Most family farm operations are run on emotion—and that’s exactly why so many are collapsing. In this episode, Jace Young sits down with Legacy Farmer Business Coach Katie Taylor to talk about the mindset shifts, strategic moves, and leadership skills farm families must embrace if they want to survive and thrive in today's ag economy.

Today’s episode hits on a tough truth: nobody is coming to save you.

In this episode, I dive into the difference between reacting and responding. Often, when we react, it’s out of pure emotion—something triggers us, and we fire back without thinking, often leading to regrets and outcomes we don’t want. But God doesn’t react; He responds. Today, I’m breaking down how this principle applies in business, relationships, and life in general.
By creating space and choosing to respond thoughtfully, we can ...

In this episode of the Legacy Farmer Podcast, I dive into a message that’s been hitting me hard lately: God created you to create. I've been intentional about connecting with God daily, and today, He reminded me that He put us here to act on the things He’s calling us to do. I’ll be sharing how fear, doubt, and ego can keep us stuck, and how trusting that small, quiet voice can lead to powerful changes not only in our lives but in ...
Ever felt like everything in your life was falling apart? I’ve definitely been there. In 2017, my family and I took a big leap, moving from Kansas to St. George, Utah, for what seemed like a promising opportunity. But just five months in, that opportunity disappeared, and we found ourselves back in Kansas, facing disappointment and uncertainty.
During that tough time, I questioned everything—my choices, my path, my purpose. It felt...
