Living off of the land. Going off the grid. There is a mass conscience directed towards the desire to own a piece of property and return to an agrarian society. To be able to grow your own food and own a few of your own animals. In this episode we have a great conversation with Shawn & Beth who have been doing just that for over 40 years. Not only do they live off of their land 95% they have a heart to teach others. They spend much time speaking at conferences and their book, The Independent Farmstead is a must for anyone setting out on this awesome journey. If you want to really understand how the ecosystem really works, how we can learn to understand the ground, how you can create better food for your family, how we are being lied to and so much more don't miss this one.

How much do you know about Joe? That beverage that may be the start to your every day. We got to chat with Amanda Pumphrey, owner of Pumphrey and Beard Coffee Comany which is both a coffee house with two locations but also coffee roasters. Learn about that bean, (not a bean) we love and seemingly rely on so much. Coffee is very interesting starting with the plant perspective to the global marketplace of it to the cultures that have coffee as an important centerpiece. Of course as any authentic coffee talk conversation would have it; we meander, boy to we meander. Good conversation. P.S. Support your local coffee roasters!

We had the pleasure of having good conversation with Angie Craft, artist and owner of Sassafras Galleria and The Back Room Event Venue located in Wahoo, NE. Angie loves art and is a warrior dedicated to promoting art, aiding young artists and providing events and opportunities for artists of all types. She has done so much for the small town of Wahoo and for artists as she builds community through creativity. It was a perfect match up with yours truly two broads who feel the same and promote creativity every chance they get as well. More people NEED to indulge themselves in some type of creativity no matter the level you are at with it. The mere act of creating anything has the power to heal, gain fresh perspectives, puts things into better perspectives, interrupts worry, aids in creating a relaxed feeling, helps in problem solving and so much more yet many do not try to learn these truths. Fun cast about a subject they are all passionate about. Despite a mic problem of Lauri's it is still a great conversation.
