EPISODE 339: Have you ever wondered what it’s like to step into the construction industry as a woman and not just survive but thrive?

Women make up only about 11% of the construction industry. More often than not, they have to prove themselves to be taken seriously. But women bring much more than most people realize.

So, in this week’s episode, we’ve invited four incredible women: our host Leyah Hostetter, Emily Reidy Twigg of Forest Glen Construction, Cassie Parra of Tru Builders, and Shannon Springstead of John Springstead Construction.

These women grew up on construction sites, learned the ropes from their fathers, and are now leading successful careers in the construction industry.

Listen in as these inspiring women share their unique journeys, the challenges they’ve faced as women in construction, the invaluable lessons they’ve learned from their fathers, and much more.
