Wait - What Do You Do Again?

Building a Business and a Life: Engineering, Entrepreneurship, and Breaking the Mold with Heather Wethington


Listen Later

In this episode, we meet Heather Wethington, a structural engineer and entrepreneur with over 20 years of experience on California’s Central Coast. Heather shares her journey from earning her B.S. in Architectural Engineering at Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo (Go Mustangs!), to starting her own business and finding her voice in a field often dominated by the "old boys' network." We chat about the interesting world of residential engineering, how our lives unfold in unexpected ways, to pulling from the entirety of our experiences to shape both our personal and professional paths.

Heather discusses the challenges of building a business in a culture that sometimes feels exclusive, and how she’s learned to navigate outside the traditional mold. From raising her family to supporting the local community and taking breaks in the day to enjoy puzzles and Lego, Heather’s story is one of resilience, creativity, and finding new ways to succeed in both life and business.
