It’s 𝐅𝐅𝐀 week! 💙💛 It’s that week of the year I HAVE to share everyone’s favorite throwback pic of me! Why do I sing the praises of my time in 𝐅𝐅𝐀 at North Harford High School in Pylesville, MD?! 𝐅𝐅𝐀, and my high school Ag teachers, are the reason I have an incredible career in and around Animal Health! Amazing people, unimaginable experiences, unbelievable travel… the journey continues! 𝐆𝐫𝐢𝐭, find things you’re passionate about and WORK at them, like Horse Judging! I wasn’t great, but giving Reasons taught me A LOT! And we 𝐖𝐎𝐍 🥇the state and got to go to Nationals! 𝐏𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞, keep doing hard things! I mean, I’ve always loved to talk, but I didn’t know I would love public speaking! And here I am speaking for a living… all because of FFA prepared and extemporaneous speech competition! 𝐓𝐞𝐚𝐦𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤… makes the dream work! The Nursery Landscape team needed another member, so I joined, and studied A LOT, which got me to State competition! (Full transparency, I don’t remember much 😂) 𝐒𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐢𝐜𝐞, working in and around our school, our community, the state, regional and national competitions and events. It isn’t about ME. 𝐋𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩, starts with leading ourselves. Then ask yourself how you can HELP others. It’s so much more, but these are a few of the reasons 𝐅𝐅𝐀 made a priceless impact on my life! 💙💛 #FFA #leadership #AgCareers #JodiSpeaksLIFE #Inspired #Fulfilled #Empowered #HeartandHustle #BeYourHero #successmindset #growthmindset #equinecareers #equine #animalhealth #TheThrivingEquineProfessional

Counting down to NextGen EQ Vet Med 2024! As we work to make these 2024 programs even better than 2023 - I had to glance back through some of the comments from the 2023 attendees!

I feel much better prepared for my future after attending.” “The opportunity to network was amazing, especially as someone who came from Georgia and doesn’t have the opportunity to meet with these people as often or in person.

It’s a new adventure day! ✨ A few months back I received a call from a friend asking if I’d be interested in teaching an Ag Sales class. Hmmm 🤔 I had never considered this. It didn’t take me long to know, why WOULDN’T I want to teach an Ag Sales class?! Those close to me know, I can be quick to be critical of higher education; lacking relevance in todays professional world and failing to adequately prepare students for the ‘student-to-professional transition.’ I know it’s bigger than JUST higher ed, but I do think God said- time to put your money where your mouth is young lady! ✨ So, with my 20 years of an amazing Ag Sales Career in hand, I’m off to @ukagriculture, The University of Kentucky Martin-Gatton College of Agriculture, Food and Environment to teach Ag Sales this semester! I think it’s fitting that 𝐒𝐈𝐆𝐍𝐈𝐅𝐈𝐂𝐀𝐍𝐂𝐄 is my January growth focus topic. As I continue to seek 𝐒𝐈𝐆𝐍𝐈𝐅𝐈𝐂𝐀𝐍𝐂𝐄 over worldly Success, I will do my best to educate, engage and empower this group of #NextGen leaders in whatever mountains they choose to move!🏔️ #agcareers #agsales #significance #JodiSpeaksLIFE #Inspired #Fulfilled #Empowered #HeartandHustle #BeYourHero #successmindset #growthmindset #animalhealth #TheThrivingEquineProfessional

“Every year you make a resolution to change yourself. This year, make a resolution to BE yourself.” It’s the 𝐅𝐈𝐑𝐒𝐓 #ThrivingThursday of 2024 and I want to chat with you about #𝐒𝐈𝐆𝐍𝐈𝐅𝐈𝐂𝐀𝐍𝐂𝐄!

Is anyone else a little scared of middle-schoolers?! I am. I’m not going to lie. I was one, and I honestly don’t think I liked me. 😂 Friday, I faced that fear, and I survived! For those of you that have been around me, you know I RAVE about my high-school ag teachers, and what a tremendous impact they’ve had on me and my entire life. 💜✨ When I was in college (moved to college 550 miles away from home by these same ag teachers), my ag teachers had a baby…. Fast-forward to today, and that baby is now a middle school Ag teacher in Lexington, Kentucky! Wait, What?! So, you can imagine, when she asked me to speak to her students, there was no way I was declining! I talked about my education and career journey, and all the great careers in and around agriculture and animal health, and I even had fun and had some great questions! They may not be my “ideal audience” but I really enjoyed the opportunity to interact with these younger students. AND- It was such a cool experience to see her leading students with the same passion and energy that I experienced through her parents, and to know our Next Gen is in great and capable hands! THANK YOU Hannah! 💜 #JodiSpeaksLIFE #Inspired #Fulfilled #Empowered #HeartandHustle #BeYourHero #successmindset #growthmindset #equinecareers #equine #TheThrivingEquineProfessional #ag #agcareers #agteacher #nextgen

Whether it’s starting a new business or side-hustle, taking a class, moving somewhere new, (skydiving for the first time!), or ANYTHING you have on your heart- doing new things challenges us, and challenges require perseverance, and perseverance grows us.

The power of LinkedIn! ⚡️ It’s #ThrivingThursday and it was time for me to share my thoughts on just how important, and often underutilized, LinkedIn is as a resource. I landed my dream job in 2013 BECAUSE of a connection on LinkedIn! 🐎 So listen in, and get to sharing this, especially with our high school and undergrad students! I challenge Acedemia to include LinkedIn as a requirement in preparation for the student to professional transition. The more students I speak with, the more I know we can do better by them! ✨ Whether you’re a student, or career professional, this platform can certainly accelerate and differentiate you in your career aspirations if you take the time to utilize and leverage the opportunities.

This week I am celebrating COACHING! 🎉 Who knew when we moved past organized sports that coaching could still be one of the most impactful opportunities we could participate in as adults?! ✨ Sometime in the last decade it hit me how thankful I was for the countless hours and dollars invested in my professional development during my career thus far.

I found a coach - and not just any coach, a perfect fit, amazing life-changer! 💜 So here I am 1 year later, prepping episode 13 of my Podcast this week (about the impact of Coaching with that amazing coach of mine!), I’m taking on additional coaching clients, and pursuing speaking opportunities!
