In this episode, I sit down with Tricia Kagerer, a trailblazer in the construction industry with over 20 years of experience. Tricia began her career in claims, but it wasn’t until she found her passion for safety and construction that she realized her potential to make a significant impact. As one of the 1% of women leaders and among the 10-12% of women in the construction sector, she shares her journey, insights, and the importance of risk management for everyone in the field.

Tricia is also the acclaimed author of "The B Words: 13 Words Every Woman Must Navigate for Success". Inspired by her own leadership role in a non-traditional field, Tricia interviewed 50 women, chronicling their stories across different career phases, all linked to various "B" words. Her favorite? Belief – particularly concerning limiting beliefs imposed by societal and media messages. Tricia’s mission is to dismantle barriers in non-traditional careers, encouraging girls and women to pursue a role where they find the most passion.
