What if the answer isn’t working harder… but structuring the business around your strengths?
In this episode of The Window Pro Podcast, I speak with Samantha van Niekerk from Newbury in the UK. She’s partnered with her 19-year-old son, Misha — who is on the autism spectrum and has ADHD — to build a window cleaning business that works for both of them.
She handles the admin.
He handles the cleaning.
And together, they’re building something steady and sustainable.
We talk about:
Starting out when everything feels overwhelming
Dividing roles clearly in a family business
Canvassing without apologising
Learning from the wider window cleaning community
This is a genuine conversation about confidence, structure, and doing the basics well.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re winging it — or you’re trying to support someone else into business — this episode will steady you.
Clean windows. Clear systems. Growing confidence.
