Let's talk about it… stress, anger, emotions. Why in a world of tough guys can we not talk about what's really on our mind? On this episode of the podcast Founder of BGA, Jesse Herrera, sits down with Mining Minds to talk about the mentality of miners. We discuss setting ego aside to confront issues within ourselves, the reality of drinking through issues, and being ok with not being ok. We talk about noticing and reaching out to co-workers in need, methods and ideas to help one another, and ultimately maintaining that positive Pedro attitude. Join Mining Minds as we Welcome Jesse Herrera back to the Face!

For the first time Mining Minds took to the road to podcast away from home. The Eastern Nevada Society for Mining, Metallurgy & Exploration held their annual fundraiser event in Ely Nevada, and we had the opportunity to speak with many of the individuals and businesses attending. We met some amazing people, had great conversations, and were able to talk a little trash while podcasting from hole number one at the White Pine County Golf Course. In this extra-long podcast, we get a great picture of what it looks and feels like to live in a mining community. Join Mining Minds as we hit the road to The Eastern Nevada SME fundraiser event.
