Success, Sexism & Empowerment: Being A Tradeswoman In 2023 | E12

50 Shades of Trade

In this episode, we discuss the experiences of successful female electrician Cathy Cockin, who started her own company, Little Miss Electrical and has grown it to a 9-person team of female electricians. Tommy Lee-Zmuda also features and shares his experience with tradeswomen in the plumbing and heating sector.

We delve into the challenges and opportunities for women working in the trade industry, including lack of confidence and sexism, and a more positive focus on attracting more women into trades.

We also tackle some of the darker sides of the industry - confronting common negative attitudes and practices.
