SUMMARY
In this episode, Jack and Jared explore how to reconnect with passion and purpose after going through burnout, tough seasons, or simply losing that initial spark on the farm. They share personal stories of feeling stuck, exhausted, and unmotivated — and what it took to reignite their drive. From delegating tasks to taking real breaks, they break down practical ways farmers can reset, reassess, and move forward with clarity.
They dive into how passion is what lights you up, while purpose is how you use that energy to impact others — and how both can get buried under the weight of everyday pressures. The conversation explores signs of burnout, the power of stepping back, and why it’s okay for your purpose to evolve. Whether you're stuck in "snooze mode" or just feeling flat, this episode reminds you that it’s possible to find meaning and momentum again — and how your farm can become the vehicle to a more fulfilling life.
