E120 | The Freedoms We Take for Granted: A Memorial Day Conversation with Tyler Sharp

Épisode 120

mardi 26 mai 2026 • Durée 56:41

Episode Summary

Happy Memorial Day and what better way to honor it than by sitting down with someone who actually lived it.

This week I brought on my good friend Tyler Sharp, Southwest Kansas native, former private security contractor, 22-year fire department veteran, and owner of Sharp Shooting Supply.

In this episode, Tyler opens up about going overseas to Kandahar, Afghanistan as a precision overwatch contractor in his early twenties, the firefight that sent him home and the long road back to faith and purpose. He also talks about what he's built since, a thriving gun store, a deep commitment to his community, and a perspective on gratitude that stops you in your tracks.

This one is raw, real, and a reminder that the freedoms we enjoy on a holiday weekend came at a cost most of us will never fully understand.

In this week's Memorial Day episode with Tyler Sharp:

Sacrifice looks different for everyone and it deserves our respect
Asking for help isn't weakness, bottling it up doesn't work
The change that pulls you out of a dark place often comes through the people closest to you
Faith, community, and purpose are powerful tools for putting the pieces back together
Building a business on relationships and customer service will always stand apart
Gratitude for the sunrise is a practice, not a feeling

E119 | Don't Let the Farm Win at the Expense of Everything Else

Épisode 119

mardi 19 mai 2026 • Durée 40:25

Episode Summary

This is part three of our series on the real stressors of the busy season. We talked about the weight of the workload. We talked about keeping the business from falling apart. Now we're getting into the one thing most farmers won't admit is suffering until it's already broken: the work and family life balance.

In this episode, I get honest about the realities of trying to be a good farmer, a good husband, and a good father all at the same time. I talk about why we work the way we do, where that comes from, and why "we'll do it later" is one of the most dangerous things we can say to the people we love most.

I also share a different way to think about balance, not as a scale that needs to be perfectly even, but as a checking account. Are you making more deposits than withdrawals? Because the busy season has a way of draining that account fast, and most of us don't notice until we're already in the red.

At the end of the day, we say this is all for our kids and our family. But if we're never around to build something they actually want to be a part of, what's it really all for?

Key Takeaways:

Balance isn't a scale, think of it like a checking account
Make deposits before the busy season starts making withdrawals
It's the change in your presence that hits hardest, not the absence itself
Be aware, communicate, and build your non-negotiables as a family
Allow yourself to quit, the work will always be there
None of it gets better by accident, it takes intention

E110 | Why I Started Pioneer Farmer

Épisode 110

mardi 17 mars 2026 • Durée 42:07

Episode Summary

This week on the podcast, I dive into sharing the story behind Pioneer Farmer.I talk about why I started the business, some of the struggles that I faced, and how I now helps farmers and ranchers take back control of their operations.

I talk about how some of our experiences on our operation like expanding our cow-calf operation and the financial pressure we faced after taking on debt from that expansion to navigating difficult conversations with bankers, attorneys, and family members. Like many producers, the challenge wasn't a lack of work ethic, it was a lack of financial clarity and a business framework for running the farm.

After being forced to actually look the numbers and rethink the future of our operation, we began rebuilding our operation with a stronger focus on financial awareness, strategic decision-making, and long-term sustainability.

That journey ultimately led to the creation of Pioneer Farmer, a coaching and consulting program designed to help farmers and ranchers gain clarity around their finances, build a plan for the future, and make confident decisions about their operations.

Tune in to this episode to learn more what Pioneer Farmer actually does, how the process works, and the five biggest obstacles that hold farmers back from running their operations like a business.

More importantly, I share the deeper mission behind the business: helping farmers build profitable, sustainable operations so they can continue doing what they love while strengthening the rural communities that depend on agriculture.

E20 | Financial Clarity in Farming: Emotional Choices or Data-Driven Decisions?

Épisode 20

mardi 25 juin 2024 • Durée 23:54

Episode Summary

This week I discuss how to make informed decisions in our farming operations.I share my most recent experience with this year's alfalfa crop and how a change in price affected our breakeven projections.This episode is not just about alfalfa but it's about focusing on the principles of strategic decision-making that can apply to any crop or livestock operation.

In this episode I share our recent experience with a change in alfalfa prices and how I made a decisions based on that change:

In moments of unexpected change it's easy to get caught up in the emotions and let that drive our decision making but I share how it's important to get back to the numbers to help you make an informed decision.
Taking the time to know and understand your numbers and your financial position really helps kill the scarcity that change brings.
Change is inevitable in farming but having a clear understanding of your finances helps take the feelings of scarcity and emotion out of decision making.
