Crystal Blin

As I learn and grow in life, I have found that I live in the AND space more often than not.  My friend, Crystal, has talked about living in the and space for ages.  She is the queen of being this AND that and being so much more than just one thing.  So as I have been rolling this part of life around this year, she has been on my mind.  I knew we needed to talk about this topic together.  I hope her thoughts and our conversation give you a little bit of permission to live in your AND as well.

I've been talking about the podcast a lot lately and thought maybe that conversation about the purpose of what we do here should be revisited.  It's easy for all of us to lose sight of what we are doing in this space and knowing who you are is first and always the focus.  In this episode, I go through those guideposts and those reasons for coaching and for podcasting.  I hope they help you, too.

Tara and Natalie are rural women who I have followed online for years.  We have so many mutual friends and a deep love for agriculture that it made a ton of sense for us to get together and have a fun conversation.  I admire their drive to learn and love their goals to help amplify women in rural ag lives.  While this conversation didn't go in the direction any of us expected (when does it??), it was such a good one.  Discover Ag Podcast https://www.elevateyouragstory.com
