Nailing It: Building a Life You’re Proud Of – with Aidan McCoard (Builder)

In this episode, we sit down with Aidan McCoard, a site foreman who got into the trades young and never looked back — building a career he genuinely loves from the ground up.

Aidan shares how he followed his passion for the outdoors — from rugby, fishing and working with his hands to trying out multiple summer jobs to figure out what really fit. With a strong work ethic and a natural way with people, he’s found his place leading teams on site, solving problems, and building with pride.

We talk about how he uses skills like maths in real, practical ways every day, the lessons he's learned from the job site, and the big goals he has for himself in business. If you’re someone who values hands-on learning, strong leadership, or just making things happen on your own terms, Aidan’s story is one that’ll definitely hit.
