Macey Hurst has been a friend of mine for quite sometime now. She was guest way back on Episode 25 of the podcast. So much has changed for Macey since then. Her and I have actually had many chances to work together in her time with Missouri Cattlemen's Association. We chat today with Macey about how her mental health journey has evolved since we last chatted. We talk about her life transitions and how an unexpected source gave her the encouragement to take the next step on the road to better mental health. Find Macey on Instagram

James Rogers and Marissa Taylor of Northway Ranch Services joined me to discuss the work they are doing to free up ranchers to do the work they love and the work at which they excel. We discuss the importance, especially in the West, of managing stakeholder relationships between the rancher and those public and private partners with which they will inevitably have to do business.
Today we're joined by Synne Budal to discuss GPS fencing technology created by NoFence. This innovative idea has the potential to revolutionize agriculture with its ease of use and the lack of labor it requires.
