In a past life, Kelly McNamara worked as a Kinesiologist, doing functional assessments and ergonomic consulting for industry. Today she is an Apprentice Carpenter with Freestone Construction in Fernie, British Columbia. Pursuing carpentry full-time has altered her trajectory in such a positive way that, as she says: "I can’t NOT share this journey." As a member of British Columbia Center for Women in the Trades initiatives and via social media, she uses her platform to help break down the concept of traditional gender roles that still linger within the trades. In this episode we talk about following your joy, creating and finding brave spaces and the importance of advocacy via organizations and social media to normalize women in trades.
