October 02, 2024Overcoming Overwhelm & Living Your Dreams with Christine Wilson
What would you do if you had all the time you needed?
Join me in this fascinating episode with my friend Christine Wilson, mom of six, licensed professional counselor-turned-coach, and the founder of the first whole brain planner on the market, the Think Time Planner. And she is also now my neighbor!
After creating a pen + paper neuroscience experiment in her garage, Christine developed a whole-brain process to help people get their brain on their team, fight distractions, and start living their dreams. As one who struggled with ADHD, distractions and overwhelm, Christine knew how hard it was to find time for what mattered most, and she wanted to help herself and others overcome these obstacles.
For 8 years now, Christine’s company, Think Time, has been changing lives and equipping people to get more of the right things done in less time.
LISTEN IN, and let Christine teach you how to “get your brain working like a Tesla rather than a 1950s Ford.” You’ll learn some surprising strategies for overcoming overwhelm and living your dreams - whether in your business or day-to-day life.

July 03, 2024Love Your Imperfect Home
In a world of home design influencers and Pinterest perfection, it’s easy to look at our homes and highlight the imperfections or things that need to be fixed...rather than see the beauty that’s already there.
JOIN ME, and let’s reframe things a little bit. Let's look at our homes in a different way. This episode is a celebration of the places in our homes where our beautiful daily lives are lived - all the cracks, creaks, and unfinished places. 🏡

June 18, 2024You Belong Among the Wildflowers
What's a dream you haven't pursued because you're not sure how to move forward?
JOIN ME in this episode where I share a story about not giving up on a dream that began almost 10 years ago of growing wildflowers in my urban Dallas backyard...to my current day-to-day on a Tennessee flower farm. This is a story of a journey...of putting one foot in front of the other, learning, growing, and finally seeing the harvest. 💐
At the end, I also provide you with lots of tips if you want to grow your own wildflowers in your own space, whether you live in the city, country, or suburbia.
Listen in! 🌸

Let's explore HOW we can we take seriously the great privilege we’ve been given to tend and cultivate good things on this earth - not just on Earth Day (April 22nd), but as a way we live our lives all the time. This episode is chock-full of inspiration and ideas for you to do just that, right where you are.

February 29, 2024Nourishing Your Family & Community with Sophia Eng
Join me as I chat with Sophia Eng, a first-generation Vietnamese American, sought-after speaker, podcast host, and author of the brand new, beautiful cookbook, The Nourishing Asian Kitchen. She’s also one of my fellow Tennessee farmers! Sophia recently left a successful Silicon Valley career to start a 5-acre permaculture mini farm with her family in east Tennessee in the foothills of the Appalachian mountains. 🌄
As a busy, full-time working mom and homesteader, Sophia Eng is making nourishing, simple Asian recipes doable for anyone. 🍜 As Sophia says, “If I can do it, you can do it. It starts with one recipe at a time.”
In this episode, you’ll go on a journey with Sophia from urban California to a homestead in East Tennessee and hear how her Vietnamese heritage guided her along the way as she wrote her cookbook and started a farm. As she shares the powerful steps she took to turn her family towards land stewardship, nourishment, and community, you’ll be empowered to implement some of these practices in your own life and home.
Some of the topics we talk about:
Taking risks & living boldly

Multi-generational living & preserving family heritage

How to prepare for the future through healthy food & lifestyle choices

Why bartering and trading are practices we need to keep alive

“The beautiful web of being in community” and why it’s important
LISTEN IN, and let Sophia inspire you to nourish yourself and your family well, starting today! 💚

February 17, 2024The No-Edit Life with Steven Bailey (part 4)
He’s back! Once again, there are NO EDITS and no plan for what to talk about! 🫢
Join me for another fun conversation with inspiring entrepreneur and incredible chef, my fellow farmer and adventurer, my husband, Steven Bailey. On the evening of a date night at home, Steven and I sit down to chat together again in the studio here on Kindred Farm about the joys and challenges of the huge building project we’re currently in the midst of, and so much more. What we share in this freestyle convo is what you get to hear!
A few of the things we discuss in this episode…
Carrying the weight of responsibility for a big dream project

How you can approach the “big barn project” in your own life

The opportunity to leave a legacy through what we create here on earth

Why Steven loves developing his artisan pizza recipes and why we want to offer more dinners, classes, and pizza experiences in the near future
There’s no shortage of creativity, but how do two dreamers dial in what we’re actually going to do in this new, incredible space we’re building? Join us as we figure it all out! 💛
Steven Bailey is a private chef, regenerative farmer, menu-creator, and farm-to-table consultant. Raised by a mother from the rice fields of South Korea and a father who grew up on a North Carolina tobacco farm, Chef Steven Bailey (a.k.a. The Korean Farmer) has been trained by his taste buds and unique Korean/Southern cultural heritage rooted in food and agriculture. As a private chef for his weekly clients and special occasion dinners, Steven crafts creative and inspiring food - from kimchi tacos to hand cut pappardelle, and everything in between. Steven attended Baylor University in Waco, TX, where he began cooking and baking and was probably the only guy in his fraternity to own a Kitchen Aid Mixer. Right out of college and living in Dallas, Steven started a missions travel company called 963 Missions and a fair-wage coffee company before founding Urban Acres, an organic produce co-op, market, and urban farm, in 2009. After selling Urban Acres in 2015, he moved his family to the rolling green hills of Santa Fe, Tennessee where they broke ground and began Kindred Farm.

February 08, 2024"Root To Rise"
This episode is one of my favorites! “Root to rise” is a phrase that my yoga instructor always used to say, and I’ve never forgotten it. What’s beneath the surface - the roots - are just one part of the story. We root so we can rise strong above the surface. In this episode, I share inspiring and practical ideas from farming and gardening on why strong roots are so important, and we explore how rising strong is such an important part of rootedness.
Let's choose wisely what we're rooting ourselves in, because it determines how healthy our roots are going to be…and where our story is going to go.
