Our special guest today will make you rethink what women can do and achieve in a male-dominated field, specifically in the construction space. She will surely hook you with her witty responses, empower you with her strong personality, and inspire you with her relatable story.

Ladies and gentlement, meet Maggie Kuyper, the co-founder of Harpeth Painting LLC, a construction business in Nashville, Tennessee. It hasn’t been an easy climb to success. While significant progress has been made over the past few decades, women continue to face challenges that hinder their full participation. Maggie unapologetically unveils the truth about unfair stereotypes and the adversities women face in male-centered industries.

Maggie had been an educator for ten years before bravely venturing into the world of business with her husband and their hard-earned savings.

We got the opportunity to listen to Maggie’s story today because she was connected to me by her dad, Dr. Jeff Cornwall. He is an entrepreneurial mastermind and passionate educator. In case you didn’t know, I also got to interview Jeff in a recent Inspired Speaker Series video in The Pond. It was a conversation filled with wisdom about the ins and outs of the business field. He let that entrepreneurial mind shine through!

For women out there who are having second thoughts about bringing their business ideas to life, this episode will give you the empowerment that you need.
