He’s living proof that organic farming isn’t just about growing food—it’s about growing a lifestyle.Whether you're running a business, building a brand, or just trying to feel better and live longer, this episode is a blueprint for building wealth from the inside out. The truth is, you can’t enjoy freedom or fortune if your health is failing.And you don’t need a private chef or a fitness coach on speed dial.

Jim brings this message home from the fields of his own farm, showing how the path to prosperity begins with what’s on your plate—and how you treat your body.This is the perfect episode to share with a friend, play on your morning walk, or revisit when you're feeling stuck.
