  • The Fliphouse Takes a Hit, So Jess Takes Up Farming and Introspection
    2025/04/10

    This week, Jess gets real about what it’s like to return to her farming roots while juggling home renovations, self-doubt, and the ever-complicated world of family dynamics. From planting multiple varieties of corn (because why do things the easy way?) to learning the art of patience and communication, she shares the highs, the lows, and the unexpected lessons the land keeps teaching her.

    But this episode isn’t just about farming—it’s about the messy, beautiful tension between chasing personal dreams and showing up for the people around us. It’s about the loneliness that can creep in when you feel like you don’t quite fit in and the power of finding (or building) a community that truly sees you.

    So, whether you're knee-deep in your big life transition or just here for the ride, this one’s for you.
