Today's episode of The Lead With Trust Show is another installment in the Bring Women into Construction series. This time out, Sue chats with Coralee Beatty, Business Strategist and Fractional COO of ThriveHQ, speaker, trainer and serial entrepreneur. Coralee's experience in the construction industry started with a 10 year career as a building envelope consultant with a multinational engineering firm. She left to work full time with her husband in their mechanical contracting business and remained there for the following 15 years. When the business quickly grew to seven figures, Coralee realized that the business was running her life. The freedom that business ownership was supposed to offer was lost in the running of the business - putting out one fire, and then the next. She hired a business coach to help keep her accountable and to help her learn how to structure her business, increase profitability and scale it to multi-seven figures, putting herself in a position to finally sell it and strike out on her own. Coralee has since set out on her path of coaching other women business owners in construction and trades, sharing the lessons she's learned, to lighten their burden and help them reach the life they want.
During the episode, Sue and Coralee discuss her journey in the construction industry, to a building and selling a seven-figure business and eventually charting her own path as an entrepreneur and coach.
Coralee offers insights on her experiences as a woman working as a consultant in the construction industry.
They also explore the four primary reasons why women leave the construction industry, including a lack of flexibility and family obligations.
Join Sue and Coralee for this fascinating discussion about the entrepreneurial path and the rewards and challenges it offers to women in construction.
