Dmitry Shevchenko of Shevcon Custom Homes is a different breed.
Most will agree — framers are warriors. Out in the elements, winter and summer, building the bones so every other trade has something to pile into. But beyond that grit, Dmitry introduced me to something I’d never experienced before:
The wood-fired banya.
We start with his story — how he got into framing, what shaped his work ethic, and how he’s built Shevcon into what it is today. Then we shift gears.
230 degrees.
Venik.
Steam.
Cold plunge.
And repeat.
For a couple of hours, we cycled heat and cold while digging deeper into mindset, resilience, and what it really takes to endure — on the jobsite and in life.
This one was more than a podcast.
It was an experience.
Hope you enjoy it.
