	Description:		Ana Gamero, originally from Peru and now living in Australia for 17 years, made the bold transition from construction to welding while undertaking an Engineering Fabrication Apprenticeship. In this conversation, she shares her journey in the trades, the invaluable support from her colleagues, and the guidance of Courteney Munn, Project Manager at AMWU, who helped her navigate the challenges she faced. Through the union, Ana discovered a powerful sense of community and support.The song in the intro is Marinera Norteña - La Trujillana. The song at the end is La Flor de la Canela, by Chabuca Granda and interpreted by Eva Ayllon en vivo en Buenos Aires, Argentina. Both songs are gems of Peruvian musical heritage. Special thanks to Ana Gamero for the interview.This episode was presented by Ximena Jimenez and produced on the unceded lands of the Wurundjeri People of the Kulin Nation, in what is now known as Melbourne. We pay our respects to their Elders past, present, and emerging, and acknowledge their ongoing connection to land, waters, and culture.
