I always love when a farm kid goes to school, pursues a career, then uses that career to help out farmers. Monica Kramer McCojkey is a farm kid turned counselor who has returned to her roots helping out farmers in times of need. We talk about her upbringing and her journey to wanting to get back to address the issues facing farmers and farm families. We also chat a bit about how COVID has affected farm familes. Great Conversation! For links, go to our show notes page at https://agstateofmind.com/2020/09/21/asom-monica-kramer-mckonkey/

Today is a really cool episode of the podcast. My wife, Keri Medows, and I decided to record a podcast while we were on vacation this past week. This is something that I have been wanting to do for some time now, but it took us traveling 1300 miles away from home to get enough peace and space to make this happen. Today we talk about our growth as a couple, Keri's transition into farm life, and how we juggle all of the responisbilities in our life. Keri is a certified personal trainer and yoga instructor. To find more out about Keri and the services she provides, look her up on Instagram @KeriMedows. https://www.instagram.com/kerimedows/
