More women are buying homes, building businesses, and managing household decisions, so why are we still being overlooked when it comes to HVAC, home maintenance, and major service decisions?
In this episode, we’re sitting down with Jillian Eberhard, co-owner of Aire Serv Heating and Air Conditioning of Glenbrook, who made a bold leap from 15+ years in corporate consulting to owning a business in one of the most male-dominated industries, HVAC.
She shares the real story behind taking the risk, blowing through their SBA loan faster than expected, being underestimated on job sites, and why she’s now building a home service business that treats women like smart, capable decision-makers (because we are!).
