In this episode of the Sparky Life Podcast, host Lia Lamela introduces her guest, Ki Barritt, an electrician and personal trainer for trainees. Ki shares her journey into the electrical trade and her passion for helping women in the trades through personal training. They discuss the challenges of being an electrician, the importance of access to basic resources like electricity and water, and the physical demands of the job. They also touch on the empowerment and independence that comes with being able to do home renovations and repairs. 

We dive into the type of electrical work Ki does, mainly focusing on domestic work in people's houses. From small jobs to full rewires, Ki and her team tackle it all. She even shares a memorable job where they rewired a house with an incredible view, teaching her valuable lessons along the way.

But it's not just about the electrical work. We touch on the physical fitness aspect of being an electrician and how Ki incorporates exercise into her daily routine. And we even talk about the empowerment and independence that comes with being able to do home renovations and repairs ourselves.
