Some things change… and some things never do.
⠀
Yesterday was the very first time I ever took Smokey on a trail ride. And let me tell you… he was the goodest, bravest boy. We explored Branched Oak State Recreation Area just outside Lincoln — lake views, horse-friendly trails, and the kind of day that reminds you how good life can feel when you’re in alignment with what sets your soul on fire.
⠀
It’s almost been a year since I moved to Nebraska. And after the dust of the move, divorce, and new beginnings finally settled… I realized: it’s time to explore again.
⠀
As I rode, I remembered being a little girl in Pocatello — packing lunches, spending hours riding in the mountains with friends, weaving made-up stories into the sagebrush.

That was my whole world.

And in a way, it still is.
⠀
Yesterday, I felt her with me — little Sarah — and I think she’d be proud.
⠀
🖤 Nature.
🐎 Horses.
🧭 Adventure.
🔥 And the intense need to make sure you’re living in joy, not just surviving.
⠀
Each day is a choice.

And I’m choosing to DO things.

To reconnect.
To blaze more trails.
To get inspired again.
⠀
➡️ I want to hear from you:
What’s something you used to love doing that you’ve drifted away from… but you want to find again?
⠀
Tell me below. Let’s remember who we are.
⠀
And if you know where I should ride next, drop your Nebraska trail recs too — this might become a whole series. 💫

Just wrapped up a powerful keynote and workshop at the @meatinstitute Environment, Labor & Safety+ Conference in Charlotte—and WOW. 🙌

This group of meat packers and processors brought the HEAT with their curiosity, engagement, and real-world challenges.

We dug into bold communication, active listening, and tactical questioning (👋 goodbye to “why?” and hello to “what” and “how” questions!).

The energy in the room? Electric⚡️—one person even said it was just what they needed.

I learned so much, too. Like how something as simple as checking for air compression leaks or steam traps can have a massive impact on sustainability. And how teams are leveraging AI to translate training into Spanish, Creole, Lebanese, and more. That’s leadership in action.

Huge thanks to @MeatInstitute for the invite and to every single person who showed up ready to grow.

This past weekend in Arizona was food for my soul. I got to celebrate one of my favorite cattlewomen, rope (a VERY RARE occasion that LIT me up)…and most importantly, feel the love of my desert soul sisters.

A Year in the Making – Now, It’s GO Time!

On March 17th, the Montana Pulse Crop Committee🌱# @mtpulsecrops 🌱formally approved a strategic plan that has been 12 months in the making—and let me tell you, this one is SOLID.

This plan puts producers FIRST, drives collaboration, and invests in economic development—ensuring that Montana’s pulse industry continues to lead the way.

There were moments when the work felt muddier than heck, but that’s what I love about strategic planning—big questions, deep listening, gathering all the data, and then seeing the cream rise to the top.

To the dedicated leaders who brought their vision, passion, and willingness to wrestle with hard questions—thank you. Your commitment to this industry is unmatched.

Clear goals create momentum. Now, I can’t wait to see this plan in ACTION. Let’s go!

#pulsecrops #montana #agriculture #strategicplan #lovemyjob #approved

New “Stagecoach Attack” by Charlie Russell print found on Facebook Marketplace was a great way to celebrate all the goodness of Q1!

Did you know a lot of CMR’s art was painted or set in Montana?

I hope that YOU’RE also feeling captured by Montana…and that I’ll be seeing you there in August for an unforgettable adventure and sisterhood.

#art #elevatedspaces #charlierussell #gratitude #firstquarterdone

Exciting News!

I’m thrilled to announce that I’m partnering with the @northernpulsegrowers to craft a strategic plan that will shape the future of pulse crop producers across the region.

Strategic planning isn’t just about setting goals—it’s about clarity, alignment, and bold leadership to drive impact.

With the pulse industry playing a critical role in agriculture, sustainability, and global markets, this work will help ensure producers are positioned for long-term success.

I love working with agricultural organizations that are ready to move from good to extraordinary—and I can’t wait to help NPGA build a strategy that reflects their vision, values, and the opportunities ahead.

Mid-20s Sarah, bleach blonde, purse puppy in tow, thinking I was living the dream in Arizona. And honestly? I kinda was. I was soaking up the sun and the lessons—learning, leading, and singing my heart out.

It was in these years I first met The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People—a book/coursework that rocked my world. In my role of Director of Employee Development, I facilitated dozens of sessions for leaders and frontline teams in the financial industry on this content. I also dove deep into project management and leadership development, climbing the corporate ladder, loving every new Franklin Covey workshop I got my hands on—from Execution to Leading Across a Multi-Generational Workforce.

I wasn’t riding horses much then. I was building my resume, making lifelong friends (the kind my kids now call “aunt” and “uncle”), and singing with not one, but TWO bands I adored. By day, I was corporate Sarah—leading, training, and coaching. By night, I was singer Sarah—belting it out across Phoenix and Tucson for conference-goers and corporate parties. That sort of “double life” helped me hone my stage presence, build resilience, and lean into the magic of doing what you love—even when it means burning the midnight oil so to speak.

I learned tough lessons, too. Like the time I missed a huge bonus because I thought I was too cool to be held accountable to important deadlines. Spoiler alert: I wasn’t. Ouch.

Arizona gave me so much—community, confidence, and even a Craigslist connection that turned into family. (Blake up in heaven, thanks for answering my random ad about sharing your horses—who knew that’d lead to one of the most meaningful friendships of my life?)

It’s been years since I left the Valley of the Sun, but sometimes, I swear I can still feel the warm wind on my face as I cruised down the 202 after a night of gigging. So grateful for those years, the lessons, and the people who made them unforgettable.

Flashback Friday to rocking the stage at the @colofarmbureau Annual Meeting! 🎤

Over the past decade, I’ve had the honor of working with Farm Bureaus across Montana, Colorado, Mississippi, Florida, Wyoming, and more—helping leaders sharpen their communication, elevate their leadership, and push beyond ‘average.’

One clear truth?

The future of agriculture depends on leaders who don’t settle.

Bold and compassionate communication.

Strong AND gentle leadership.

Bigger impact.

Let’s go!

Today, on the Spring Equinox, a time of renewal, balance, and bold beginnings, I’m launching something that has been on my heart for a long time.

As I celebrate 10 years in business, there is no better way to honor this milestone than by creating something deeply meaningful in the place that has shaped so much of my work and my soul—Montana.
Montana has been a constant thread in my journey.

Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with the @montanafarmbureau, @montanagraingrowers, Montana Pulse Crop Committee, @mtffa Foundation, @mtstockgrowers , and more.

My dad was raised in Chinook (once a proud Sugar Beater!), and my grandma taught school in Lloyd, where the land stretches so far north my kids couldn’t believe we were that close to Canada.

The people, the land, the rivers, the wild beauty of Montana—it calls me home, over and over again.

And now, I’m answering that call in a whole new way.

Welcome to SOUL SISTERS IN THE BIG SKY.
A retreat for the wild-hearted woman who is ready to reconnect and rise.

🐴 Equine-guided leadership, trail rides & wisdom
🧘🏻‍♀️ Daily yoga & soul-deep restoration
🌄 Time in nature, creativity, movement, and sisterhood
🔥 Big conversations, big courage, and big Montana skies

This experience will be co-led by Candace Weeda Strobbe (@candaceweeda ), a woman whose gifts are as vast as the Montana landscape—wellness expert, yoga instructor, cattle rancher, and one of my dearest friends. From private coaching client to collaborator, Candace brings deep wisdom, grounding energy, and a shared passion for helping women rise.

If you’ve been longing for clarity, courage, and connection… this is for you.

If you’ve been craving space to breathe, move, listen, and lead… this is for you.

If your soul is ready to answer the call of the West… this is for you.

Montana has always been a place where my heart runs wild.

And now, I get to share it with you.

Happy #NationalAgDay! 🐮 🐂 🌽 🌱

If you’ve known me for more than five minutes, you know my heart beats for agriculture.

From cattle ranches to corn growers, pulse crops to policy groups, I’ve had the honor of working with so many incredible organizations over the last 10 years—speaking, leading strategic planning, and helping build bold, anti-average leaders in ag.

At the end of the day, agriculture isn’t just business—it’s about feeding people and providing fibers and fuels.

And while I love a good boardroom discussion, nothing beats knowing my work helps keep hungry babies and kids well-fed (with beef, beans, and a whole lot more!). 🥩🌽🥔

Shoutout to all the farmers, ranchers, and ag professionals who make it happen every single day.

You are my people.

💛 #leadership #agproud #agricultura #feedtheworld #meaningfulwork #mypeeps #nationalagday #myclientsrock

10 years.
Hundreds of stages.
Countless leaders, teams, and organizations pushed beyond average.
And somehow, I’m still standing and LOVING what I do and who I serve.
🔥🔥🔥🔥

If my business had a drunk best friend, she’d be the one reminding me of all the bold leaps, the wild pivots, the unforgettable moments (and maybe a few things I tried to forget)…and I couldn’t resist jumping on this drunk bestie trend, inspired by the amazing @ramblinrosecreative ❤️.

But here’s the thing—I didn’t build this alone. To every client, event planner, coaching client and colleague who has trusted me, THANK YOU.

Your belief in what I bring to the table fuels everything I do.

We’re just getting started.

A BIG announcement is coming Thursday, and trust me, you’ll want to be here for it. 🎉

Drop a 🍾 in the comments if you’re ready to celebrate with me!

Meat AND Crops. Farmers AND Ranchers. 🥩🌱

Too often, I see agriculture divided—meat vs. plants, farmers vs. ranchers, protein vs. protein. It’s a narrative that creates unnecessary battle lines when, in reality, we all rely on each other to nourish the world.

Case in point: When there were hints that the federal dietary guidelines might increase recommendations for pulses (think lentils, chickpeas, and beans) as a protein source, parts of the beef industry came out swinging, calling it “unhinged.” But here’s the thing… why does it have to be one or the other?

I LOVE beef.

It’s nutrient-dense, flavorful, and an incredible source of high-quality protein. AND I also support non-meat proteins.

Why? Because food choice is personal.

It depends on budget, access, culture, and nutrition needs.

Instead of fighting for dominance in the protein conversation, why not fight for stronger, more PROFITABLE, and more RESILIENT agriculture—together?

Many of the meat animals we raise are nourished by the crops our farmers grow. By-products of crops feed livestock, and livestock enrich soils that grow crops.

The cycle is interconnected.

I proudly work with meat AND crop organizations.

I proudly support food choice.

I LOVE farmers AND ranchers.

And I hope my work continues to bridge these worlds—because agriculture wins when we stand together.

What do you think? Can we shift from “this OR that” to “this AND that”?

If you don’t work in agriculture, how does the AND principle work in YOUR industry right now?

#leadership #meat #protein #foodchoice #profitability #agriculture #bettertogether #collaborate #uniqueness

You’re doing better than you think. Most leaders judge themselves too harshly, but here’s the truth – your inner dialogue shapes your leadership more than any technical skill ever will. Speak to yourself like you were a friend. Lead with confidence. Keep going. You’ve got this.

#leadershipmindset #youvegotthis #ruralleader #agleadership #antiaverage #leadership #belief

I am a high value woman.

The other day on TikTok, I saw a woman complaining about a date she recently went on because the man kept referring to himself as a “high value man.”

At first, I just rolled my eyes and chuckled at the arrogance he was showing by repeating that phrase, and I scrolled to the next video, but as the term “high value man” rolled over in my mind, I begin to fall in love with the high value language for myself.

I wondered: Why can’t I walk around believing that I am high value too?

Worthiness is something many leaders struggle to believe about themselves.

They can receive accolades from everyone around yet still see themselves as just faking it or that one day they’re going to get found out because they’re really not that smart.

It’s one of the reasons I love coaching.
I love helping leaders see their own magnificence.

Being a reflector of the gifts they bring into the world is so deeply meaningful and I honor this opportunity to help them see their massive value.

I’m amazed by how many leaders struggle to claim their unique blend of brilliance, boldly.

Not to be braggadocious or ego driven, but to OWN and CELEBRATE their damn strengths.

I love driving change in this domain. ❤️

In this first quarter of 2025, I decided my mantra will be all about soaking into the fact that I am high value.

Yes, I am a high value woman and leader.

And I invite you to join me.

Because I know you are high value too!

#highvalue #leadership #mantra #mindset #seeit #beit #antiaverage #coachlife #godeep #slowwork #fastimpact

Action breeds clarity.
I’m going to keep saying it.

You don’t need to see the whole path – just the next step.

Move, and the next step will reveal itself.

Stuck?
Not feeling inspired?
Do something – anything.

Walk. Call a friend. Watch a movie. Spend time with animals. Go grab coffee.

Engage with the world, and suddenly energy shifts. Ideas flow. Creativity returns.

Don’t wait for clarity. Move toward it.

#horsemedicine #winterwisdom #leadership #move #act #firststep

The leaders I work with are as diverse as this lineup—visionary entrepreneurs, bold communicators, high-achieving executives, and creatives who understand that mastery isn’t limited to just one lane.

They know that business strategy isn’t just about numbers—it’s about leadership, influence, and execution. Warren Buffett and Elon Musk (4A) would have a lot to say about that.

They embrace storytelling, branding, and the art of commanding attention—whether through music, marketing, or sheer presence. Think Taylor Swift (2C), Lady Gaga (2E), and Snoop Dogg (3E).

They appreciate the wisdom of unconventional thinkers—those who bring a deeper level of insight into leadership, mindset, and resilience. The Dalai Lama (5F) and Malala (5E) redefine what it means to lead with purpose.

And they know that greatness leaves clues. Whether it’s John Wayne (3B) and his legacy of grit, Phil Jackson (4E) and his ability to lead champions, or Michael Jordan (4F) and his relentless pursuit of excellence—success isn’t random.

In my coaching and consulting work, I help leaders pull wisdom from a variety of places—whether it’s the world of business, entertainment, elite sports, or spiritual mastery. Because leadership is an art AND a science.

So, tell me—where would you sit? And what’s the first question you’d ask?

Books have been my mentors, my escape, and my fuel for bold leadership for as long as I can remember. From business brilliance to soul-deep storytelling, I’ve devoured pages that challenged my thinking, sparked new ideas, and shaped how I show up in life and work.

I get it. You’re busy.
Your schedule is full.

There IS no such thing as balance…just trade offs.

I’m here to remind you that time is about CHOICES.

Every task, commitment, or opportunity you say “yes” to is a “no” to something else. Making good choices takes courage—and alignment to your core values.

Here’s how to work smarter:

DO: If it’s urgent and important, tackle it NOW. Procrastination steals energy.

DEFER: Schedule tasks that don’t need immediate action. Just don’t let “later” become “never.” Block time on your future schedule and when it rolls around, act.

DELEGATE: Hand off what doesn’t need your expertise. Empower others while freeing yourself. YES…others won’t do it like you will…AND that’s perfectly ok. Move out the way, Terry.

DELETE: The tough love approach—if it’s been on your to-do list forever, ask yourself:
• Does this really matter?
• Is it aligned with my goals and values?
If the answer is no, DELETE it. It’s cluttering your mental space and holding you back.

👉 Remember: Time management is life management. Make bold, value-aligned choices, and watch your productivity soar. If you’re ready to free up your time and energy, start today by deleting that one task you KNOW doesn’t belong on your list.

What’s your first delete? Drop it in the comments below! ⬇️

The first half of November has been very anti-average, with a trip to Kansas City to serve from the stage at @agfutureamerica and another stop in Texas for the @cowgirlmuseum hall of fame induction ceremony with @voldprorodeo and a private strategy day with two leaders who have a huge heart for connection.

What’s next? I’m headed back to Colorado for the @colofarmbureau annual meeting!

I absolutely LOVE this time of year AND all of the epic people I get to spend time with along the way.

I’m SO excited to pull into KC tonight. For the first time ever I’m driving into town vs. flying because my new city, Lincoln, is only 3 hours away.

Tomorrow, I’ll be connecting with anti-average collegiate leaders from across the country during two different sessions designed to challenge them to lead bigger.

We will work to define and articulate their unique leadership brands—a crucial element for long-term career success and I’ll help them explore how to use focus, curiosity, and coachability to generate exceptional value in their work and relationships.

It’s going to be a GREAT weekend!

BE AWESOME

Sometimes we all need a little reminder of why we’re already awesome. Here are three reasons why you should believe in your own awesomeness, every single day:

1-Your unique story matters– There’s nobody else who has walked your exact path, faced your challenges, and celebrated your wins. Own your journey—it’s a gift to the world!

2-You make an impact– Every conversation, connection, and decision you make leaves a mark. Your actions, no matter how small, create ripples that inspire and uplift others.

3-You’re growing every day– Embracing the process of learning, falling, and rising stronger makes you unstoppable. You’re not average, you’re on a journey to become your best self.

Believe it. Own it. BE AWESOME. 💛

B wanted to take my picture this afternoon.

We had just been at the barn, and I had a fine layer of dirt all over me and was NOT dressed to impress. 😂

Energetically I was feeling beat.

I’ve been painting all weekend and sloooowly recovering from the flu that kicked my household’s a$$ earlier this week.

I really didn’t WANT to fulfill B’s request AND I also knew it would make her very happy if I’d just said yes.

So I did.

She captured me in my element.
Standing in nature with sun on my face. 🌞
Imperfect.

Mirroring the season…where I am letting go of old sh!t and honoring the beauty of the moment.

It was a lovely day.

🍁 🍂🍃

It’s time to be absolutely audacious with how big you think!

#happy #thinkbig #newseason #horses #businesswoman #business #growth #growthmindset #mindset

I think many leaders regularly lie to themselves.

Common lies:
-I’m not sure what to do (when you have a dang good idea but won’t own it).

-I’m not creative enough (when imagination and free will are among your greatest human gifts).

-I’m not ready yet (when you simply ARE).

-If only I could show up more like ______ (insert name of cool person here), I’d be more effective.

All of these things are bunk. 😡

So many leaders I work with have a hard time seeing their own brilliance, and it’s so fun helping them to elevate mindsets and stop the lies.

And the horses LOVE helping with this work.

The horses quickly mirror limiting beliefs and pain points that can be transmuted from harsh to harmonious.

It’s simply stunning to watch how they coach and how client’s lives and teams are touched. ❤️🐴❤️

Perhaps today you can stop baring your teeth at your own perceived leadership inadequacies and shine love on all you are so you can lead stronger.

And if you’re ready to lead stronger now,📱me!

I’ve entered into my 47th year here and I’m feeling like I’m cracking open the most potent version of me.

i’ve been doing a lot of work over the past few months to figure out who this latest version of me is… And I wanted to share a few thoughts.

I am:

A woman who is grounded in the earth and drawn beyond the stars.

A sister who knows her body is always providing invaluable clues, giving nods of when to push full throttle, freeze or fight. (Listening continues to be the hard part 😉.)

A mother who wishes time wouldn’t be such a thief and who is delighted with each new way her babies show up in their own maturing skin.

A horsewoman who is healed in tiny and powerful ways every time she steps foot into a pasture or a stall.

A builder who can untangle the complex so it can be seen and redesigned clearly.

A musician who loves the moments when notes, rhythms, and emotion makes bodies move freely and make eyes weep.

A student and a teacher. A mentor and a mentee. A giver and a receiver.

A creator of epic energy who transmutes anxiety into action.

A warrior who wants to find a way to feed all the hungry babies.

A friend who wants to listen to the hard and messy. And the fun and whispy.

An artist from the stage and the side.

A designer of anti-average experiences.

❤️

I could go on.
And on.
And on, about all the pieces of me.

A million beautiful pieces.

Some a little more polished than the others.
Each one oh so valuable.

And I’m glad you’re here to watch and see what’s yet to be!

Fun fact about my business: I work in Montana more than any other state.

And…each time I go, I fall deeper in love.

And…some of my favorite people live there.

I couldn’t resist jumping on the “Ask ChatGTP to Roast your Instagram Feed” trend...

AND, I think every business owner should do it.

WOW.

The clear feedback is so valuable!

What was the message I needed to hear loud and clear: CLARIFY WHAT I DO so people know how I can help them!!

Take a down beat to listen to water.

Sounds like a flowing stream, ocean waves, or a gentle rain can be incredibly powerful.

It’s always amazing to me how such a simple action can completely change your vibe.

Tucson in the summer?
Heck Yes.

I’ll go to the desert ANY time, even when it’s 114 degrees.

Especially when it’s to serve agriculturalists who LIVE anti-average lifestyles.

I’m reflecting on the time I spent delivering three sessions last week at the @azfarmbureau Summer Leadership Conference hosted by the @azfb_womensleadership committee and the feedback I’ve received so far. And YUP, I’ve got the biggest smile on my face.

A few take-aways that have been shared:

-“I quickly reworked my presentation for today after hearing your tips in the Executive Communication and Negotiation workshop yesterday!”

-“The thing I took most from your talks was to connect to emotion. I want to take what I learned today and refigure my sales planning with this in mind.”

-“My take-away quote to reflect on and to share with others is—“Only mediocrity escapes criticism.”

-“Thank you so much for the integration of horses into your presentation...and the discussion on mentors and coaches was PROFOUND.”

Feedback is a gift and I’m so thankful to each and every person who’s taken the time to share their a-has with me, and for those who have committed to transfer the information and energy shared to real life.

Thank you to the AZFB team for trusting me to deliver massive value for their conference guests and for brining me back “home” to Arizona!

Inspire Your Audiences

Great leadership isn’t about authority; it’s about trust. In my keynotes, I challenge audiences to think differently about leadership—drawing inspiration from the natural wisdom of horses, the power of bold communication, and the reality that in agriculture, leadership isn’t just a title—it’s an action AND most importantly, a way of BEING.
