From changing diapers to breaking barriers in construction, Rossana Storani’s journey is one of resilience, reinvention, and relentless determination. An immigrant from Argentina, Rossana left behind a life of wealth and comfort to start over in New York as a single mother. With no safety net, no English, and no clear path forward, she built not just a new life, but a thriving business in an industry dominated by men.
For 25 years, Rossana has been a successful entrepreneur, business owner, and now an enthusiastic life coach, helping others navigate life’s biggest transitions. With compassion and empathy, she empowers individuals—especially middle-aged women—to embrace change, step into their strength, and create a life of purpose and fulfillment.
In this episode, Rossana shares: From Motherhood to Master Builder: How she juggled raising a child while building a career Breaking Barriers: Succeeding in construction as a woman in a male-dominated field Resilience & Reinvention: The mindset shifts that helped her turn struggles into stepping stones Empowering Others: How she now helps others find their own strength and purpose
From diapers to demolition to chasing her biggest dreams, Rossana’s story proves that no matter where you start, you have the power to build something extraordinary.
