Taking on a massive restoration project like my historic factory is no easy feat. The building always needs something—usually something urgent—and the demands can feel overwhelming. In this video, I share my strategy for staying motivated and avoiding burnout by incorporating fun, creative projects into the process. These "food for the soul" moments not only re-energize me but also help me see the bigger picture of this challenging journey.
