Get It Right with Undercover Architect

Hello! This is Episode 366, and in it, I’m diving into the Drama Triangle and how it can show up in the communication and relationships involved in your renovation or new build project. This episode is a little different to the usual tips, strategies, and homeowner stories I share here. But I know from experience - personally and professionally - that how you communicate can make or break your project journey. [For all resources mentioned in this podcast and a free, downloadable PDF transcript, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/366] When things get stressful, uncertain, or emotionally charged, it’s easy to fall into unhelpful patterns without even realising it. You might shut down, lash out, try to fix everything for everyone, or feel like you’re walking on eggshells. These responses often come from roles we unconsciously play. Roles like Victim, Persecutor, or Rescuer, are part of a well-known psychological model called the Drama Triangle. In this episode, I’ll walk you through what the Drama Triangle is, why it’s so common in building and renovating, and how you can shift out of these roles into something far more empowering, using what’s known as the Empowerment Dynamic. Whether you’re dealing with a tricky team member, struggling to make decisions, or feeling overwhelmed by the process, this episode will give you fresh tools and insights to approach things differently… with more clarity, confidence, and control.

Hello! This is Episode 365, and in it, I’m sharing the top 5 mistakes I see homeowners make in their renovation or new build projects - without even realising they’re doing it. These aren’t the obvious, dramatic missteps you hear horror stories about.  They’re subtle, sneaky habits and beliefs that can quietly derail your progress, blow your budget, or leave you feeling overwhelmed and unsure as your project unfolds. They’re also incredibly common, and totally avoidable once you know what to look for. [For all resources mentioned in this podcast and a free, downloadable PDF transcript, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/365] So, in this episode, I’ll walk you through each of these mistakes. I’ll also share why these mistakes happen, what the consequences tend to be, and most importantly, how you can course-correct before they cause bigger issues. Whether you’re just starting out, midway through your planning, or already feeling the pinch of uncertainty, this episode will help you step back, reset, and approach your project with far more clarity and confidence. Let’s put these mistakes on your radar so you can feel more informed and prepared to navigate your project successfully.

Hello! This is Episode 364, and in it, HOME Method member, Shauna, is back with Part 2 of our conversation about building her new family home. In this episode, we dive deeper into the long-term view Shauna took with this home, and how that shaped her decisions around budget, investment, and design. And you’ll hear how she tested her thinking along the way, continually asking herself if her choices were still delivering a better result than the alternatives. [For all resources mentioned in this podcast and a free, downloadable PDF transcript, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/364] If you haven’t listened to Part 1 of my conversation, be sure to head ot Episode 363, where you’ll hear Shauna introduce her project, and discuss how she embarked on her design process balancing sustainability goals, her budget and a complex site. You can find it at www.undercoverarchitect.com/363 In this episode, we explore how Shauna navigated her decision to go with a Design-Build builder, and how she set herself up for success in that relationship. She followed my guidance on risk awareness, and you’ll hear the smart ways she ensured clear communication, transparency, and alignment right from the start. Shauna shares how she handled the contract and construction process, and the tools and mindset that helped her manage changes, call out errors, and advocate for what she needed, without fear of how she’d be seen or friction in her communication. And we also talk about how she decided where to invest her time and energy, and the thoughtful, strategic trade-offs she made to suit her lifestyle, family needs, and values, while still achieving a high-performing and deeply satisfying home. As someone who has the benefit of living now in her finished home and being aware of what she’s achieved, as well as her key learnings along the way, I know Shauna has a wealth of knowledge and information to share with you that will be hugely beneficial for your project - whether you’re building new or renovating.

Hello! This is Episode 363, and in it, I’m chatting with HOME Method member, Shauna, who has recently completed her new family home.  Shauna is a sustainability practitioner by profession. So, what does someone who works in sustainability do when creating their long-term family home?  Well, you’ll hear how she approached her new build with intention, clear objectives, and a pragmatic approach that balanced the realities of her budget and site with her overall goals and wishlist in her newly built home. [For all resources mentioned in this podcast and a free, downloadable PDF transcript, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/363] In this episode, I talk with Shauna about how she identified her objectives, and worked to create an incredibly comprehensive Design Brief, using the HOME Method Brief Builder Template and Room Notes as her guide and template.  You’ll hear how she very quickly realised that this wasn’t about striving for perfection - which in fact can be paralysing for many in their projects, and a slippery slope in all the competing demands of a renovation or new build project journey.  Instead, Shauna focused on what mattered most - identifying her key objectives, understanding her constraints, and making deliberate, well-informed choices to do the best she could within them. We talk about how she navigated some serious challenges: purchasing a derelict home in a brilliant location, tackling a steep and complex site, managing the project as a single parent, and balancing her values with a realistic budget.  Along the way she made trade-offs whilst provisioning for future upgrades and created a home that supports the sensory needs of her family. You’ll hear us discuss how she used a Design-Build builder who handled the design inhouse and how she was actively involved throughout, ensuring she could get access to site and review works as they progressed.  Throughout the project, Shauna stayed clear on her values, true to what she was seeking to achieve, and used her Design Brief and well-researched preparation to guide her, backing herself to make the best decisions along the way.  What I love most is how this project has ended with Shauna feeling proud, confident, and content, not only because she’s created a comfortable and functional home, but also now lives in an authentic expression of her priorities and purpose. This is such a fantastic conversation, especially for those who worry that they can’t do “everything perfectly.” Shauna’s story shows what’s possible when you stay connected to what matters and give yourself permission to build the best you can, with what you have, right now, ensuring you’re prepared and well-researched to realise the full potential of your budget, site and life. I hope you find this conversation super helpful as you get ready for your project.

Hello! This is Episode 362, and in it, I’m sharing what to do if you’re not using the PAC Process - or Paid As Consultant Process - but still want to ensure you don’t get massively disappointed when your project gets priced before you start construction. Perhaps you still want to competitively tender your project? Or you’ve found out about the PAC Process too far into your project? Or your architect or designer isn’t interested in doing it at all, or has another method they’re suggesting to you? This is something I get asked about a lot. So, in this episode, I want to give you clear guidance on what you can do instead. [For all resources mentioned in this podcast and a free, downloadable PDF transcript, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/362.] Because if you can’t, or don’t want to, use the PAC Process, there are still really practical ways to reduce your risk, get accurate cost feedback, and avoid the heartbreak of working for months, and spending a lot of money, on designing a home you ultimately can’t afford to build. We’ll talk about using Quantity Surveyors and Building Estimators, what to look for in a designer or architect’s process, how to get more meaningful builder input even without a formal collaboration, and what to understand about ECI (or Early Contractor Involvement) and Negotiated Tender if they’re options you’re considering.  More importantly, I’ll address some of the common fears around this, such as whether early builder involvement locks you in, or removes your ability to compare prices.  So whether you’re at the start of your project, midway through your design, or about to go to tender, my goal is to help you feel more informed and empowered to navigate this next stage with clarity.

Hello! This is Episode 361, and in it, I’m answering the questions I didn’t get to during our recent live webinars. I hope these answers are interesting to hear, and perhaps help you feel more equipped and confident in navigating your own project. [For all resources mentioned in this podcast and a free, downloadable PDF transcript, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/361.] Whenever I host a live session, I’m always blown away by the type and curiosity of the questions that come through. They show me just how thoughtful, considered, and committed you are when it comes to getting your home right - and how much you’re navigating behind the scenes as you do it. Sometimes, though, we run out of time before I can respond to everything. So in this episode, I’m circling back to answer the questions I didn’t get to live, but that I know many of you are wondering about too. We’re covering a whole range of topics: from how to know if you’re adding value to your property, to managing issues with tradies, planning your kitchen design, dealing with appliances purchased too early, and getting your builder on board during pre-construction. So whether you’re choosing materials, talking to trades, or just starting to explore what your project could look like, I know there’ll be something here that helps you feel more informed and in control.

Hello! This is Episode 360, and I’m back with Part 2 of my conversation with builder, Anthony Hickey, from Melbourne-based Two Tone Construction. Anthony recently completed a renovation project with HOME Method members, Tanya and Paul, and as he said in Part 1, they’ve redefined his benchmark for his ideal client! In this episode, Anthony and I talk about how to set up effective communication between a builder and a client, especially when you’re a client who has invested in getting educated and informed, and you’re wondering how a builder might welcome your input and involvement in your own project. Anthony also shares his recommendations for how to find the right builder to work with, how to work well with your builder, and when to get them on board to achieve the best outcome. [For all resources mentioned in this podcast and a free, downloadable PDF transcript, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/360] If you haven’t listened to Part 1 of the conversation, head back to Episode 359, where you’ll hear Anthony discuss his pre-construction involvement, and the processes he used to set up a great working relationship with his HOME Method clients. You can find that at www.undercoverarchitect.com/359. If you’ve been wondering what to expect during the construction of your new build or renovation, and how to have a great project experience by choosing a builder who respects your desired investment and collaboration, you’ll love this conversation.

Hello! This is Episode 359, and I’m super excited to bring this conversation to you. For some time on the podcast, we’ve been hearing the stories of HOME Method members in all different parts of their projects. Some right at the beginning, some mid-way through and keeping us updated over their project timeline, and some who have moved into their finished newly built or renovated home. I’ve been getting so much great feedback from you about these episodes. About how much you’re loving these stories, as well as the people and homes in them, and how helpful they are for understanding more about your own project as well. However, we’ve only been hearing from the homeowner's side. And so, in this episode, I want to introduce you to Anthony Hickey, the Director and Builder in Melbourne-based building business, Two Tone Construction. [For all resources mentioned in this podcast and a free, downloadable PDF transcript, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/359] Anthony recently finished a renovation for HOME Method members, Tanya and Paul. And this is a great opportunity to hear about how he found it to work with educated and informed homeowners, and how it impacted his work and the renovation project overall. I regularly get messages from homeowners who are nervous to upskill themselves further in their project, concerned they’ll frustrate their professional team, or their designer, architect or builder will find it difficult and annoying to work with a client who is wanting to know more, be better prepared and informed as a collaborator in their own project. If that’s what you’re worried about, or you’re simply curious about the role you can play in your project, and how your team may potentially receive that, then this episode will be fantastic for you. And if you’re keen to understand what a builder thinks makes a great project and a great client, and their suggestions for how to ensure your project goes well, stay tuned.

Hello! This is Episode 358, and in it, I’m sharing something a little different. Over the years of running my signature online program, HOME Method, we’ve welcomed hundreds of homeowners who are navigating all kinds of new builds and renovations.  And when someone joins, we ask them a few questions - not just to get to know them, but to better understand how they’re feeling, what they’re hoping for, and where they need support. In today’s episode, I want to share some of those answers with you. [For all resources mentioned in this podcast and a free, downloadable PDF transcript, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/358.] Because whether you’re just starting out or already mid-project, I know it can feel like everyone else has it figured out - and you’re the only one who’s unsure or overwhelmed. But that’s simply not true. So in this episode, you’ll hear the real, honest reasons people join HOME Method - in their own words. What they’re afraid of. What they’re excited about. What they want to learn. And what stage of the project they’re in when they start looking for help. My hope is that by hearing this, you’ll feel seen, supported, and reminded that you’re not behind in your renovation or new build - you’re just creating something that really matters to you.

Hello! This is Episode 357, and it’s Part 2 of my conversation with HOME Method member, Ellen, about her new build and the construction process of her family home in Ballarat, Victoria. It’s been under construction for around 7 months. [For all resources mentioned in this podcast and a free, downloadable PDF transcript, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/357] If you missed Part 1 of this conversation, head back to Episode 356 so you can catch up on what we’ve discussed. You can find that at www.undercoverarchitect.com/356. Remember too, that Ellen originally appeared on the podcast  in Episodes 336 and 337 to discuss all the steps and decisions that led up to construction, so if you’d like to learn more about the design process, builder and team selection, and feeling prepared for a project like this, I’ll pop the links to those episodes in the resources for this podcast. Now, as I wrapped up Episode 356, we were discussing this idea of ‘there is no perfect’. There was more to that conversation, so we kick off this episode talking more about this concept of ‘there is no perfect’ and how you can empower yourself to still realise an incredible outcome for your project, whilst not overwhelming yourself with an unattainable goal of perfection. I also ask Ellen about her thoughts on the psychological aspect of calibrating your standards and expectations for your project with the demands a project can place on you, so you don’t get apathetic or fall into overwhelm. Ellen talks about finding the balance, especially when there’s competing priorities. Ellen also shares with me what helped her overcome her initial overwhelm in her project journey, and the importance of understanding the work you’ll need to do. In her words: “You may as well do the work well-informed”! Plus, we talk about making bold choices with selections, and Ellen also talks about what she’s most looking forward to when the home is finished and they get to move in.
