Tradeswomen Talk is where those stories finally get told. From the plumbers and electricians to the carpenters and ironworkers, host Judaline Cassidy sits down with the women, and the men who stand with them, building America with their own two hands

Leadership Without Ego: Kevin Khemraj
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What does real leadership look like in the trades when the title comes off and the responsibility stays on?
In this episode of Tradeswomen Talk, we sit down with Kevin Khemraj, Vice President of Welkin Mechanical, for a powerful conversation about the kind of leadership that doesn’t need to be loud to be felt. The kind that builds strong teams, earns respect in the field, and creates space for others to rise.
Kevin shares his journey from engineer to executive and the lessons learned in high-pressure rooms, on complex projects, and in the everyday moments where trust is either built, or broken. We talk about accountability, making hard decisions, mentoring the next generation, and why the best leaders are the ones still willing to listen.
This episode isn’t just for people with a title.
It’s for anyone who leads a crew, a project, a classroom, or is preparing to step into their next level.
Because leadership in the trades isn’t about ego.
It’s about impact.
So whether you’re on the train, in the truck, on the job, or home winding down, it time to lock in.
