It is being told she belongs behind a desk in a skirt, not inside a nuclear power plant wearing jeans and a hard hat. In this episode, the entrepreneur and industry educator traces the persistence, mentorship, and hard-earned confidence that shape her path through nuclear power, utility training, and the skilled trades. She examines why knowledge grows when it is shared, how vulnerability creates stronger leaders, and why asking for help can move a business forward. Along the way, she challenges both women and men to build respect without diminishing one another. What happens when someone keeps knocking long after the room has decided where she belongs?

Technical education and apprenticeship programs can change entire families’ livelihoods.
