    A prayer 12 years in the making and the fear that came with it

    In December 2025, I was asked to speak in front of 400 women working on the future of food.

    2025 Review: My Year of Reclamation

    A few years back, I adopted a new tradition. Instead of making a resolution, I set an intention for the year by choosing one word that encompasses what I wanted to create more of. This instantly made me feel like the CEO of my life. I set the direction and made aligned decisions that fit my dreams. In 2023, my word was GLOBAL and in 2025, it was RECEIVE. In this episode, I take you behind the scenes of my life and leadership to share how my year unfolded. Ready to choose your word for the year? Join the community workshop on December 30th here. Curious about Leadership Circle? Set up a chemistry call here to learn more about the program and if it's a fit for you. Enrollment is open now.

    Making farmers famous with Analisa Winther from Top 50 Farmers

    In this episode of What The Field?! by CrowdFarming, I sit down with Cristina Domecq and Emilia Aguirre to talk about why it’s so important to recognize and celebrate the individuals behind our food. As Co-Founder of Top 50 Farmers, I share how visibility can transform the agricultural landscape—and why it’s crucial for the future of regenerative farming. We talk about: • The mission behind Top 50 Farmers and the impact it’s having across the farming community. • How visibility can translate into policy influence, new markets, and stronger community ties. • Why scaling regenerative farming starts with something as simple (and powerful) as knowing who your favorite farmer is. Making farmers famous isn’t just a catchy idea—it’s a necessary step towards a more regenerative, connected food future. Let’s make farmers famous! Applications and nominations to find the next cohort of Top 50 Farmers open on November 4, 2025!
