Episode 24 | Building More w Eva Palichuk

Eva joins the podcast to share what it really looks like to walk away from a career in teaching and step into something completely different. After years in the classroom, she made the leap into the construction world alongside her husband—and hasn’t looked back. She also reflects on immigrating to Canada at just 12 years old, an incredibly impressionable age that shaped so much of who she is today. From navigating a new country and culture to building a life from the ground up, that experience continues to influence how she approaches change and opportunity. The conversation dives into the decision to leave education, the identity shift that comes with it, and what it’s like learning a whole new industry. They talk marriage, working together as a couple, and redefining what success and balance can look like in a new season of life. It’s honest, relatable, and a reminder that it’s never too late to pivot—even if it feels a little scary at first. Where to find Eva Instagram: @evapalichuk @lions_construction @lions_developments
