I love this podcast. What really impresses me is that it relates to (even)me. I’m 56 years old. I am the mom of eight sons and one daughter – all grown now. You have pulled out the dreamer/goal setter in me, even though I’m sure most of your audience are younger with young kids at home. Thank you!?
WOW! 8!SONS! Your daughter must be amazing to deal with all those brothers ? Thanks!
Hey Aust !
I really liked this Podcast. However, I have to say, this podcast made me angry. I had a very similar moment about 12 years ago. Then as I listened to this, I started to realize that I pushed a lot of my issues aside, and just really said ” This is not happening” I have listened to this podcast 4 times now… Anyway, What you have said in this podcast really hit home to me on a very personal level. Relationships, Health, Life Style, Choices as to what is right and wrong in my life… I just turned 60 in July, and I want to do so much more, and I believe at this time if I just shut up and listen I might just get more out of my life than I have. Thank You for the realization !
Also I think you should put in the description the titles of the music you have in the background!!
Rick,
I’m glad to have made you angry ? anger is a powerful motivator. Go get em!
When I was pregnant with my youngest 13 yrs ago I had some bumps forming on my head which I thought were caused from excess oil build up from my follicles. I was wrong they were tumors, 5 of the 18 tumors were cancerous. I was lucky they were forming in the skin layers and not the bone and lower. I refused chemical treatment due to my pregnancy and opted for the attempt to surgically remove them ( which they did successfully no signs of any remission to date). So bald, pregnant and worried I started reviewing my life and that’s when I looked at wildlife rehabilitation and farming, I went out did a degree for forestry and wildlife, did conservation certificates, got animal care certificates and then started researching farming techniques. I looked at my debts saw I was about $60K in the hole made payment plans to get rid of them- that took about 7 years because of having low funds. I am still set on my dream of my farm and its closer than ever because I went and got a Personal Support Worker Certificate so I can build up funds and I enjoy doing it. I have best of both worlds I help people and animals (rehab small wildlife,birds squirrels, a skunk and possum) I have a set date to finally purchase my property and move to the province I want to farm in (March 2021 I will purchase the property and June 25 2021 we will be packing the truck and heading out) I have 4 boys 1 girl and 4 granddaughters, my 2 youngest boys will be coming with me and helping on this new life , I look forward to it.
Wow Valerie what a story. I am so glad you made it out healthy, and have kids and grandkids to enjoy on the other side! I’m excited to hear how close you are to starting the homestead! Keep us posted!
I am loving where this podcast is going and can’t wait to hear the rest!
Dave, you’ve been there for every podcast episode ever. I am glad to have you along for this one!
I’m finding inspiration in this podcast. I’ve dabbled in ‘farming’, raising different animals; ponies, chickens, rabbits and German Shepherds. I’ve always had a desire to farm. I’ve let fear prevent me from following that dream. I’ve let family convince me that I couldn’t make it. AND it has been more ‘comfortable’ to work at a job for the steady income. This podcast is helping me to get through the fear and do what I love and enjoy. Thanks.
