BuildHERS Club

Every career starts somewhere.

For Adger Colley, it started with a fascination for construction at a young age. That curiosity grew into a career built on relationships, mentorship and a passion for helping others succeed.

This week on BuildHERS Club, Adger joins Teresa and Xanica to discuss workforce development, building your network and why investing in people is one of the most important things we can do for the future of our industry.

Construction is human, and that’s why we love it.

This week, we sat down with Eason Maykus of Maykus Homes to talk about family business, the people who helped shape his career and why passing knowledge on matters. Whether it’s encouraging someone to join the trades or helping women find their place in the industry, mentorship leaves a lasting impact.

Construction is an industry with a place for everyone to succeed. It is not all hard hats and stereotypes. The people you meet and the opportunities you find along the way might surprise you.

Attention to detail, dedication, communication, and a willingness to learn are just a few of the qualities that help people thrive in this industry.

This week, we sat down with Michael Turner of Classic Urban Homes, Turner2 Renovations, and Maintain Your Home to discuss what it takes to build a successful business, lead a team, and create opportunities for others.

No, your eyes aren’t deceiving you. 👀 This month on BuildHERS Club, we’re sitting down with male mentors in the construction industry who have helped build the foundation for future generations of women in the field.

This week, we’re joined by Award Winning Dallas Builder, Michael Turner of Classic Urban Homes, Turner2 Renovations, and Maintain Your Home LLC to discuss what really makes a successful builder. Spoiler alert: it’s not just craftsmanship. It’s communication, honesty, accountability, and treating people with respect.

Whether you’re building a home, designing interiors, installing HVAC systems, raising a family, or navigating a marriage, success comes from teamwork. Homebuilding is no different.

Tune in to hear Michael’s perspective on leadership, mentorship, and the values that create lasting success in construction and beyond.
