Show Notes

Saskia Van Den Berghe joins us all the way from Belgium to talk about women in carpentry and the construction industry in Belgium. On the show, Manny learns some Flemish words, how trade schools work in Belgium, and how the Belgian government's decision to open the borders to other countries' tradespeople is affecting the Belgian trades. Saskia also shares her devotion to changing the way young people and women think about the trades, and how she's using her platform to do that. She also tells us about the cowboys and clowns of the Belgian construction industry. Is nowhere free of them? Join us on this episode of The Construction Life Podcast.
