Being A Pipeline Wife Made ME Depressed (HOW I Found Happiness Again)

In this episode of the podcast we are switching things up a bit! My husband, Austin, is going to interview me today. We will be looking at my background and the time leading up to when he decided to travel and become a pipeline welder. Traveling and being a pipeline wife ultimately made me depressed. How? Why? We get into that. We both try and open up as much as possible and it is in keeping with the way we have chosen to live our lives and run this business to share as much as we can. For me, the process of confronting my fears and seeking help has been a process of healing and creating Industrial Tradition is part of that. The conversation ends off fielding some questions from my Instagram followers and I discuss staying productive and finding my community amongst other things.
