Kate Muldoon Is the Founder and Head Coach at Ladies with Tradies. A tradie’s wife herself, Kate wanted to help other ladies with her proven strategies for a successful working relationship with their tradies. Kate and the team bring all things 'behind the scenes' to the forefront - without the complex jargon and 'businessy' confusion.
Kate was inspired to create Ladies with Tradies to support other tradie couples after a series of tragedies in her own life. The loss of her tradie brother, the loss of a tradie partner through addiction, and loss of both grandfathers at a young age due to illnesses relates to their ‘tradesmen’ lifestyle. Kate was also a palliative care nurse and intimately witnessed the regrets of the dying. Kate’s mission is to help tradie couples stop shit hitting the fan and reduce regrets and stress in love, life and business.
Kate’s no bullshit approach of good communication and being brutally honest inspires people to believe in and value themselves for the amazing people they are. What you see is what you get with Kate. Her down to earth nature stems from her rural upbringing and she strives to make services such as coaching and business support available to all tradie couples, no matter where they’re based.
When Kate becomes part of your team, she embeds herself into your way of life. She will advocate, promote and understand your business as if it were her own. You can rely on Kate to deliver for you and your team.

Shani was brought up in a tradie household, with her Dad and uncles as Chippies and her 2 younger brothers also following in the footsteps of Dad.

Candice is a lady with a tradie—so she truly understands the beautiful chaos that comes with running a trade business alongside your partner. After years in healthcare in a hectic medical lab, Candice swapped test tubes for timber, tiles, and trade schedules and now runs
the admin side of her family’s trade business. She brings genuine insight, heart, and plenty of humour to her role as a Business Coach.
A proud mum of two school-aged kids, Candice knows the juggle of balancing work, family, and the endless to-do lists. She’s not a morning person (especially not on cold ones!) but loves a catch-up camping with friends or enjoying family holidays making memories.
Candice and her husband were once clients of Ladies With Tradies and have experienced firsthand the difference a truly great business coach can make when navigating this wild ride we call the trades industry. Inspired by that experience, she’s passionate about helping
tradies and their ladies find confidence, clarity, and calm amid the craziness.
She’s all about streamlining systems, easing the mental load, and being the steady, understanding voice when it all feels overwhelming. Because let’s face it—when everything feels like too much, you need someone who’s been there, gets it, and knows how to make it
simpler—and that’s Candice.
