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.

Union Made, Union Strong: Chelsea Fenton
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Grab your hard hat and your attitude, because this episode is serving steel-toed sisterhood and straight-up union pride!
We’re chopping it up with Chelsea Fenton — laborer, leader, and certified “get-the-job-done-and-don’t-complain” queen. From the jobsite to the union hall, Chelsea shows up loud, proud, and ready to remind the world that power tools don’t come with gender labels.
We talk:
💥 Owning your space in a male-populated trade.
💥 Standing union strong when life test you.
💥 Why confidence don’t come in pink, it comes in resilience.
💥 Sisterhood, steel, and showing up with your FULL energy
Chelsea’s the kind of woman who will hype you up, hand you a tool, and dare you to go build your destiny, all before lunch.
And if nobody told you today?
You don’t need permission to be powerful.
Just purpose, persistence, and the resilience to rise again and again.
So tune in, laugh with us, get inspired, and remember:
We’re building the future with grit, grace, and a whole lotta fire.
