In this episode: Angela and Christi dive into the world of sustainable building with Amanda Albert, a veteran in sustainable design and residential construction. Amanda shares her background in wildlife management and her 14 years with Habitat for Humanity, discussing how her interest in ecology and building led her to sustainable practices. She discusses the nuances of eco-friendly building materials, the challenges of getting permits for unconventional building methods like straw bale houses, and the importance of community involvement in construction projects. Amanda also provides insights into making sustainable building accessible and affordable for everyone, not just high spenders, and encourages women and new entrants to explore opportunities in the construction industry. Thanks for listening!
