Episode Synopsis
Welcome to the first episode of Leaders Of The West! I am beyond elated to welcome you to this podcast and have it be a continued pillar of what we do here. We have a lot of exciting things in store for this podcast, but on this first episode, I’ll be taking it all the way back to the inception of Of The West. Sharing who we are, why we’re here, and the mission of Leaders Of The West.
Jessie was born and raised on her family’s cattle ranch in Southern Idaho, which at an early age, instilled in her the importance of a strong work ethic, and a deep appreciation for the American West.
In addition to her lifelong involvement raising cattle, Jessie has had over a decade’s worth of experience in print and digital media, both writing for and producing various agriculture and western fashion publications, as well as freelancing in ag and western communications.
As someone who has been on all sides of the spectrum—as a job seeker, a business owner, someone looking for various service providers, and as a freelancer—Jessie deeply understands the obstacles one must navigate when job hunting or looking to hire for employment or project purposes in the west.
Jessie’s proudest accomplishment(s) in life is that of her family—her husband Justin, her son, Jhett, and baby girl, Jaxyn.
