The Hidden Struggles of Linemen & Men in the Trades
The powerline industry is built on toughness, resilience, and hard work—but what happens when that toughness comes at the cost of mental health? In this episode of Powerline Podcast, I sit down with psychotherapist Hayley Booker, whose deep understanding of the trade (thanks to her lineman father) gives her a unique perspective on the mental health challenges men in the industry face.
We discuss:
- The stigma around mental health in the trades
- Why men feel they have to “earn the right” to open up
- The consequences of emotional suppression and burnout
- Practical tools for managing stress, self-talk, and resilience
- How to create a culture where men can talk about what’s really going on
If you or someone you know is struggling, this conversation is for you. Let’s start breaking the silence.
