About the Work & Talk Podcast

                                               The Skilled Trades Podcast Built for Workers, Leaders, and the People Who Build America.

Work & Talk is a skilled trades podcast dedicated to real conversations from the field—electricians, apprentices, HVAC techs, plumbers, solar installers, contractors, business owners, and industry leaders. Hosted by Wilson Matthew Betances, Founder & CEO of Energize Us EDU, this show exists to elevate the voices of the people who keep America running.

Every episode dives into leadership, discipline, long-term growth, workforce development, and the future of the skilled trades. We don’t sugar-coat the industry. We talk about what it really takes to build a career, build a team, and build a life inside the trades.

Whether you’re on the job-site, running a crew, training an apprentice, or building a company, the Work & Talk Podcast gives you the mindset, strategy, and real-world insight to move forward with confidence.
