Sober October continues on the Ag State of Mind Podcast. Today, we go to South Carolina to speak with my friend Daniel Hayes. Daniel and I first connected over our mutual friend Clay Conry's podcast "Working Cows." We speak to Daniel about his incredible journey through sobriety after a quite tumultuous past. We talk about how both his faith in God and his relationship with his wife helped him become the man who he is today. We then shift the conversation to him transitioning over from cattle to hair sheep on his operation and how that is benefiting his land and his way of life. If you want to reach out to Daniel his email is bootstrapfarmsc@gmail.com

Welcome to Sober October Week 2. Today I have the pleasure of chatting with Chris Beaudry. Chris is a farmer from Northern Saskatchewan with a remarkable journey of his path to recovery. I first read of Chris in my friend Allan Kehler’s book “MENtal Health: It’s Time To Talk.” I was then directed by another friend, Lesley Kelly, to speak with Chris about his story of sobriety. My son, and editor, Levi told me that it was one of his favorite episodes. I am very excited to share Chris with you all. I think you will find a lot of relatability in his story
