Tanner Winterhof, co-host of the well known Farm4Profit Podcast, joins me today on the AgriMinds podcast. We dive deep into just how difficult but powerful it can be to let go and delegate tasks, how we can lean on others as a support system rather than viewing them as competition, and how even though you might get advice and encouragement from someone that does not mean you have to do exactly what they do or say.

Are you in agriculture and feeling the weight of it all?

The long hours. The responsibility. The constant pull between your work, your family, and everything else that depends on you.

Maybe you’ve found yourself second-guessing decisions, overcommitting, or wondering how long you can keep going at this pace.

If that sounds familiar—you’re in the right place.

Welcome to the AGRIMINDS Podcast.

This is where agriculture professionals come to strengthen how they think, decide, and lead—intentionally.

I’m your host, Kacee Bohle—coach, speaker, and founder of AGRIMINDS. I help ag professionals navigate the real challenges of leadership, without burning out in the process.

Each week, we’ll talk through what’s actually happening behind the scenes—

the pressure, the expectations, the mental load—and give you practical tools to move forward with more clarity and confidence.

Inside this podcast, you’ll find conversations around:

– Burnout and stress in agriculture

– Leadership and decision-making

– Boundaries at work and at home

– Confidence, mindset, and communication

– And creating a life that works for you—not one that constantly drains you

This isn’t about doing more.

It’s about doing what matters—better.

So you can lead well, show up fully, and build a life that feels aligned… both at home and in the field.

This episode with Christie Apple, also known as Crop Scout Christie, gave me major chills. She shared some emotional parts of her journey on how she developed a passion for agriculture which ultimately lead to her role as an agronomist. Christie has a unique ability to relate, educate, and motivate others to take a look at soil health, operational health, and even mental health. She is truly a one of kind and I am so honored to have been able to spend "Wheat Wednesday" with her.
