Episode Description:
It is easy to burnt out, especially in this COVID-19 world. Family farm coach Elaine Froese encourages farmers and ranchers to consider the roles they have in life. “How are you practicing self care,” asks Froese. “How well are you taking care of your marriage? How are you nurturing your family? For examples, there has certainly been great stress on families have children home from school.” To avoid burnout, Elaine has a simple strategy. “On our farm in Manitoba, Canada, we actually don’t work on Sundays. People think that is weird, but for us it works because it gives us much needed downtime and family time. At the end of the day, our work still gets done during the week.” Find out more from Froese in the latest TransFARMation podcast, found here.
