Tradeswomen Talk
Tradeswomen Talk gets real about life in the skilled trades, construction careers, and male‑dominated industries, no filters, no fluff.
Hosted by plumber, trades advocate, and island firebrand Judaline Cassidy, this motivational podcast features bold conversations with women and men across the trades, from plumbing and electrical to carpentry, ironwork, and beyond, who are building careers, breaking barriers, and changing what “women in construction” and “women in the trades” look like.
From job site truths to personal breakthroughs, these are the career stories and blue‑collar realities you won’t hear in any HR meeting. If you’re in the field, in an apprenticeship, running a crew, or dreaming about a nontraditional career, you’re in the right place.
Expect grit, big laughs, hard lessons, women’s empowerment, and unapologetic honesty, with a little island sass in every episode.
We don’t wait our turn, we take our space.
It’s our time.
We Can Do It.

Wendy Webb
Here is a quote that will stand out when you hear her story
Preparation + Opportunity = Success.
She just didn’t walk through the door of opportunity she made sure the door was left open for others to be able to see, create and become.
Her road of opportunities commenced with graduating from high school, enlisting into the U.S. Army and continued with joining the Laborers International Union of North America (Local 79) where she excelled. She enjoyed numerous positions: Shop Steward, Business Agent, Apprentice Co-coordinator and current position Apprentice Field Coordinator.
Her success continues to make a difference in other people lives.
She is an example of breaking your own limits and outgrowing yourself to live in your passion.
She's most definitely changing the world by just being herself.
