What’s it really like being a young woman in the gas trade? In this episode of Off the Tools Podcast, Pete and Kieran chat with Ella Lewis from Ella’s Gas Services, who shares her journey into the plumbing and heating world. From tough apprenticeships and late-night callouts to managing safety in social housing, Ella lifts the lid on the realities of working as a female gas engineer.

She also reveals how her passion for Olympic lifting, clean eating, and homegrown food keeps her balanced in a demanding job—and why she ditched fast food for sourdough and raw milk.

If you’re interested in the plumbing & heating industry, apprenticeships, women in trades, or healthy living alongside a busy trade career, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.
