Farmer

What do you do?

I sold my business, now I'm building a farm. I'm adding sheep, getting new regenerative farming partners, experimenting with other crops and on a steep farming learning curve.

Why?

I've achieved financial freedom and now have time to experiment. I love horses, nature and living on a farm.

What should we read?

I love the History Chicks podcast. So many books, hard to pick a favorite. I like Crucial Conversations by Patterson Grenny McMillan and Switzler. Anything by Pat Lencioni is good. In my new farmer life I'm listening to things like Dirt to Soil by Gabe Brown and watching movies like The Biggest Little Farm.
