Why High Standards Attract High-Level Clients
from That1 Podcast Hosted by Mike "C-Roc" Ciorrocco
In this episode of That One Podcast, C-Rock sits down in Fort Lauderdale with luxury landscape designer and entrepreneur Steve Griggs to talk about what it really takes to build something extraordinary — in business, in family, and in life. From growing up with blue-collar fathers who never missed a day of work, to coaching their own kids differently, this conversation dives deep into standards, discipline, and designing life intentionally instead of becoming a slave to your business. Steve shares his journey from laborer to high-end landscape artist trusted by celebrities and elite clients — and why honesty, authority, and finishing the job (even when it costs you) is the ultimate competitive advantage. They unpack: * Why high standards repel some people — and attract the right ones * The psychology of charging what you're worth * Faith during financial uncertainty * Raising resilient kids in comfortable environments * Leadership as calmness * Why not all money is good money * The danger of lowering your standards to be liked * Building an attraction model through excellence If you’re an entrepreneur navigating uncertainty, a parent trying to raise strong kids, or someone chasing big goals while staying grounded in faith — this episode will challenge you to raise your standards and trust your vision. Because you’re not crazy. They’re just confused about what’s possible.
