    180. Rebuilding the Iconic Brand with Genuine Billy Cook CEO Adam Trenk
    2026/11/03

    What does it take to bring an iconic Western brand back to life, especially when everything seems to be working against you?

    This week, I'm joined by Adam Trenk, attorney, entrepreneur, lifelong horseman, and owner and CEO of Genuine Billy Cook Saddles. Adam shares how a childhood connection to the legendary saddle brand eventually led him to purchase the struggling company in 2019, determined to restore its reputation for quality and craftsmanship. From navigating COVID and rebuilding the business to losing the entire factory in a devastating 2024 tornado, Adam's story is one of incredible perseverance.

    We talk about the challenges of reviving a heritage brand, the importance of knowing when to change course, and how Adam's commitment to his employees has grown into an effort to help revitalize the entire community of Sulphur, Oklahoma. Plus, we discuss Genuine Billy Cook's exciting partnership with the NFR, its expansion into Western lifestyle products, and why Adam believes that anything worth doing is going to be difficult.

    2026/10/27
    What happens when agriculture's future demands a different set of skills than the ones we've traditionally taught? At Iowa State University, they're doing something about it.This week, I'm joined by Dr. Jodi Sterle, Associate Chair of the Department of Animal Science at Iowa State University, to talk about the university's innovative new Animal Enterprise and Innovation major. Developed with input from graduates and industry employers, this program combines animal science with business, entrepreneurship, technology, and data analytics to prepare students for the changing needs of agricultureWe also dive into the importance of internships, why students should explore career opportunities early and often, and how Iowa State is addressing the shortage of large animal veterinarians through a new early acceptance program. From rethinking traditional education to creating new pathways into the workforce, this conversation is a great reminder that preparing the next generation of agricultural leaders means being willing to do things differently.Be sure to subscribe/follow the show so you never miss an episode!Connect with Jodi:Email her at jsterle@iastate.edu Connect with Jessie:Follow on Instagram @ofthewest.co and @mrsjjarvFollow on Facebook @jobsofthewestCheck out the Of The West websiteResources & Links:Iowa State University Animal Enterprise and Innovation MajorIowa State University Production Animal - Veterinary Early Acceptance ProgramJoin The Directory Of The WestGet our FREE resource for Writing a Strong Job DescriptionGet our FREE resource for Making the Most of Your InternshipGet our FREE resource: 10 Resume Mistakes (and how to fix them)Get our FREE resource: How to Avoid the 7 Biggest Hiring Mistakes Employers MakeEmail us at hello@ofthewest.coSubscribe to Of The West's ⁠NewslettersList your jobs on ⁠Of The WestMentioned in this episode:Click below to buy your Ag + Western Career Blueprint (Code: LEADERS): Ag + Western Career Blueprint

  • 178. The Hidden Reason You Can't Finish Anything

    178. The Hidden Reason You Can't Finish Anything
    2026/10/20

    Have you ever started your day with a full to-do list, bounced between a dozen different tasks, and somehow ended the day feeling like you accomplished absolutely nothing? You're not alone, and our constant connection to technology might have more to do with it than we realize.

    In this solo episode, I'm talking about the mental overload that comes from nonstop notifications, endless distractions, and our tendency to multitask our way through life.

    I'm sharing the simple changes that have helped me regain my focus, including doing one thing at a time, recognizing when I'm avoiding a difficult task, and making room for slower, more intentional activities. Because sometimes the best way to get more done, feel less overwhelmed, and be more present is to slow down.

    As the saying goes, slow is smooth, and smooth is fast.
