Explore the evolving landscape of career paths and how education plays a pivotal role in guiding young minds. We'll take a closer look at the balance between traditional university routes and skills-based learning, emphasizing the importance of foundational skills like punctuality and perseverance. With personal stories and engaging discussion, we'll unveil the strides being made to create inclusive work environments, particularly through the increasing presence of women in construction. The construction industry is not just about bricks and mortar; it’s about community and collaboration. We'll highlight the mental health challenges faced within this sector, and the importance of addressing these issues head-on. Hear about initiatives like those from Josh Vitale in Chandler, Arizona, focusing on mental health and suicide prevention.
