She Builds: Empowering Women at the Workbench

Today’s the day.

She Builds: The Empowered Woman’s Guide to Woodworking and DIY Mastery is officially out in the world, and I couldn’t be more excited—or more proud—to share it with you.

This book has been a dream in the making, but more than that, it’s a statement. It’s proof that woodworking doesn’t belong to one type of person, one gender, or one background.

The workbench belongs to anyone who dares to pick up a tool and create.

And this book? It’s written especially for the women who have always felt the pull to build, but wondered if they had a place in the shop.

Why She Builds Matters

When I first started woodworking, I didn’t see a lot of women represented. Sure, there were Pinterest projects and DIY blogs, but most of the “serious” woodworking content came from men. It was intimidating to walk into a space where I felt like I didn’t belong.

But the truth is—wood doesn’t care who’s holding the saw. Tools don’t care who pulls the trigger on the drill. Building isn’t about gender, it’s about courage.

And that’s the heartbeat of She Builds.

It’s not just a guide to woodworking—it’s an invitation. An invitation for women to step up to the workbench, to learn, to grow, and to claim the space that has always been theirs.

What’s Inside

She Builds covers the practical and the personal:

• Tool basics explained simply, without jargon or intimidation.

• Step-by-step confidence builders that grow with you as your skills expand.

• Encouragement and empowerment woven throughout—because woodworking isn’t just about projects, it’s about believing in yourself.

It’s part how-to guide, part pep talk, and part love letter to every woman who has ever thought, “I wish I could build that.”

More Than Sawdust

Yes, this book is about woodworking. But it’s also about something bigger.

It’s about women taking up space in areas they’ve been told don’t belong to them. It’s about creating not just shelves and tables, but confidence and courage. It’s about proving that creativity isn’t a luxury—it’s a way of coming home to yourself.

When you build something with your hands, you don’t just change wood. You change yourself.

A Community of Builders

One of the things I hope She Builds inspires is connection. Because when women come together around creativity, incredible things happen.

Whether you’re building in a garage corner, on an apartment balcony, or in a full shop, you’re not alone. Every project connects you to a larger community of makers who believe in empowerment through craft.

And that’s what this launch is about. Not just one book—but a movement of women who believe in the power of creating with their own two hands.

Launching She Builds isn’t just about releasing a book. It’s about releasing a message: you are capable, you are creative, and you belong at the workbench.

So here’s to sawdust in your hair, tools in your hands, and confidence in your heart. Here’s to every project you’ll start, every lesson you’ll learn, and every moment of pride when you stand back and say, “I built that.”

This is your sign. This is your time. This is your book.

Because she builds—and so can you.
