Want to know how to future-proof your family farm for generations ahead? This is the podcast episode for you. Our guest this week is fellow podcaster Ben Law, aka 'The Financial Bloke'. Ben is a former financial advisor who now works as a strategic coach, helping farming families grow, protect and transition their wealth across generations.
Ben shares his background in financial law, the reasons behind his career shift and the work he does now with farming families. He explains the common challenges faced by farming families in succession planning and his approach to guiding them through the difficulties.
Tune in to hear:
- How to avoid the common pitfalls that derail family succession plans.
- Why financial success isn’t enough to keep the family business strong.
- What proactive families are doing now to set up for smooth transitions later.
- How to prepare both on-farm and off-farm kids for their future roles.

Boysober
Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
