Episode 7: Part 1: Verity Hare from TradieWives

This week Adrian is joined by the lovely Verity Hare the founder of Australia’s biggest community of wives and partners of tradies- ‘TradieWives’! Verity first created the TradieWives Facebook community when she first started working full time in her husband’s structural landscaping business and noticed how little trade-specific information was available to help her figure things out. She started the group shortly after with the hopes of getting 20 members to bounce ideas off, and has since seen it grow to over 10,000 members.

In episode one of this two part series, we discuss how Verity first came up with the idea for TradieWives and how the group has grown beyond what she could have ever imagined.

For our female listeners, you can join the TradieWives community by heading to https://www.facebook.com/groups/TradieWives and clicking ‘join’. You can also keep up with the TradieWives team on their social media pages below.

Adrian Fadini

Adrian Fadini built Plumber To The Rescue from the ground up and turned it into one of Sydney’s most respected service trade businesses. He knows what it takes to build something that lasts—because he’s lived it.

After selling the business to his biggest competitor in 2012, he stayed on for two years, securing major commercial accounts—strata firms, pub groups, and businesses needing ongoing plumbing and electrical services.

Through it all, Adrian learned the power of training—not as a nice-to-have, but as a non-negotiable. It’s how he levelled up his team, created consistency, and built a business that could grow without him in the driver’s seat.

For over a decade, Adrian’s been coaching tradies across the service trades—plumbing, electrical, HVAC—you name it. He’s worked with clients at every stage, from solo operators trying to get off the tools to multi-million dollar businesses chasing serious scale.

Now, he brings all that experience to the table—real-world strategies, proven systems, and a genuine drive to help other tradies sell better, scale stronger, and systemize for long-term success.
