It takes a village to build a handyma’am
The Mission
For decades, the world of home repair and basic trades has felt gatekept, intimidating, and overwhelmingly male-dominated. How To Handyma'am is changing that. We host high-energy, zero-judgment workshops designed to teach women the foundational skills they need to confidently maintain their homes, save thousands on basic repairs, and build absolute self-reliance. On August 22, 2026, we are taking over a warehouse in Lansing, MI for our All-Day Intensive Workshop.
