  • EP:11 Building Your Support Network

    Hey!
    Today's episode is a bit more grounding. During this episode I want you to really think about the situations in your day-to-day operations that work you up or emotionally stress you out. 
    Yikes! Right?
    Over the seasons, and as our farm and business has grown, I've learned the immense importance of having a network around me to talk to. Having the ability to share our wins and our losses is so vitally important to our wellbeing and personally my mental stability. Yes, there are actions that we can take to streamline our processes as growers to alleviate  some of the stressors, but that doesn't fix all of our problems.
    In this episode I'll touch on a few points regarding different audiences that I see and how they play a role in forming my support network.
