In this episode, Kris MacGregor - founder and director of MyHome Renovations - shares what he's learned over 30 years in the building industry and nearly two decades of business based right here in Onehunga.
Kris talks through his journey from apprentice to business owner, how he and his wife Barbara have built a trusted renovation company, and why resilience, systems, and trust have been key to their growth.
He also reflects on the challenges of leading through economic downturns, building a strong team culture, and staying grounded in a suburb he still considers his 'business home'.
Whether you're in the trades, running a small business, or just curious about the people shaping Onehunga’s built environment, this episode offers insight, honesty, and a few laughs along the way.
