This episode might be one of my all-time favorites with special Guest Courtney Winstone of The Salvaged Woodshop in the UK. Imagine one episode that somehow discusses personal growth, furniture reupholstering, sustainability, roof replacement and moving to the Philipines all in one story. Buckle up. This is a beautiful journey.
