Summary
Morgan and Ashlin Shaver, founders of Orchard Avenue Designs , don’t just build homes. They build a life with intention, one bold project at a time. In this episode, Mike and Caroline sit down with the husband-and-wife team behind the design-and-build studio that’s turning rundown buildings into vibrant community anchors, crafting East Coast-inspired homes in rural Utah, and raising four kids through all the beautiful chaos. From buying three dilapidated buildings on Main Street, to launching Leona’s Bistro with zero restaurant experience, to flying to Hawaii on 24 hours’ notice to design for the Bucket List Family, Morgan and Ashlin share the mindset that allows them to step into projects most people would run from. Inside the episode, they open up about: • Building a business as a couple without losing yourselves • Why instinct often guides their biggest leaps • How their kids stay woven into everything they create • The identity shifts that come with scaling a business • What to do when a project feels way over your head • How chaos, creativity, and intention can actually coexist If you're building anything as a family, a business, a home, or a life that feels true, this conversation will expand the way you think. 🔗 Our Family Invests Resources Explore more tools and family-first investing resources: https://www.ourfamilyinvests.com Download your free FIRE Starter Playbook: https://www.ourfamilyinvests.com/fire Follow us on Instagram for behind-the-scenes clips and new episodes: https://www.instagram.com/ourfamilyinvests 🔗 Guest Links Orchard Avenue Designs (Instagram): https://www.instagram.com/orchardavenuedesigns
