From Chaos to Queen – Kirsty Newman’s Wild Ride in Solar
This week, Pat checks in from the Solar & Storage Live conference in Brisbane while Lauren holds the fort in Melbourne— and we’re joined by Kirsty Newman from Sunshine State Solar.
Kirsty shares an outrageous journey from being thrown into the deep end of solar in her early 20s, to building a thriving business through pure grit, sharp systems, and a zero-BS attitude. We talk chaos, compliance, ADHD, apprenticeships, and what it really takes to lead a solar team.
One of the wildest and most inspiring episodes we’ve recorded — don’t miss it.
