In this episode of Another Bloody Podcast, Share the Dignity founder Rochelle Courtenay sits down with 2024 ACT Australian of the Year Joanne Farrell, builder, industry leader and founder of Build Like A Girl, to unpack the urgent need for Building Bloody Change.

Jo shares her firsthand experience navigating the construction industry as a woman, from walking onto sites without basic amenities to witnessing talented women leave the sector due to preventable barriers. Together, they explore the reality of Australia’s skills shortage, the systemic inequities still present on worksites, and why access to clean toilets, sanitary bins and period products is not a luxury, but a fundamental workplace standard.

This conversation challenges workplaces to do better, highlighting how small, practical changes can create lasting impact. Because if we are serious about attracting and retaining women, we must build workplaces that respect dignity, safety and equity for all.

Another Bloody Podcast is hosted by Share the Dignity founder Rochelle Courtenay aka 'Pad Lady'.
