In this episode, Jack and Jared explore what it means to find fulfillment on and off the farm.

They unpack the idea that fulfillment isn't about possessions or perfection, but about alignment — between who you are, what you value, and how you live. For Jack, fulfillment comes from adding value to other farmers through shared experiences.

For Jared, it’s rooted in presence, gratitude, contribution, and connection. They challenge the myth that more land or money equals satisfaction, emphasising that fulfillment is built through mindset, routines, reflection, and meaningful relationships.

The conversation dives into five key areas that help build fulfillment on the farm as well as highlighting how fulfillment can shift over time, and why regularly asking "Why am I doing this?" helps keep things grounded. Whether it's showing up in community, growing through challenges, or simply being present, they remind us that fulfillment is personal — and worth pursuing.

The conversation is a practical and heartfelt look at how farmers can reconnect with what truly matters
