    Breaking the Silence on Mental Health in Agriculture

    Content Warning: This episode discusses mental health, depression, and suicide, which may be difficult or uncomfortable for some listeners. If you or someone you know is struggling, help is available. “Pick yourself up by your bootstraps” epitomizes the toughness and grit we associate with agriculture. But what does the public not see about the mental and emotional toll of a job that seemingly never ends? This week, we’re having a long-overdue conversation with Laura Del Prete and McKayla Robinette about the unique stressors facing farmers and ranchers, why asking for help can be difficult, and how communities can better support their own.

    The Future of the Colorado River

    What happens when you dedicate 20 years to following a river from its headwaters to the sea? For Peter McBride, it has meant gaining an eye-opening perspective on water, the West, and the people who work and live on Western lands. A filmmaker, author, and photographer who grew up on a Colorado ranch, Peter joins Haley to discuss the decades he’s spent documenting the Colorado River and the changing landscapes, communities, and ecosystems that depend on it. Through the power of storytelling, Peter hopes to break through apathy and inspire greater stewardship of our water and Western lands. As irrigation ditches run dry and decades of footage reveal an alarming trend in the Colorado River Delta, it’s more important than ever to document these changes and bring greater awareness to drought, conservation, and the collaboration needed to protect the West’s most vital resource.

    30 Years of Healing with Casting for Recovery

    For 30 years, Casting for Recovery has supported women with breast cancer through the healing power of nature and fly fishing. This week, we revisit one of our favorite partners as Haley sits down with Stacey Benham, Director of Marketing and Communications, to discuss the organization's mission and an exciting new initiative that uses storytelling to connect with women who may need support. Casting for Recovery provides life-changing experiences on the water, and now, through the Jane Project—the story of a drift boat created to honor women and their journeys—that mission is reaching an even wider audience. Haley and Stacey discuss how the Jane Project is helping raise awareness, why women continue to shape the future of fly fishing, and how community, nature, and time on the water can be powerful tools for healing.
