<description>&lt;p&gt;Jonathan returns for a hard-hitting discussion on the rising financial challenges crippling tradespeople and contractors in today’s construction industry. From clients and general contractors who refuse to pay, to suppliers taking advantage of small businesses, we examine the devastating impact on hardworking professionals who are the backbone of our economy.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We also delve into the harsh realities of pursuing legal action—a path that’s increasingly stacked against tradespeople. Litigation is often less about fairness and more about manipulative lawyers and dishonest clients exploiting loopholes to dodge responsibility. These broken systems are pushing many skilled trades out of the industry altogether.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;But there are ways to fight back. In this episode, we discuss practical strategies, resources, and solutions to help protect tradespeople from being exploited and ensure they get what they’re owed. This is a conversation every tradesperson needs to hear—because it’s time to call out the injustice and stand up for what’s right in construction. 💪🔨 #TNT #TheConstructionLife #TradesMatter #BuiltByTradesForTrades #FairnessInConstruction&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This show is brought to you by.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;People First&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Whether you’re interested in &lt;strong&gt;one-on-one coaching&lt;/strong&gt; or &lt;strong&gt;breakout room sessions&lt;/strong&gt;, Jonathan customizes his approach to your needs.
