After one full year of producing Builder By Day, Ryan McNeil takes a step back to reflect on the journey so far — what’s been built, what’s been learned, and what comes next.
This episode is a look at how the podcast began as a small business venture, grew into an outlet for big conversations, and found its voice along the way.
Ryan opens up about:
Building a media project like a business, not a brand
The lessons from lighting, cameras, editing, and AI tools
Balancing real work, family life, and creative focus
How politics naturally entered everyday conversations
What it means to pause without quitting
Gratitude for Aimee’s support — and everyone who tuned in
This isn’t the end — it’s a breather before the next chapter.
🎧 Thanks for listening, subscribing, and being part of the first year of Builder By Day
