When Farm Bureau Insurance was founded in 1919, our primary goal was to
promote and represent the interests of farmers within the state of Michigan.
And while our service offerings have expanded to include all types of industries, we’re
still very proud of our agricultural roots.
In this episode we take an inside look at AgroLiquid's IQ Hub with today’s guest, Emily Crambell, the Education & Outreach Manager of AgroLiquid’s IQ Hub!
If you haven’t been out to visit the IQ Hub yet, it’s a phenomenal education center with
all kinds of interactive exhibits that help teach the community where their food comes
from.

In our previous episode with John we talked about how to tell when it’s time to
reinvent yourself. Maybe you feel stuck in a bad relationship... a dead end job... or the
path you’re on doesn’t align with what you REALLY want...
BUT making big changes in your life can be scary and difficult.
That’s why John swears that there are 3 ESSENTIAL skills you need to master in order
to be successful at reinventing your life. In this episode, we take an in-depth look at all three of those essential skills!

Guest:
John Mashni, Writer for The Intensive Life

Have you ever felt stuck? Like you don’t love where you are (in fact, you might
even hate it), but you’re not sure what your next move should be?
Or maybe you’re so freaked out of change that you feel too paralyzed by the fear of
change to do anything at all?
In this episode, we are joined by blogger and reinvention coach, John Mashni, who shares plenty of insight to help answer all these questions you may have.

Most of you that know me know that I’m passionate about health and I think it’s
so important - especially as a business owner - to take care of yourself. But if you're like me... you’re busy... maybe you have a family... maybe you feel like you’re being pulled in a lot of directions. So how can you take good care of your body and your mind while running a successful
business? In this episode, we answer that and much more!

When you think about your current employees, I’m sure there’s some that come
to mind who are irreplaceable; the employees your business could NOT run without.
BUT, the million dollar question is: how do you keep these people around? Better yet, how
do you attract them in the first place? In this episode we discuss this and much more!
