Empowering Ourselves in Chaotic Farming Times, Recent Episodes & Exciting New Transition Planning Resource!
In this solo episode of The Impact Farming Show, Tracy dives into several important topics around farm transition planning, the common hurdles farm founders face, and a brand-new resource for listeners.
In this episode, Tracy discusses:
- Recap of Recent Episodes: Tracy reflects on the recent episodes of the show, including the two on fair and equal treatment (a major topic when it comes to transition planning), an episode about wills and trusts, and two interviews with individuals who help farm founders share their farm stories and legacy through video interviews. She asks listeners how they are enjoying the content so far.
- Five Key Concerns in Transition Planning: After conducting interviews, research, and reading, Tracy shares the five common problems or concerns that often prevent farm founders from starting or completing their transition planning:
- Fair treatment of heirs
- Financial concerns and senior care for the retiring generation
- Determining who takes the lead in succession
- Understanding how the transition process works
- Logistics – how to implement the plan once it’s in place
- Identifying Stumbling Blocks: Tracy emphasizes the importance of acknowledging these common stumbling blocks, especially for the younger generation who are eager to plan but may face resistance from farm founders. Farm founders often struggle to voice concerns or even begin the conversation, which can leave the younger generation feeling stuck.
- Exciting New Resource Announcement: Tracy is thrilled to introduce a FREE ebook that lists valuable Transition Planning Books & Resources. She shares her excitement about compiling a list of helpful books, thought leaders, and resources she's found throughout her research. This is a great tool for anyone looking to dive deeper into transition planning.
- Final Thoughts: Tracy encourages listeners to stay strong in these uncertain times, reminding them that, although challenges exist, “this too shall pass.”
