In this Sparky Life episode Raya Kenney discusses her 11-year journey building a Memorial for Women On The Home Front during World War II, emphasizing visibility and recognition for their contributions. She details the project's design, fundraising needs, and educational goals. Raya highlights the importance of mentorship, community, and advocating for gender equity in skilled trades.

The conversation addresses overcoming challenges, imposter syndrome, and the significance of self-worth. Raya invites listeners to support the memorial project and engage in discussions on empowering women. With support from mentors like Mae, the original Rosie, and a strong community, Raya aims to preserve family histories and inspire a "we can do it" attitude among women. We explore the evolution of women's roles in the workforce and the importance of education and mentorship for future generations.
