    Ep 138 - From Rock-Bottom to Sustained Success

    Ep 138 - From Rock-Bottom to Sustained Success

    Who here has felt real financial duress and overwhelming stress and hardship in this game called farming? I feel this is relevant and real for so many - it isn’t always an easy game to play.
     
    In this podcast it gives me great pleasure to interview FOA Alumni Members Cassandra & Andrew (Rusty) Kath.
     
    From start-up to established, from 50 cows to 500 cows, and from financially and personally broken to a professional and lasting success, the Kathleigh Farms story is now just as much one to watch as it is one to appreciate for their achievement so far.
     
    Years ago, Andrew & Cassandra found themselves in a destructive share-farming relationship, placing immense pressure them financially and personally. At rock-bottom, Andrew & Cass dug-deep, focused on themselves and on making meaningful change. They made a massive commitment to join the FOA Community, and with grit, learning and determination have transformed their business and lives.
     
    Over the last 5 years, we have seen Kathleigh Farms grow from humble beginnings to being a truly high-performing and professional farm business. We now see this emerging business with the systems, business model, foundations and team to support continued profitability and sustained growth.
     
    In this interview we explore:
    the importance of focusing on our MINDSET as farmers;
    how scarcity and fear-based thinking can limit us;
    why doing business with people with similar values is so important;
    how surrounding yourself with good people can be a catalyst for change; and
    how making our own growth can change everything for the better.
     
    We are proud of the resilience, optimism and confidence Andrew & Cassandra both now enjoy, the way in which they have overcome adversity on their journey, and the results they now enjoy.
     
    In this interview there is mention of Mark Kluwer’s ‘Breath & Breakthrough’ Men’s Retreat and Tracy Secombe’s Soul Pleaser Program – two programs we recommend to those interested.
     
    Thank you Cass & Rusty for your openness and willingness to share. We feel fortunate to have you such active and generous members of the FOA Community, and such valued members of the FOA Team.
     
    There are some incredible insights in this – for the first generation farmer and for those feeling real stress and pressure in terms of your reality right now.
     
    Use this as inspiration that with focus, better thinking and deep determination good things can come.
     
    Sincerely,
    Jeremy Hutchings & The Farm Owners Academy Team

    EPISODE 137 It Is Our BUSINESS MODEL That Can Set Us Free

    EPISODE 137 It Is Our BUSINESS MODEL That Can Set Us Free

    So many farming families we meet have businesses that are completely dependent on them. In addition, so many farm owners across Australia’s have business models that are not risk-aware, sufficiently profitable, sustainable, or optimal over time.
     
    Is your business model delivering you the outcomes you want from your farm?
     
    So often we see farmers ‘rinsing and repeating’ business models that have worked in the past, only to find they are not optimal or even relevant in our current economic climate.
     
    To quote Einstein: “Doing the same thing over and again and expecting a different result, is the definition of insanity.”
     
    With inflation, increased interest rates and softening commodity prices, it has never been more important to actively stress-test the potential and resilience of the business model you have, then seek to refine, re-engineer and adapt it to ensure it is profitable long-term AND relevant in the current economic climate.
     
    The question is, HOW?
     
    In this podcast, I speak to this, then advocate for a 90-minute webinar that Farm Owners Academy developed, revealing, “Simple Budgeting for a Profitable Farm”.
     
    For anyone wanting to learn how to review, critique and refine their business model… AND master the key skills needed to set down a meaningful budget or cashflow forecast for their business, then click here and watch (a recording of) this webinar:
     
    www.farmownersacademy.com/businessmodelling
     
    There were over 1,100 farmers registered for this event, and so I feel it is relevant for so many of you right now!
     
    Thank you to Greg Johnsson, Sam Johnsson and the FOA Team for the significant effort you have put into making this webinar possible.
     
    Enjoy, and I look forward to hearing the change you make on the other side of this significant session.
     
    Here’s to the crafting of new, current, and winning farm business models across this community!
     
    Sincerely,
     
    Jeremy Hutchings & The Farm Owners Academy Team
     
    P.S. Did you know that our core program – the Platinum Mastermind was created to help you maximise the profitability of your farm? We now benchmark over $2bn in farm assets annually and we work with over 150 farm owners to help them improve their financials.

    Episode 136 - Is It My Money Mindset Holding Me Back

    Episode 136 - Is It My Money Mindset Holding Me Back

    I love the concept that perhaps our subconscious programming is the thing that is holding us back.
     
    I also like the concept that money is just a tool to give us what we want in life.
     
    However, I believe that many of us have a SCARCITY or ABUNDANCE mindset toward money.
     
    I like the idea of visualising money as ‘fun tickets’ to be used and enjoyed for me and others, now and in the future.
     
    Throughout my journey, I have gotten comfortable with the fact that money:
     
    Is not hard to come by
    Is not beyond my control
    Is not the ‘root of all evil’ and
    that it CAN ‘grow on trees!’
     
    How is your mindset toward money serving you?
     
    In this episode, I call on Investment Specialist and Freedom Trader Terry Tran, to explore:
     
    How his attitude toward money has changed.
    Where the previous money mindset he inherited might have taken him.
    How to think like an INVESTOR rather than a worker.
    His beliefs around and approach to making money and investing now.
    What it means to create a truly abundant, fulfilled and wealthy life.
     
    As a first-generation Aussie who came here as a refugee on a boat as a child, I feel Terry is a true example of how we CAN change our lives by changing our psychology. He has a great insight into what is holding the ‘average Aussie farmer’ back from creating off-farm wealth.
     
    Terry has a FREE LIVE online training exclusive for our Farm Owners community called ‘How to Create Off-Farm Wealth Consistently and Safely’ on Tuesday the 5th of March. I recommend you make this a priority – register here: https://www.thefreedomtrader.com/farmownersacademy/
     
    It is always great to connect with Terry, have him on our podcast, and see him support farming families across our community.
    I hope there is something in this episode of substance for those of you who enjoy it with us.
     
    Thank you.

    Episode 135 - What It Takes To Achieve Greatness - Lessons From A World Champion

    Episode 135 - What It Takes To Achieve Greatness - Lessons From A World Champion

    When people succeed at the highest level, often all we see of them is their endeavour and their achievement.
     
    We never really get to hear of the challenge, the hardship or the immense struggle that is behind the enduring success.
     
    There can be so many lessons relevant to how, as farmers, we can better face the challenges that come our way and overcome adversity and change.
     
    In this episode, I feel deeply privileged to interview Anna Meares – 11-time world champion and the greatest female track cyclist of all time.
     
    Throughout Anna’s sporting career, she achieved:
     
    2 gold, 1 silver, 3 bronze over four consecutive Olympics
    11 gold, 10 silver, 6 bronze at World Championships
    5 gold, 2 silver, 1 bronze at Commonwealth Games
     
    Anna also has many titles including the Institute of Sport’s "Best Of The Best" inductee and is a Hall of Fame recipient, flag-bearer and Captain at our 2016 Olympic Games. She is now a 2024 Chef de Mission, coach, mentor and teacher to our current era of Olympian legends...
     
    What impressed me the most about my time with Anna was her courage, grit, strength and sheer determination. With all of this, I am in awe of her humility, her generousness, her vulnerability, and her authenticity.
     
    After an unmatched career as an athlete, Anna now finds joy and fulfilment in her endeavour to stand behind people, be in service and support others to achieve at their highest levels.
     
    So many great lessons for all of us on what it takes to lock in meaningful goals and achieve our best.
     
    Thank you, Anna, you are truly a great Australian.

    Episode 134 - What Is My Purpose In Life?

    Episode 134 - What Is My Purpose In Life?

    Throughout our lives, and often at this time of year, we can find ourselves reflecting and asking important questions like;
    Why am I here?
    What am I doing this for?
    What is it that is my purpose in life?
    What do I want for my life?
    How do I want to be remembered?
    Over my business journey, I have been lucky enough to study with and learn from one of the great business minds of our time, Marshall Thurber. In his teachings, Marshall emphasises that there are universal laws (laws of nature) that, when applied to our businesses and lives, can offer us so much certainty and confidence and set a robust foundation on which to see our results grow exponentially.
    In this episode, and in my attempt to answer these questions, I offer an insight into the Law of Precession - how we can apply it to our lives, how to set down major, definite goals, and make a more meaningful impact as leaders, business owners and entrepreneurs.
     
    Linked with this, I share some lessons learned from one of my favourite books, “Think and Grow Rich” by Napoleon Hill – a read I recommend highly to you.
     
    From these teachings, I believe that we all have the opportunity to tap into a higher universal power if we are open. We all have access to infinite intelligence. This can help us achieve ‘more with less’, experience abundance (over scarcity), and, importantly, make more of an impact with the time we have - in family, community and industry.
     
    I hope you find my ramblings and reflections in this episode valuable. I hope it helps you answer these questions and set compelling goals for your new year. I look forward to hearing from you and receiving your feedback.
     
    To one unsuspecting Farm Owners Academy farmer member… thank you for this question, which prompted this episode.
     
    As we arrive at a new year, I want to thank you for tracking with us and for your loyalty to this podcast. It is a privilege for us to provide it.
     
    If you know someone we should interview, let us know via the Profitable Farmer Facebook Group or by emailing support@farmownersacademy.com.
     
    What we can achieve for our families and in our lives can be beyond our comprehension if we learn and apply the generalised principles…!
     
    With gratitude,

    Episode 133 - Making a farm completely professional, Sam & Carla Armytage

    Episode 133 - Making a farm completely professional, Sam & Carla Armytage

    As farm business owners, we can often be operating at intense and unsustainable levels for extended periods of time. Many times, the farm comes first, and so many other important things take the back seat.
     
    Our farms can be under-resourced, our teams insufficient, our realities out of control and operations completely dependent upon us. Our plans are in our heads, marriages out of alignment - husbands, wives and families missing out on what life and family are truly meant to be about.
     
    That is where Platinum Mastermind members Sam & Carla Armytage found themselves.
     
    Let’s be very real for a minute: the pressures of owning and running a significant farm business can be immense. Even for the super-human, at times, this can all become too much.
     
    In sharing their genuinely inspirational story, in their usual humble and understated ways, Sam & Carla explain where their life was at, consumed by the pressures of putting the farm first. They outline the very real impact this was having on their marriage and family.
     
    To their credit, and 5 years on, Sam & Carla have completely transformed their business, farm, team and lives. They own and manage a truly successful and highly scalable business with the capacity to grow and support their next generation of passionate young farmers in Charlotte, Will & James.
     
    Breakthroughs can follow breakdowns. Transformation can come from acknowledging burn-out and then giving yourself permission to take a break, re-claim perspective and go again with renewed energy, different priorities and a more meaningful and common plan.
     
    Sometimes, we need education and support to change direction, not motivation to speed up.
     
    I want to acknowledge you, Sam & Carla, for your willingness to share your journey and for the immense, often quiet and in-the-background contribution you make to other members of our Farm Owners Academy community.
     
    Well done for the grit and sheer commitment you have led with, the love and loyalty you consistently extend to each other, and congratulations on the transformations you have achieved – personally, as a couple, as parents and as business leaders – for your commitment to change and your success truly now speaks for itself.
     
    For all the challenges and hardships, we are all so very proud of you and excited for you.
     
    Here’s to a very bright future!
     
    Hutch & the Farm Owners Academy Team
