Mental Health Issues for Women in Construction
I have heard just about everything you can imagine working in the Contruction industry as a woman. But these ones are the ones I hear the most.

Self Doubt
Self Confidence
Self Pride
Whether it is coming from myself or just the environment we work around, these are some of the stressors we face in this industry. If only the construction of emotional wellness was as straightforward as following blueprints. Just know, you are not the only one.
