On today’s episode, I’m challenging you with the question: Is Your Comfort Zone Holding You Back? When we have a dream on our heart, when we want to start something new, when we want to go against the grain - we think about everything that could go wrong. What if others judge me? What if this fails? What if I fail? All of these fears are normal because our brain is quite literally designed to keep...

I’m so excited about today’s conversation! I met Billie Asmus at a recent Women in Ag night where I was the keynote speaker. While there, Billie shared her story of bringing her product from idea to market and I *knew* it was a journey that someone in this community needed to hear!  Billie is a mom of two, inventor and avid DIYer. She grew up in a small rural town in northern Wisconsin, met her hu...

As we kick off this summer season, I plan on being super intentional with my time; being present with my family, enjoying the small moments, and focusing on my mental, physical and emotional health.

You all know how strongly I believe that you have the capability to bring any goal or dream to life. As I reflect on what I’ve learned over the past several months of my healing journey, I’ve come to realize my own attachment between achievement and worthiness, productivity and feeling like enough. I’ve been doing a lot of intentional work on untangling these ideas within myself and I’ve noticed h...

On today’s episode, I have the joy of chatting with my friend, Annaliese Wegner about embracing your changing roles on and off the farm. As women, specifically women in Ag, our roles change as we continue to grow and evolve. Often with each change there can be a period of uncertainty and we adjust to what each role and season has to offer.  Annaliese is a Wisconsin girl, dairy farmer, wife and twi...

It’s officially planting season in our neck of the woods. I don’t know about you, but that means our family’s schedule gets turned upside down, sometimes for weeks on end. If you’re a farm wife, busy season might look different depending on your location, operation, or your role. If you’re not in agriculture, there may be a different time of year that looks extra chaotic compared to others. In tod...

On today’s episode, I am joined by my friend, Lou Bluth! Throughout her lifetime, Lou has been on quite the journey from growing up in Texas to meeting a red bearded farmer at college in Utah to getting established in a whole new world on a Mormon colony in Mexico and eventually finding freedom as a family by living as their authentic selves.  Lou and her husband, Bronson, have been on a journey o...

In today’s episode, I’m going to dive into a topic that has come up NUMEROUS times lately for both myself and amongst many other women in my life. Today is an opportunity for me to ask you, “are your goals what you actually want?” So often we latch onto a goal because we think it sounds good or we think it’s something we should achieve. But does that goal actually align with your values and what y...

In today’s episode, I am chatting with a new friend, Theresa Lear Levine! Throughout our conversation we talked about a tool called EFT tapping, unpacking goal trauma, understanding our subconscious mind alongside our conscious awareness, and aligning our goals to our values. It was SUCH a fascinating conversation that opened my eyes to so many new ideas and tools. I think I left our interview wit...

On today’s episode, join us for a bit of a behind-the-scenes as the ASCEND retreat coaches sit down over coffee (that’s already been drank) and chat about all the things. Over the last couple years, these women have become so near and dear to my heart. They’ve seen me at my absolute best and at my sobbing worst and I’m truly honored to coach alongside them and get to share their wisdom and insight...

On today’s episode I have the honor of chatting with Danna Larson of the Rural Revival Podcast. When I very first discovered podcasts back in 2019, her show was one of the first that I devoured. The stories that she shared had a huge impact on what I imagined to be possible for my life. Her storytelling shows incredible people in rural communities doing big things for their small towns. I continue...

“How did you quit your 9-5?” I get asked that question all the time. I've been hesitant to share my answer because I don’t feel like my story is one that anyone should look to for any sort of game plan or advice. But, it has gotten me to where I am today nonetheless. So in today’s episode, I’ll share my story of how I left my full time career to start my own business. I hope that you’re able to ta...

Today I have the honor of being joined by my sweet friend, Jenny Roth, to talk about having permission to build a life and business that you love. Back in October, there was a day where I reached out to several people to get myself the help I needed; both personally and professionally. One of those people was Jenny. Jenny is a copywriter and she and I have been working together ever since. She has...

I feel like an alternate title for this episode could be: “Here’s a Big Giant Life Update.” You, my sweet listener, have walked through this past season with me as I've navigated a lot of changes and put in a lot of work to heal and get to where I am today. So I wanted to bring you up to speed from the last couple weeks and share some lessons learned along the way. Oh also some pretty big news! In...

Do you have big dreams on your heart but find yourself saying “what if I fail” or “is this even possible” or “who am I to do this”? Today I want to dive into something that is such a common and frequent struggle amongst so many women in my life. Self doubt looks different for each of us, but there’s likely this nagging feeling of “who am I” to…*insert your own dream*. In today’s episode, I want to...

Today I have the joy of talking with Katelyn Duban. Katelyn shares her story of going from typing in the Google search bar “what do farm wives do” to now working full time on the farm and being the creator and host of the amazing show, The Rural Woman Podcast.

On today’s episode, I am joined by my new friend Dawn Marie! I actually had the joy of recording for her podcast last week and our conversation led me to understanding so many things about my own body that I just had to share with you! I know that so many women are on the journey to better understanding themselves through the inside out and truly supporting their holistic health along the way. In...

Today we’re digging into some things to keep in mind, and mindset shifts to make, as you pursue big goals in a small town. I recently asked my instagram audience about their biggest struggles as a small town dreamer and unsurprisingly, soooo many women shared nearly identical pain points. Whether you’re expanding the farm, building a business, starting to share online, beginning a health journey,...

Today’s guest, Emily Shaw, and I have been social media friends for a few years so bringing her on the podcast today felt extra fun and special! Our conversation was sparked by an instagram post about 5 strategies to create better habits. As I scrolled through the post nodding along, I knew we had to create this episode to share with you! I hope you find this topic and conversation as valuable as...

I see you. You have big dreams, goals, and intentions on your heart and you’re ready to make them happen NOW. Reflecting back on my year in 2022, I accomplished so many amazing things.

Our conversation tells the story of how they got to where they’re at today and some tips and lessons learned along the way.    In this epis...

In today’s episode, I walk you through a process of reflection and action planning to approach 2023 with intentionality.
