In this episode, we catch up with the super talented Vicky smith of Smith Nicholson Decorators, based down in Kent. Only the second female we've had on the show so far. We'd love to have more females on repping the trade, so any ladies out there that fancy joining me on the show- give me a shout. I have a lot of time and admiration for Vicky and think she's a cracking role model for the ladies to look up to in the trade. in this episode we chat about the tricky art of balancing single parenting with work, people's pre-conceptions of females in the trade, and "Cowgirl" workers. So pin back you're ears, make a brew, crank the volume up and dive in.
Brothers of the Brush is the first international show to arrive at PCA. Hosted by the English Master Decorator, Chris Kerfoot, this show consists of interviews with numerous decorators from across the world to acquire real-life business experiences and guidance from the source.
Chris is always interested in hearing what you have to say! Please contact him at [email protected] if there are any topics you'd want to hear more about, or if there's someone you'd like us to approach to feature on future podcasts (including yourself!).
