As we approach our annual Tradeswomen Build Nations conference next week in Houston, here's a feature in People magazine about union sister Chelsea Fenton from LiUNA Local 596!She makes content showing women what life in the trades really looks like. Her message is simple: It’s not that women don’t want this work. It’s that too many don’t know the opportunities are there.“They have no idea they can get paid over $40 an hour without a college education, with a pension and annuity and world-class safety training.”That’s what being union is about: good pay, real benefits, and a community behind you. And like Chelsea says, “You can’t be what you can’t see.” Every woman who sees someone like her out there in boots is one step closer to taking the jump.If you know a woman thinking about her next step, whether she’s a daughter, a friend, or a coworker, send her Chelsea’s story and check out her videos.

Chelsea Fenton uses TikTok to share her union laborer career, connect with tradeswomen, and highlight opportunities for women in the skilled trades.
