Episode 41: How to Find a Peer Group

by Elaine Froese | April 1, 2025 | Farm Family Harmony Podcast

In this episode, my guest is Matt Boos, founder of Agrigrowth Consulting, based in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. We discuss the power of peer groups and why surrounding yourself with people with positive mindsets, who genuinely want to cheer you on, is a game-changer when it comes to personal growth.

We explore the benefits of joining a peer group with folks of different perspectives and varying levels of experience, as well as the little mindset shifts and decisions you can make to buy back truly valuable time. We also cover why the Law of Reciprocity and providing value without expectation is so important in the realm of self-development.

“Here’s what I think a peer group really needs to function correctly – they need a leader. A clear-cut leader or a facilitator. Now, this ensures that one of the biggest things is to ensure everybody’s voice is heard within a group and there’s not somebody hogging time. And also that, I think a good peer group is more like a dictatorship than a democracy in that somebody is looking out for the good of the group.” -Matt Boos
