In this episode of the Sparky Life podcast, Lia Lamela speaks with Kimmy the Sparks, an electrician who shares her journey in the male-dominated electrical industry. Despite facing discouragement and gender discrimination, the electrician rose from an administrative role to become a qualified professional.
She discusses the versatility of her job, the importance of female camaraderie, and her experiences with gender bias. The discussion highlights the empowerment of women in trades and the power of a positive mindset.
