In this inspiring episode, Wendy welcomes trailblazer Jessi Lynn, a former welder turned construction management professional and author of The Truth About Being a Woman in Construction. Jessi chronicles her evolution from the skilled trades to launching PivotHigher+, a social enterprise dedicated to supporting women and non-binary individuals navigating career transitions in construction and green jobs. They dive into the importance of focusing on possibilities rather than limitations, the power of mentorship across generations, and the transferable skills gained in the trades. As Jessi powerfully states, "Women are building things because we're tired of waiting." Her story illuminates the unique challenges women in construction face and how she's working to bridge them. Whether you're mapping your career growth, contemplating a bold pivot, or passionate about dismantling barriers in male-dominated industries, this conversation delivers actionable insights you won't want to miss.
