Some books are written to impress people. This one was written to move people. In this solo episode of Tradeswomen Talk. I’m sharing the story behind my book, Conceive It. Believe It. And Then Do That Sht!t why I wrote it, what it cost me to tell the truth, and what I hope readers take away from every page. This isn’t a book about being extraordinary. It’s a book about what happens when ordinary people stop waiting for permission and start betting on themselves. From growing up in Trinidad to becoming a union plumber in New York City, from cleaning houses and working as a nanny to founding Tools & Tiaras, writing books, and building a movement that has impacted thousands of girls, my journey has been filled with setbacks, detours, rejection, and moments when quitting would have been easier. But I’ve learned something along the way: Dreams don’t work because you have talent. Dreams work because you do. In this episode, I talk about the difference between wishing and believing, why action is the missing ingredient in so many people’s lives, and how grit has carried me further than confidence ever could. If you’ve been sitting on an idea, a business, a career change, a creative project, or a dream that’s been whispering to you for years, this conversation is for you. Because the truth is, most people don’t fail because they aren’t capable. They fail because they never begin. So consider this your nudge. Your push. Your loving Caribbean auntie-style kick in the pants. Conceive it.Believe it.And then do that sh!t! 📖 Get Your Copy Paperback: https://amzn.to/4abU40D Hardcover: https://amzn.to/4wZl65j Kindle: https://a.co/d/iUGuwcr  Stan Store: https://stan.store/MissJudaline Connect with Judaline: Instagram: @judaline6 LinkedIn: Judaline Cassidy TikTok:@feministplumber Facebook:Judaline Cassidy Website:https://www.judaline.com/ Remember: Today’s no is tomorrow’s yes.

Leadership isn’t handed to you. It’s earned. In this episode, Maria Ford and I go beyond titles and talk about the real foundation of next-level leadership, discipline, accountability, and the courage to lead with vulnerability. Yes, vulnerability. Because strength isn’t pretending you have all the answers. It’s being honest enough to grow, adjust, and lead people,  not just manage outcomes. We dive into: • What “earned, not given” looks like in real time • Why vulnerability is a leadership advantage, not a weakness • The discipline behind high-performance standards • How to lead under pressure without losing yourself • And why industry responsibility matters We also talk about the role companies like DeWalt play in shaping the future, empowering the next generation to confidently pick up tools, see themselves in the trades, and step into spaces that once felt out of reach. Because leadership isn’t just about today’s results. It’s about who we’re building up for tomorrow. This episode is for the leaders who understand: You don’t demand respect. You earn it. And once you earn it, you use it to open doors for someone else. Listen in. Reflect. Then ask yourself — are you just holding a position… or are you building a legacy?

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.  Personal: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kevin-khemraj-59b73a9a/ Website:https://www.welkinmechanical.com/ Tools & Tiaras Merch: https://tools-and-tiaras.myshopify.com/ Donate to Tools &Tiaras:  https://bit.ly/3fmBZQB Book Conceive It Believe It And Then Do That Sh!T:https://amzn.to/4o0l34t Stan Store:https://stan.store/MissJudaline If you enjoy our podcast, would you please consider leaving a short review and rating on Apple Podcasts/iTunes?
