Ladies with Tradies helps tradie couples with the tools to stop shit hitting the fan and achieve all their goals in love, life and business. Through 1:1 coaching, seminars and workshops, Ladies with Tradies offers no bullshit education, training and support to reduce regrets and stress in business.
Our programs bring all things 'behind the scenes' to the forefront - without the complex jargon and 'businessy' confusion. You’ll learn about cash flow management, structuring your teams, planning, goal setting, growth and so much more. We teach you how to work WITH your Tradie, not bang your head against a wall. Heck, it could potentially save your marriage, but more importantly – your sanity!

Josie Postlethwaite is the Managing Director / Finance Manager for Ladies with Tradies and many of our clients. She is the heart behind the numbers interpretation for couples in trades’ businesses. There is nobody who can unpack, coach and support to implement people with the power of numbers than this little pocket rocket.
Josie brings the sanity and the reassurance to our clients through simple, effective strategies that the Tradies and Ladies love, because they learn how to interpret their numbers, and put into play everything they need to achieve their personal and financial goals.
Chane is our dynamic, straight shooting, get shit done coach, based in NZ - I know right - so cool.
She comes from a family of trades entrepreneurs where her dad was a mechanic. She grew up with the highs and lows of a mechanic business... dad always doing his best to provide meaning that her mum played full time mum and dad. Just like many of us can relate to - even weekends her dad's business occupied him - which I am sure breaks his heart even now.
Here's why Chane loves LWT and all we stand for:
No child should wish for more quality time with mum/dad
No married woman should need to play both roles
No man should be a slave to his business, and feel the need to make up for lost time when life catches up with them
Business done right should give families more, not take away live and experiences. My calling and life purpose is empowering business owners from all walks of life live a regret free life in love, life and business"
Chane has an extensive background in marketing and sales, recruitment - and all things business. She has a passion for helping and changing people's lives.
Kate and Chane worked together for some time in the past and this is where they cultivated ideas, grew excited together, and eventually decided to take on the crusade of reducing regrets in the lives of others together.

Mel knows what it is like to carry the weight of the world on her shoulders as a business owner. What it is like to be consumed in the day-to-day operations of the business and feeling like a car aquaplaning at 110 clicks down the Pacific Highway completely out of control.
She knows what it’s like to not only start from the beginning – getting her brand and herself to be known, liked and trusted but also knows the challenges that come with taking on an already established business and inheriting a team and all of the bad habits that come along with it.
She also knows that business doesn’t have to be that hard. With the right structure and planning (and oh how she loves structure & planning), you really can build that business that gives you the financial and time freedom we all crave for.
Her first 20 years in business was climbing the Corporate ladder absorbing as much knowledge and as many skills that she could take into her own small business. As much as Corporations can be that naughty C word at times, they do know how to do systems and structure that can easily be adapted so small business.
Mel is extremely passionate, enthusiastic, loyal and will be your number one supporter. She will call you out on your crap but will also be that friendly ear to vent to when needed.
A wife, mother (of twins – she doesn’t do things in half), coach and business owner, Mel gets shit done – and she will expect the same from you – so strap in and enjoy the ride!
