A Green Ribbon for Rural Communities with AgriSafe's Laura Siegal

In a world where mental health remains a topic shrouded in stigma, it takes extraordinary individuals to sow the seeds of change.  None of us would likely be here without the farmers who work so tirelessly to plow the fields to give us all fresh produce, wheat, dairy and meat. The agricultural community has unique blessings and challenges that we need to tie a green ribbon around (for those wondering - this is a symbol of Mental Health Awareness when tied around a tree).Join us for an inspiring episode as we sit down with Laura, a passionate health communication officer at Agrisafe Network, who is cultivating a brighter future for those working in agriculture.In this heartfelt interview, Laura takes us on a journey through the groundbreaking initiatives undertaken by Agrisafe Network to provide essential mental health care to individuals in the agricultural community.Drawing attention to the critical issue of mental health in agriculture, Laura sheds light on the transformative power of the AgriStress hotline number and the 9-8-8 suicide hotline number. Discover how this lifeline is saving lives, providing a beacon of hope for those in distress. June is the third month with the highest rates of suicide in our country. If you or a loved one is struggling, please reach out. There is a solution, and I believe you'll find it through your passion, and sometimes that passion is reawakened through talking to someone, connecting to an animal, nature, or doing hard physicial labor or challenging mental work.  Come back for more on this next week with Farm Fit Momma, Amanda Nigg.Find Laura at:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/siegellaResources:Website: https://www.agrisafe.org/AgriStress Helpline: 833-897-2474Trevor Project: https://www.thetrevorproject.org/Sage: https://www.sageusa.org/Veterans Crisis line: https://www.veteranscrisisline.net/Farm fit momma: https://www.farmfitmomma.com/Work with Me:https://www.catcaldwellmyers.com/work-with-meSend us Fan Mail Support the show✨ Join the Spiritual Horse Seeker Summit👉 Go here to HEAR my Tedx talk ✨ Order Wings of Purpose — now available on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GYL381CS👉 Book Launch Party, June 27th in Jackson Hole, WY: https://butterflymarch.com/🔥 Ever thought about how you can incorporate your love of horses in to your work as a mom, coach, teacher, facilitator or business owner?
