What does it take to build a $5 million company in your first year—in a male-dominated industry—without sacrificing integrity, people, or faith?
In this episode of The Impactful Leader Podcast, Chris sits down with Katy Higgins, Founder and CEO of True Pros Plumbing, Heating & Air, to unpack one of the most compelling leadership stories in the trades today.

Prioritizes people over profit in an industry known for aggressive sales
Champions women in the trades, shifting culture from the inside out
Leads with faith, integrity, and long-term vision
Gives back by fully funding Make-A-Wish family experiences

What rapid growth really costs behind the scenes
Why leadership is often lonely—and how community changes everything
How culture, core values, and service create sustainable scale
What Katy had to become personally to lead a growing organization
Her bold vision to build a $30M company with excellence and purpose

When life collapsed without warning, Tasha Roberts had two choices—let her parents’ company die, or step into a role she never wanted.
In this episode, Tasha reveals the behind-the-scenes story of how a sudden family tragedy forced her into leadership overnight… and how that moment became the catalyst for scaling ASAP Commercial Doors into a high-performing, multi-location operation.
You’ll discover:
• How Tasha went from zero experience to leading a male-dominated industry with confidence
• The exact mindset that helped her push through doubt, pressure, and team resistance
• Why delegation, systems, and performance-based pay shattered her company’s growth ceiling
• How rebranding transformed her brand’s credibility and positioned her for expansion
• The role faith played in her most decisive career move (including a cross-country relocation she made purely out of obedience)
• How she develops leaders internally through vision casting, coaching, and an apprenticeship model
• The legacy she hopes to leave in the trades—and why she believes “pressure is a privilege”
This is one of the most authentic and empowering leadership stories you’ll hear all year—a real-life example of what happens when courage meets calling.
If you’re a business owner facing pressure, uncertainty, or transition…
This episode will give you the mindset, hope, and clarity you need to lead forward.

How to harness pain instead of avoiding it
Why most ERPs fail and what actually works
The leadership habits that transform both companies and families
How clarity, metrics, and emotional awareness fuel sustainable growth
