Women in Trades: Erin Ennis on Community, Confidence & Changing the Industry | BioClean Unfiltered

In this powerful episode of BioClean Unfiltered, Rhea and Dawn welcome Erin Ennis, owner of Energy Exteriors NW, for a conversation that’s equal parts inspiring, honest, and deeply community-focused. Erin shares her journey from growing up in Lynnwood to becoming a respected leader in the home-exterior construction industry—a field still largely dominated by men. Erin opens up about• how she accidentally fell into construction but discovered her passion,• why windows and siding are more about health than aesthetics,• the challenges and advantages of being a woman in the trades,• how she leads a mostly female staff with compassion and integrity,• and why community service—especially Clothes for Kids, Habitat, and local nonprofits—is at the heart of everything she does. She also talks about growing her business since 2014, surviving the chaotic boom of the COVID home-improvement wave, the importance of business coaching, and defining success through helping others. This episode is packed with wisdom for business owners, tradeswomen, leaders, and anyone passionate about serving their community.
