    Jan 8 2026

    • winter as a natural season for rest and planning
    • cutting long resolution lists to two core priorities
    • health-first mindset with keto and consistency
    • simplifying workloads by removing tasks before adding
    • switching from anhydrous to liquid with precise placement
    • spoon-feeding crops with sulfur, boron, and drone foliar passes
    • pausing feeder cattle due to tight margins and risk
    • advocating hedging and protection for those feeding cattle
    • reinforcing small family farms and buying direct local food
    • inviting connection on social and email

  • We Tried To Rest And Accidentally Scheduled It Like Harvest
    Dec 4 2025

    Send us a text

    We explore why we’ve confused numbing with real rest and how that drains health, clarity, and joy. We face time scarcity, guilt, and identity to make space for intentional recovery and purpose-driven work, even during busy seasons on the farm.

    • health as the farm’s true asset
    • rest as active renewal not numbing
    • time scarcity and self-imposed deadlines
    • different work styles and family logistics
    • phone dopamine and overstimulation
    • guilt, identity, and “hard worker” stories
    • redefining success through a feminine lens
    • letting the team work while you step away
    • simple daily intentions and lock-screen prompts
    • single-task focus, low-stimulation evenings
    • practical plan: coffee shop sessions and boundaries
