Episode 74 - Finding Stability Through Connection: Ron Hjertstedt on Helping Homeowners Thrive

When small repairs start to pile up, a home can quickly slip out of reach — and with it, a family’s sense of stability. This week, we sit down with Ron Hjertstedt, who recently stepped into his new role with McPherson Housing Coalition to support homeowners through minor maintenance projects.

Ron shares how the heart of this work isn't just about tightening hinges or fixing steps — it’s about building trust, offering encouragement, and restoring confidence in the place people call home. Together, we explore how personal connection can have a profound impact on long-term housing stability, and what Ron has learned so far through these early experiences.

Whether you're passionate about housing, curious about the behind-the-scenes work that keeps families safely housed, or simply love hearing meaningful stories from your community, this episode offers a warm and insightful look at the human side of home repair.
