his entire company on his shoulders.

Join us as we walk through Clark's wildly bad day-and the simple, practical habits that got him back on track. Isolation to Impact shows you how to reduce daily friction, build rock-solid trust with your crew and clients, and lead the business you dreamed you would have by now.

Drawing on decades of experience in the trades, author and civil engineer Joe Sanfilippo delivers practical tools to escape the ""lone wolf"" trap and lead with confidence.

Master the 10 Habits to...

Stop the insanity of assumptions - Have fearless, honest conversations - Leverage your strengths - Multiply your impact - Reclaim Your Life

I live in Western New York, where the winters are unforgiving and the walls need to be well insulated. I am a civil engineer and the founder of Sanfilippo Solutions, a contacting company that improves the comfort, safety, and cost efficiency of homes in our community. Business is good, and my team is incredible. But it wasn't always this way for me.Starting a contracting business in a region where winter doesn't mess around is not for the faint of heart. In the early days, I did everything myself because I believed I had to. I was the estimator, the installer, the bookkeeper, the customer service rep, and the guy sweeping up the sawdust at night. If I'm honest, I liked it. I trusted my own hands and my own judgment. But my ""lone wolf"" mentality was a trap. I couldn't take a day off. I had a hundred ideas, but I couldn't scale. ""There must be a better way,"" I told myself. ""I'm an engineer. I'll figure it out.""And I did-but not through some clever hack. In countless hours driving from job to job, I devoured over 160 audio business books. They taught me skills and techniques, but mostly they made me realize that to succeed, I needed others. I needed to lead, not manage. Today, Sanfilippo Solutions is thriving because I finally learned to let go my assumptions, ask questions and actively listen. Now, I speak at industry events, not as some kind of guru, but to look other trades business owners in the eye and share what I wish someone had told me years ago: The secret is about doing things right and doing the right thing. And most of all, it's about forging honest relationships built on your values. I want every overwhelmed contractor to know they aren't alone. The life and business you dreamed of building, is entirely possible.
