Last week I received a phone call from someone I had a disagreement with back when I worked for an architecture firm 15 years ago. When he called he ended the message by saying that he wasn't sure if I would call back. Ended up I did and it led to a possible project in my town where the client is buying a property from an old client of mine. This old project was never built so it may give me the chance to complete an unfinished project.

This experience got me thinking about being open to communicating with others that I may have had disagreements with in the past, and then realized that a project I started a few months ago was a referral from someone else I had a major disagreement with a few years back.

So here I discuss these experiences, but also dive into why not holding grudges allows you to grow in your business and personally. Hope you enjoy.

Here's a link to the episode I mentioned about a difficult client I had:
