No Excuses, No Victims: Bradley Henderson on Radical Ownership and Closing the Divide

Bradley Henderson built a company that bridges the field-office gap in construction, but the story of how he got there is the one worth hearing. Plumb Line Operations founder and field worker advocate Bradley Henderson joins Jesse to talk about the personal cost of traveling construction work, what addiction and prison taught him about radical ownership, and why he now builds a "second chance" lane connecting skilled workers with structured employers. Jesse opens up about his own 10 years of sobriety as the two get honest about the long road from victim mentality to accountability and what it really looks like to make amends and turn your worst chapter into your purpose. 00:00 Turning Pain Into Magic 00:14 Meet Bradley Henderson 01:34 The Toll of Travel Work 04:31 LinkedIn Style and Accountability 05:37 Addiction Prison and Ownership 07:52 Sobriety and Compounding Change 11:47 Shoutout and Viktor Frankl Lesson 14:14 Owning Mistakes in the Field 16:04 Rebuilding After a Record 19:49 From Manipulation to Influence 22:02 Rehab Story and Shame Release 24:28 Sharing the Shame 24:52 Why the Rooms Work 26:30 Turning Pain Into Help 27:27 Owing It Forward 28:57 Making Amends for Real 35:03 Gratitude and Second Chances 36:42 Building a Coaching Calling 38:02 Second Chance Workforce Plan Lets leave the Construction Industry Better than We Found It https://www.depthbuilder.com/construction-leadership-lab Download the free PDF copy of Becoming the Promise You are Intended to Be
