This week, Jason is joined by fan favorite from season three of Farmer Wants a Wife, the one and only John Sansone! John isn't just the guy who brought heart, honesty, and a little southern charm to the show, he is also part of a proud legacy, helping his family's fifth generation farm, a place that's been in his family for decades. On top of that, he is also currently a graduate law student looking to dip his toes in the world of law & order. From early mornings in the fields to late night fireside chats on national television, John gave us a glimpse into what it means to balance love, land, and legacy. In this episode, John opens up about his mindset going into Farmer Wants a Wife, the surreal bubble of reality TV dating, and the career opportunities he was weighing before signing on. He shares the slow-burn story of his relationship with Claire, his candid thoughts on prenups, and what really went down during casting. John also weighs in on the Samantha situation, talks about his professional goals, and gives us a behind-the-scenes look at brand deals—including how ChatGPT led him astray on one. From growing up in a farming family to being courted by other reality shows (and why he said no), John gets real about his path, his plans for the future, and where he currently stands as a law student.

this was a topic he preferred to avoid.Ca: "La terra és part de nosaltres, Paula.En: "The land is part of us, Paula.Ca: És el llegat dels teus avis i la seva abans d'ells.En: It's the legacy of your grandparents and their ancestors."Ca: "Clara, que fins ara havia estat escoltant, finalment va intervenir.En: Clara, who had been listening until now, finally intervened.Ca: "Potser puc ajudar-te, pare.En: "Maybe I can help you, father.Ca: Jo puc cuidar la granja mentre la Paula busca el seu camí.En: I can take care of the farm while Paula finds her way."Ca: "La sala es va omplir d'un silenci tens.En: The room filled with a tense silence.Ca: Marc va mirar les seves filles, veient en elles la continuació de la seva feina, però també reconeixent el desig de Paula de volar amb les seves pròpies ales.En: Marc looked at his daughters, seeing in them the continuation of his work, but also recognizing Paula's desire to spread her wings.Ca: "Podem trobar una manera", va dir Marc finalment amb un to conciliant.En: "We can find a way," Marc finally said in a conciliatory tone.Ca: "Tots dos mantenen per uns quants anys.En: "You both maintain it for a few years.Ca: Clara pot ajudar mentre prenen decisions.En: Clara can help while decisions are made."Ca: "Paula va sentir una onada d'alleujament.En: Paula felt a wave of relief.Ca: Per primera vegada, havia expressat els seus somnis i les seves preocupacions sincerament.En: For the first time, she had sincerely expressed her dreams and concerns.Ca: Tot i que no tenia totes les respostes, sabia que podria seguir endavant amb la comprensió i el suport de la seva família.En: Although she didn't have all the answers, she knew she could move forward with her family's understanding and support.Ca: La granja seguiria sent part d'ella i, a la seva manera, ella seguiria sent part de la granja.En: The farm would remain a part of her, and in her own way, she would remain a part of the farm.Ca: Amb la llum daurada del capvespre cobrint els camps, la família va quedar en silenci, però amb una nova esperança somrient entre ells.En: With the golden light of dusk covering the fields, the family remained silent, but with a new hope smiling between them.

Transcript:Sv: Nils gick längs den smala grusvägen som ledde till familjegården.En: Nils walked along the narrow gravel road that led to the family farm.Sv: Det var vår i luften, och träden bar knopp.En: There was spring in the air, and the trees were budding.Sv: Gården låg inbäddad i det böljande svenska landskapet, omgivet av frodig skog och fält som precis började grönska.En: The farm was nestled in the rolling Swedish landscape, surrounded by lush forest and fields just beginning to turn green.Sv: Nils tog ett djupt andetag av den friska vårdoften och log för sig själv.En: Nils took a deep breath of the fresh spring scent and smiled to himself.Sv: Det var dags att börja vårbruket.En: It was time to start the spring work.Sv: Men den dagen skulle bli annorlunda.En: But that day would be different.Sv: Medan Nils plöjde den gamla jorden, högg plötsligt plogen i något hårt.En: While Nils was plowing the old soil, the plow suddenly struck something hard.Sv: Han stannade traktorn och gick för att undersöka.En: He stopped the tractor and went to investigate.Sv: Där i jorden glänste något ovanligt.En: There in the soil, something unusual glimmered.Sv: Han skrapade försiktigt bort jordlagret och drog fram ett gammalt föremål, täckt av märkliga symboler.En: He carefully scraped away the layer of dirt and pulled out an old object, covered in strange symbols.Sv: Nils kände en pirrande känsla av upptäckt.En: Nils felt a tingling sensation of discovery.Sv: Vad var detta?En: What was this?Sv: Han tog artefakten och gick hem mot huset.En: He took the artifact and headed home towards the house.Sv: Astrid stod på verandan, med händerna på höfterna, och ett skeptiskt uttryck i ansiktet.En: Astrid stood on the porch, hands on her hips, with a skeptical expression on her face.Sv: "Vad har du där, Nils?"En: "What do you have there, Nils?"Sv: frågade Astrid, torkandes mjöliga händer på sitt förkläde.En: asked Astrid, wiping floury hands on her apron.Sv: "Jag vet inte riktigt," svarade Nils och höll upp föremålet.En: "I'm not quite sure," replied Nils, holding up the object.Sv: "Det verkar gammalt.En: "It seems old.Sv: Kanske har det en hemlighet."En: Maybe it has a secret."Sv: Astrid rynkade pannan.En: Astrid frowned.Sv: "Du och dina konstigheter.En: "You and your peculiar notions.Sv: Det är bäst att hålla sig till vad vi kan se och röra vid."En: It's best to stick to what we can see and touch."Sv: Men Nils kunde inte släppa tanken på artefakten.En: But Nils couldn't let go of the thought of the artifact.Sv: Han studerade de uråldriga tecknen varje kväll, trots Astrids suckar.En: He studied the ancient symbols every evening, despite Astrid's sighs.Sv: Symbolerna talade till honom om en historia som sträckte sig långt tillbaka.En: The symbols spoke to him of a story that reached far back in time.Sv: Han började drömma om dolda skatter och hemligheter.En: He began dreaming of hidden treasures and secrets.Sv: En kväll när stormen rasade över gården, hördes en röst i vinden.En: One evening, as the storm raged over the farm, a voice was heard in the wind.Sv: Nils hörde den kalla på honom, dra honom närmare sanningen.En: Nils heard it calling to him, drawing him closer to the truth.Sv: Han skyndade ut, föremålet i handen.En: He hurried out, the object in his hand.Sv: Mitt i stormen, blixtrade tecknen till, avslöjande en glimt av gårdens förflutna.En: In the middle of the storm, the symbols flashed, revealing a glimpse of the farm's past.Sv: Där, dolt under all de jord, fanns en historia väntandes på att berättas, inte en kista fylld med guld, men med kunskap.En: There, hidden beneath all the soil, was a story waiting to be told, not a chest filled with gold, but with knowledge.Sv: Nils förstod sakta.En: Nils slowly understood.Sv: Skatterna låg inte i rikedomar utan i arvet, i historien om de som kom före.En: The treasures lay not in riches but in the heritage, in the story of those who came before.Sv: I stormens ursinne valde han att sluta artefakten och återlämna den till jorden.En: In the storm's fury, he chose to close the artifact and return it to the earth.Sv: När stormen avtog och morgonsolen bröt över horisonten, kände Nils en ny frid.En: When the storm subsided and the morning sun broke over the horizon, Nils felt a new peace.Sv: Han såg på familjegården med nya ögon, fylld av respekt för det liv som bevarats här i generationer.En: He looked at the family farm with new eyes, filled with respect for the life that had been preserved here for generations.Sv: Så förändrades Nils.En: Thus, Nils changed.Sv: Istället för att söka efter det mirakulösa, lärde han sig att skatta det han redan hade.En: Instead of seeking the miraculous, he learned to value what he already had.Sv: Markens gröda, gårdens historia, och kärleken till sitt hem blev hans verkliga skatt.En: The crops of the land, the history of the farm, and the love for his home became his true treasure.Sv: Och Astrid, som alltid trott på det praktiska i livet, log när hon såg glansen i Nils' ögon.En: And Astrid, who always believed in the practical side of life, smiled when she saw the sparkle in Nils' eyes.Sv: För ibland är de största upptäckterna de som leder oss hem igen.En: For sometimes the greatest discoveries are the ones that lead us back home.

In this episode, my guest is Isobel Knight, an Australian succession planning specialist and owner and director of ProAgtive - Australia's leading farm family transition planning business. Isobel specializes in ensuring that the next generation has an opportunity to participate in agriculture and believes that valuing family above all else is the key to future success. We will explain what it means when mom and dad “go soft” during the farm transition, plus the consequences of not having a family-centred process in place for the next generation. We will discuss how succession planning is not a single event, but an ongoing process, which, if started early enough, can protect farm family members (particularly mom and dad) when they're at their worst and most vulnerable.  Access the full show notes for this episode at elainefroese.com.

In this episode of Big Money Strategies, I'm taking you behind the scenes for a real, unfiltered look at what a typical day looks like running a business from our family farm in rural WA. Spoiler: it involves a lack of water, a toddler on the roof, and still serving clients at a high level. From client coaching and content creation to parenting, farm life, and chaos control, I'm walking you through how I run a multi-six figure business without the calm, quiet workdays most people picture. This one's for the women doing big things in wild circumstances—because your life doesn't have to look perfect to build a powerful business.

Interested in more content from RENEW? Sign up for our newsletter: https://renew.org/resources/newsletter-sign-up/  Today's episode will help us rethink how we approach ministry by trading a factory mindset for a more organic, relational, and patient way of cultivating spiritual growth. Farm vs. Factory: Embracing Gospel Principles in Ministry In this insightful session, Matt Reagan explores the concept of 'Farm vs. Factory' in the context of ministry. Focusing on the differences between organic, life-giving ministry and the high-demand, high-output factory model, Matt aims to guide attendees toward practices that are nourishing for the soul and effective for the kingdom of God. Drawing parallels between farming principles and gospel teachings, Matt emphasizes the importance of deep, transformational relationships, the power of seed-growing, and the commitment to kingdom values. Through a Socratic method, prayer, and interactive discussion, attendees are encouraged to reflect on their ministry experiences and realign with life-giving practices. The session also delves into the challenges of modern church structure and offers practical advice for maintaining spiritual health and focus amidst complexity. https://reallifetheologypodcast.supercast.com/  Key Takeaways  00:00 Introduction and Purpose 04:32 The Power of Seeds and the Kingdom of God 09:05 Challenges of Ministry: Feeling Like a Factory 14:28 Brainstorming Session: Factory-Like Aspects of Ministry 33:03 Mass Production and Church Concerns 35:16 Church Policies and Discipleship 36:04 Job Comparisons: Church vs. Farm 40:48 Farm Life and Ministry 42:48 Challenges and Rewards of Farming 47:42 Farm Life Lessons and Spiritual Growth 56:25 Final Reflections and Encouragement "Farming vs. Factory Work in Ministry"   In this episode, Matt Raegan draws a sharp contrast between two approaches to ministry: farming and factory work. Using humor, personal stories, and scripture, he challenges church leaders to embrace a slower, more organic model of spiritual growth. He opens with a light moment—encouraging people to connect with those around them, even if it's awkward—before diving into a deeper reflection on how the Gospel grows like a seed. Drawing from a Chipotle ad romanticizing farming, Matt uses it as a metaphor for how ministry should look: relational, patient, and rooted in care. He shares his son's journey into ministry as a living example of how faith takes time to develop. Like Jesus' farming parables, Matt emphasizes that the Kingdom of God isn't built on production lines but through nurturing environments where people can truly grow. He contrasts this with the "factory" model—rigid, impersonal, and driven by output—which can lead to burnout and disconnection. Ministry, he argues, should be more like tending a farm: slow, intentional, and deeply personal. Throughout, Matt invites the audience to reflect on their own experiences—acknowledging the emotional weight of ministry and the fulfillment that comes from doing the hard, faithful work of cultivating people's hearts. He closes with a powerful call to action: commit to the farming model. Plant seeds. Nurture the soil. Trust God with the growth. A final prayer ties it all together, asking for the strength to lead with patience, love, and a long-term vision rooted in the Kingdom. This episode is a call to return to ministry that feels less mechanical—and more alive.

Hello and welcome to another episode of the podcast. Today on the podcast I'm excited to have an interview with Kaleb Wyse. Kaleb is the creator of Wyse Guide and the author of the new cookbook There's Always Room at the Table. When Kaleb Wyse started documenting his daily life on his farm in Iowa, he didn't think many people would take notice or even care. After all, his way of life is simple, guided by the seasons—he spends his days gardening, preserving, baking, and cooking, a rhythm not all that different from that of his parents, grandparents, and even great-grandparents who worked the land before him. But it turns out that people from all over the country connected with Kaleb's simple, back-to-basics way of living, and fell in love with his hearty, homestyle cooking. From casseroles to biscuits, his recipes hit the sweet spot of nostalgia for some—and are a breath of fresh air for others. Today on the show we're here to visit with Kaleb, learn all about his journey first on social media, leaning in to his life in south-east Iowa on his family's farm, and then his journey to writing and publishing his first cookbook.  Things We Mention In This Episode: Connect with Kaleb Wyse at Wyse Guide There's Always Room at the Table  Receive a free copy of the Art of Cookbook Creation checklist

Farming life and the essential work of producing food for the world has long been celebrated in art, literature, and essays.Richard Scheuerman, an educator, author, and 1972 history graduate from Washington State University, wrote three books that take a deep dive into art and books about farming. He covers a huge span of time and geography, from the Bible to modern literature.In those three volumes—Hallowed Harvests, Harvest Hands, and Harvest Horizons—Scheuerman calls for all of us to keep farms and agrarian work top of mind. Our very existence depends on a part of our society, where our food comes from, that often gets forgotten or ignored.He talked with Washington State Magazine editor Larry Clark about the themes of the books, how we need to appreciate food production, and more about art and literature that speaks to the nature of farming, harvesting, and the agrarian life.Read more about the books in a Washington State Magazine review (Spring 2025).Buy the books at Triticum Press or Palouse Heritage Farm.Support the show______________________________________________________________________________Want more great WSU stories?
