Emily Taylor the founder  of @bluecollarbabes created this page back in 2015 originally to find other women inside of skilled trades.  The common theme amongst women is that they feel alone in there journey in their skilled trades as a woman. Simply finding women to relate to in their field seemed impossible, up until social media came along & has given those like Miss Manual & Blue Collar Babes to unite & showcase that the numbers are growing!  No this isn't to strike men vs women, the real agenda is to show the numbers of whats possible for women to come after them that stand today.  Where we live in a world it is more normalized to have these career paths as an alternative rather than being percieved as an outcast that belongs in the "kitchen"  Emily Tin shares her passion & why on her excitement to a part of the Miss Manual Podcast Roster & where her journey started!  Be sure to follow her journey as she continues to reveal more women on @bluecollarbabes on Instagram.  https://www.instagram.com/bluecollarbabes/
