Listen "4. A Reminder to Keep Going, Even When it's Hard"
Episode Synopsis
In today’s episode, I want to encourage you to keep going even when it gets hard. We’ll talk about the power of community and connection (especially living rurally), persevering even when you can’t see your destination, and the growth and confidence you gain when you don’t quit.
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.
