How Our Minds Could’ve Never Led Us to Our Amazing Montana Property (But Our Inner Knowing Did)
In today’s episode I reflect on the amazing combination of things we have in our Montana property and home. How it’s the most perfectly-tailored-to-us combination of mountain views, conifer trees, horse pastures, wildlife, opportunities for tractor and pickup truck adventures for my husband and kids, privacy and yet neighbors nearby, and so very much more. How it’s a compilation of so many things dear to our hearts and to be honest, many things I longed for, but had given up on believing I could ever have. And how, despite our years of well-h...

Getting Through the Hard Parts of Starting a Horse Ranch in Montana
Today I have a frank and heartfelt discussion about the many hard parts and challenges we've faced on our adventures in ranching journey - both lately, and over the past year. In fact, there have been so many challenges and hard parts that I dedicate roughly 35 minutes of this episode to sharing things like horse feeding and horse herd dominance antics, horse catching theatrics, redoing electric fencing on an entire pasture and still having it not work properly woes, massive horse shelter delays, and so much more. But I also talk about how despite all...

Montana Transitions: Wine Country to Ranch Dog, One Horse to Two Horse Ranch, & More Lifestyle Changes
Today I talk about the many transitions we’ve experienced since going on our adventure in ranching. I share how our dog changed from a suburban, “wine country” dog who'd never even seen a horse, to a Montana ranch dog. How we went from a one-horse property to a two-horse property and back again. And I share other transitions we’ve navigated as we’ve gone on our life adventures lately and in the past. . . .

How a Video of a Couple Walking Down Their Driveway Inspired Us To Move to Montana
Today I recall how before we came to visit Montana for the first time, I stumbled upon a Facebook video of a couple walking down their long and beautiful Montana driveway to get their mail. I share how that video deeply affected me and seemed like such an unattainable “dream." And I reflect on the wonderful feeling of appreciation I have now that we have our own long and beautiful Montana driveway to walk down and get our mail. . . .

How We Found Ourselves Moving To & Starting a (Small) Horse Ranch in Montana
In this first episode I talk about how we felt called to move to Montana and found ourselves on an unexpected adventure of starting a small horse ranch here. I share how we didn’t know anything about living on a larger piece of property, and how that launched us into a series of adventures in "ranching." Finally I talk about how I started this podcast to entertain you or possibly inspire you to go on your own "adventure" of living on your own larger piece of property. . . .
