Episode Summary

Welcome back to Pioneer Mindset. In today's episode, we're diving back into a critical issue faced by many farmers, ranchers, and ag business owners. We'll be focusing on the challenges surrounding high leverage and its impact on not just businesses but also the legacies tied to them.

In this episode I share how our own operation has been impacted by leveraging our legacy and some of the things I've learned from those experiences:

• We expanded our cow/calf operation and I share some of the growing losses that came with that.
• I share how we don't always understand the weight or impact of highly leveraging our operation has.
• I dive into the importance of knowing our numbers and the power it gives when it comes to leveraging.
• You are not alone in facing these challenges.Finding a network or group of others who have experienced similar challenges can bring valuable insights to your own operation to help you work through obstacles.
