📚 4 books. A 5th on the way. And a release date you'll want to mark on your calendar.

Paige has been writing children's books about the trades and Adam's already buying copies for his daughter. 📖

Her next one drops June 2nd, and it's story-driven: a character with no hot water, a repair that saves the day, and a real glimpse into why this work matters.

Watching younger generations get excited about the trades? That's the whole point.

🔧 Landing a job at 15 at a real HVAC shop. Shadowing techs. Loving every minute of it.

And still having to fight to be taken seriously every single day.

Paige gets real about what it took to stick it out, the doubt from others, developing thick skin early, and that feeling when a homeowner is watching your every move and imposter syndrome starts creeping in.

No Googling your way out of that one. 😅

The trades aren't easy for anyone. But this conversation is a good reminder of why it's worth it.

🛠️ 14 years old. Straight-A student. Walked into a tech school tour and something clicked.

Everyone told her tech school wasn't the right path, that her grades meant she should be headed somewhere else.

She didn't listen.

Paige chose to follow what actually interested her, and it changed everything.

How many kids are being steered away from the trades right now because of that same pressure? 👊

All trades. No excuses. 🔧📚

This episode is for the next generation figuring out what's next and for every tradesperson who wants to hand them a better map.

Plumbing. HVAC/R. Construction. Author. What's your excuse?

She started in the trades young, kept going through Covid, and ended up writing books about it. 🔧📚

Tomorrow on Chill Under Pressure, we're sitting down with All Trades Paige — a multi-trade pro who's turning her own story into fuel for the next generation considering a path after high school.

Plumbing. HVAC/R. Construction. And now author.

This one's for anyone who's ever told a young person the trades are worth it or anyone who needed to hear it themselves.

CO doesn't always drop you on the spot. Sometimes it just makes you feel off for years.

Mystery illness. Chronic headaches. Flu symptoms that never fully go away. Low-level irritation you chalk up to stress.

That's the part people don't talk about. Louise does.

If you work around combustion equipment or know someone who does, this clip is worth watching. Full episode on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts.

Behind every tech is a story worth knowing.

Louise started because she wanted the industry to see itself — the real people doing real work, with knowledge and journeys that don't fit in a textbook.

If you're in the trades, post your selfie and tag it. You're part of something bigger than a service call.

Hear more from Louise on the full episode of Chill Under Pressure.
