Welcome to the Country Proud Living Podcast, I'm your host LoriLynn.
Today I am interviewing my cowboy, and hubby! If you are interested in learning more about a dairy farm, today is your day! Steve graduated from the University of Minnesota with a Bachelor of Agricultural Business Administration. We are both proud alumni and love to cheer for the Gophers!  Row the Boat,  Ski-U-Mah, Go Gophers! 

Steve and his brother Bill bought their dads farm 30 years ago and have made many improvements over the years, in 2020 they added four Delaval milking robots and a robotic feed pusher, and a bedding robot this past year. 

Merryville Farm has been a part of the Waverly, MN community for generations and continues the tradition of farming with a third generation.

Welcome to the Country Proud Living Podcast, I'm your host LoriLynn.
Thanks for being here! Today I am sharing about Love, family, and boundaries and how we all have struggles in this area. This episode is something everyone can relate to. I was inspired to talk about this today because love, family, and boundaries are a part of everyone's life and along with the joy also comes the struggle.

Love is infinite and it expands, it is abundant! There isn't a limited supply in the world. Love is like the air we breathe there is more than enough for everyone so if you have a stingy heart and hold back from loving people....don't let that be your heart!

You can only be responsible for what you do, and you can't control others and what they do. How people treat you is a reflection of them,  not you. If you have a challenging family member in your life they probably need love the most. Love them through it, but don't be a doormat for them. Everyone has heartbreaking family stories. Everyone.  So if you do, may you find comfort in knowing that you are not alone.

My whole life changed when I realized I could be humble and calm yet still not tolerate disrespect and set solid boundaries to protect my energy.
This saying above has helped me immensely when challenging family dynamics occur.   I hope it helps you too!

Sharing another quote that I love so much! This one can really make you stop and think... so if you hold back from letting loved ones (especially the difficult ones) know how much you love them, you will live with that pain a long time when that opportunity is gone.  "The LOVE we fail to share is the only PAIN we live with."  Brian Biro
I encourage you to not wait to share love with those around you because one day it may be too late. Do it now.

Spring Colors I recommend for your home!
Colors of nature are timeless and brings the outdoors in! They are great options if you want to add some color but are unsure of where to start!
The colors in this Anthology were presented to me at a Interior Designers event I attended late last year where I was able to get a sneak peek into color forecasting which is my favorite part of my career!

"TWENTY YEARS FROM NOW
YOU WILL BE MORE
DISAPPOINTED BY THE
THINGS THAT YOU DIDN'T DO
THAN THE ONES YOU DID DO.

SO THROW OFF THE BOWLINES.
SAIL AWAY FROM THE SAFE HARBOR.
CATCH THE TRADE WINDS IN YOUR SAILS.
EXPLORE. DREAM. DISCOVER."

Mark Twain
1835-1910

3  BEAUTIFUL TRUTHS IN LIFE!

1) You have not yet experienced all of your happiest days!

2) What is meant for you is either already yours or it is on its way!

3) You still have all the time in the world to become all you wish to be!

Hello and welcome to the Country Proud Living Podcast!  Nurturing home, empowered self.   I am your host LoriLynn, and I am so happy you are here!   Carol  and I struck up a conversation a couple years ago about the Iconic Grace art piece and we reconnected to discuss it in more detail. Many of you have seen this iconic art piece and those that live in the Midwest will be very familiar with it and even those throughout the US and internationally will recognize it as well.  If you are like Carol and I who grew up seeing this artwork you will find its history and its ties to Minnesota very interesting.
The photograph "Grace" was adopted as the Minnesota state photograph in 2002.
The photograph “Grace,” depicting an elderly man bowing his head and giving thanks, was taken in Bovey, Minnesota in 1918 by Eric Enstrom.  A picture that seemed to say, “This man doesn’t have much of earthly goods, but he has more than most people because he has a thankful heart.”  Thanks for your support and stopping by today! If you could share this pod with your like-minded friends and family and please subscribe so you never miss an episode, it is one of the only ways my podcast will grow.
Love & Light, LoriLynn

Hello and welcome to the Country Proud Living Podcast!  Nurturing home, empowered self.   I am your host LoriLynn, and I am so happy you are here!   Pull up a chair, grab a hot cup of coffee or tea and let's have a cozy conversation.  I encourage you to take a leap forward in your life, this LEAP YEAR!   Sharing tips below to go for it! 
1) Preparing for the Leap: 

• What is your motivation? 
• Acknowledge the little risks you already take.
• Respond to well-meaning critics.
• Look down both roads, and if you stayed in the same spot you are today. 
• Think well of yourself,  trust in your ability to succeed. 

2) While in the air:

• Act Quickly. Don't put it off any longer. 
• Stop dwelling on the Negative.
• Don't put it off any longer. 
• Keep the past in the past. 
• Find support, from those that leaped.
• Accept transformation. 

3) After you land:

• Redefine success for you.
• Stop looking around. Comparison is the thief of JOY.  
• Fail. The idea is to simply to accept failure as a part of life and not something you must avoid. 
• Press on:  No matter the outcome .
• Leap often:  Taking risks and leaping into the unknown becomes easier when you do it more often.

If you could share this pod with your like-minded friends and family, it would mean the world to me.  Also, please subscribe so you never miss an episode and leave a review, it is one of the only ways my podcast will grow.   Thanks for your support and stopping by today!    Love & Light, LoriLynn
