What really happens when a tradie wife steps into the family business? In this episode, we’re joined by Claire and Brenden: the powerhouse husband-and-wife team behind Gary Jeans Kitchens who open up about what it’s actually like to live, work, and raise a family together while running a fast-growing trade business.From Claire’s leap from speech pathologist to “Dr. Director,” to Brenden’s honest take on going from working with his dad to taking the reins, this is a raw and relatable look into the real-life challenges and wins of a second-generation trade business.They share: -What it’s like navigating roles at home and on the job -The growing pains of scaling a team -What to do when male tradies don’t take the “director wife” seriously -Why knowing your numbers is everything (and how they finally wrapped their heads around it) -The systems, software, and support that changed their business -Plus: Their no-BS advice for other tradie couples thinking of working together**This episode is proudly sponsored by TradieWives Business+.
