OUR FIRST INTERVIEW!
This incredible organization is dedicated to supporting women on their journey to recovery from drug and alcohol addiction.

They truly get that women in construction face unique challenges, especially when it comes to addiction. Val has firsthand experience not only in the construction world but also in navigating her own journey of addiction and recovery.
This interview was truly uplifting, and we canât wait for you to check it out! If you enjoyed this episode, we'd love for you to follow, like, and drop a comment!

The Triangle is no stranger to struggle. On this weeks episode, for Mental Health Awareness Month, we get real and honest about the challenges we have faced. From child loss to addiction, this is a raw episode. We also give insight to how we overcome some of our toughest struggles. Mental health awareness is crucial, especially in the construction industry, which has alarming statistics that demand our attention. Did you know that construction workers have one of the highest suicide rates compared to other professions? It's a staggering figure, reported to be four times higher than the national average. A 2020 survey by the Associated General Contractors of America (AGC) highlighted that 14.3% of construction workers experience anxiety, and nearly 6% battle depression. Moreover, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) notes that substance abuse disorders among construction workers are nearly double the national average.Mental Health ResourcesIf you or someone you know is struggling, please reach out for help.
