This week we welcome Melissa Gaglione, the president of Safety4Her, a women’s safety and work gear brand aimed at supplying women with personal protective equipment (PPE). In this episode, she joins Emily to talk about her experiences as a woman in a male-dominated industry. Melissa also works in the trucking industry, running operations with her fiancé for two family-owned towing companies and two family-owned trucking companies in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Most impressively, this mother of five is also a former real estate consultant, sits on the board of several real estate organizations, and was recently named Women in Trucking Member of the Month by the Women in Trucking Association. Joining in, listeners will hear Melissa talk about what drew her to the industry in the first place, what kind of challenges she faced early on, and how she responds to negative comments online. Melissa discusses the motivation behind starting a safety workwear brand for women and gets into all the wonderful products they offer for ladies everywhere. Tune in today!
