"No.  This is not my husband's company...I built it from the ground up!"


In this episode of the Reinvention Road Trip podcast,  you'll meet my friend Shelley McPhatter,  founder and CEO of Bridgeport Construction a multimillion dollar construction firm in Durham, NC.   She's a mom of three with an ocean engineering degree and a new found love for investing.  On all accounts, she defied convention and waded through self-doubt to jump off her comfort cliff into a male dominated industry.   


Shelley successfully scaled her company to over 20 employees and 25 Million dollars in annual revenue in seven years, and earlier this month, she was inducted into the NC Women Business Owner's Hall of Fame.   Ya'll,  the kicker in all this...she's in her 40's! 


If you need a boost of "girl power" and a reminder of what we can do as women, you'll get it in this episode.  Shelley takes us behind the scenes and tells us how she navigated the messy middle - reinventing herself time and time again!

The show is hosted by Marc Lee and Dean Geronimo.Here's what some of our past guests are saying about the show....It's people like Marc that care about the little guys like me that make the sun shine and the flowers grow. Listening to his podcast has become the high point of my week..... Cliff Latshaw, President at Newbasstone.It was a delightful, interesting, and fun interview that felt more like a conversation with an old friend as Marc Lee and I talked about the book and related topics and swapped a few stories. Dean pitched in some comments along the way. Peter Davidson, Author.As a guest on the show, I enjoyed the conversation about the connection between science and art, between activism and Afrofuturism. Marc has been a longtime friend and supporter of the Arts, especially regarding blues music and film, and it was easy having this conversation. Dean carried us down the road with his politically informed charm. I look forward to being back on the show to pick up where we left off and to carry us into what Sun Ra would say, The Spaceways! Darrell Stover, Poet and EducatorYou have such a wonderful radio voice and a great demeanor with your guests on your blogtalkradio show "Straight Talk With Dean and Marc."
