A Change of the Seasons: Saying Goodbye
Taking you along with me on our farm, introducing you to our lovely animals, and bringing you into our lives has been nothing but a pleasure.

Why is Life like a Tapestry?
Let's be real—do you struggle with making decisions? Do you agonize over the next step, spending so much time weighing risks and doing research that you end up stuck and wanting to quit?

What will you do with this one wild and precious life?
You know how frustrating it can be when you’re exhausted and you finally get to lay your head on the pillow at night and then that thought comes in, “I didn’t get anything done today.”? It’s an awful feeling. And then the next thought is, and “When I wake up, I’m going to have to repeat all those things again.” It’s not very satisfying and it can be totally overwhelming. Well, I’m going to tell you about how farm life inspired us to try a different way of approaching work. Greg and I wil...

When a couple discovers their third thing?
Every couple needs a "we" or a third thing—a focal point that exists not solely within one individual but rather something shared between them. Something cherished mutually, binding them together. There is an article by American poet Donald Hall, that left a lasting impression on me. The article is called “The Third Thing.” In it, Hall and his wife Jane Kenyon, also a poet, moved to a rustic farm in Vermont with a pond. The pond magnetized them and created a unit of belonging. It, and the poe...

A Frog Family Lives in our Basement
This season, we've set out to capture and celebrate ordinary moments in our lives on the farm. Because even the little things like the basics and the mundane are important.

In this episode, I’m going to tell you all about our little frog family. And Greg and I are going to talk about our bonds with them. We are going to marv...

Season 3: Ordinary Moments On The Fiber Farm
It turns out that we humans are terrible at estimating the value of the present. There is a study I just read by Harvard researchers. They found that as time goes on, we regret how easily we let moments go. So, maybe the question, “What’s next?” doesn’t need to be answered by moving or with a new big adventure or project. What if we decided to stop underestimating the value of the present in our own lives and started figuring out how to capture and learn from those ordinary ...

This is the Way Things are Right Now
This is the last episode of season 2. In this episode, I dive into the question, why do I write this podcast? What does reflection of this kind mean to me and others? And when the magic seems dimmed, how can we get it back? I talk to Laura Davis, author, writing teacher and retreat leader about the act of writing and its healing potential especially when it’s shared with others. Greg and I reflect on the podcast season and our farm life. And you won’t want to miss this—while at the ...

Finding the Courage to Ask for Help
Humans are no different than guanacos or sheep or any other animal that finds comfort in the presence of others. We rely on each other for help and support, warmth and protection. But as humans, sometimes it’s difficult to ask for help and support.In this episode, we dive into the question: “Why is it so hard to connect with others and create a sense of community?” I share the beginnings of what may become a vibrant fiber producers guild, and introduce you to my partner in this endeavor, Kati...
