From City to Cow Girl: Unexpected Path into Ag


Listen Later

#48: You don’t have to be raised on a farm to find your place in agriculture, and today’s guest is proof of that. In this episode, we’re joined by Ellen Cushing, a fellow dairy friend who grew up in the suburbs of Chicago (yes, really!) and found her way into the ag world. Whether you're ag-curious or simply love hearing about unexpected career paths, this convo is for you.

In this episode:

  • Meet Ellen: Her journey from suburban life to dairy life

  • How to get involved in ag – even if you didn’t grow up in it

  • Why imposter syndrome is normal, but shouldn't stop you

  • The value of fresh voices and new perspectives in agriculture

  • How the industry can be more welcoming and why that matters

  • Weekly Obsessions: cookie dough dates, coffee creamer and Netflix watches

Whether you’ve been in ag forever or are just dipping your boots in – this one’s full of impactful advice, laughs, and reminders that there’s room for everyone.
