Taking Life by the Horns with Courtney Feigl of Green Pastures Cattle Co

from Unwritten with Steph · host Stephanie Shanks

Courtney Feigl lives between Plain and Sauk City, raises Texas Longhorns, and has built Green Pastures Cattle Co. into a 76K-follower community—all while battling the voice in her head that says she's not good enough. In this raw conversation, Stephanie and Courtney talk about imposter syndrome, the weird psychology of social media engagement, and why "just okay" is the perfect place to start. Courtney shares how she went from working ER weekends to opening Ranch and Root co-op with friend Becca, how a Facebook auction idea transformed her husband's taxidermy business, and how co-hosting "Ag's Most Okayist Farm Girls" podcast (4K followers) opened doors she never imagined. They also get real about posting vulnerable content, raising daughters who see you use your voice, and why scary decisions always lead somewhere good. Plus: details on Courtney's "Four Shits and Giggles" event on January 17th at The Vintage.The Event --->. https://www.eventbrite.com/e/for-shts-and-giggles-tickets-1703062368389?aff=ebdsshcopyurl&utm-campaign=social&utm-content=attendeeshare&utm-medium=discovery&utm-term=Ag's Most Okays Farm Girls Podcast --->. https://open.spotify.com/show/6gK7PVhq2WX7vl2GA073SHhttps://www.instagram.com/okayestfarmgirls/?hl=enGreen Pastures Cattle Co. ----> http://www.greenpasturescattleco.com/https://www.instagram.com/greenpasturescattle/?hl=enRanch and Root Store:https://www.facebook.com/p/Ranch-and-Root-Sauk-61560544507312/Support the showhttps://www.stephshanks.comhttps://www.instagram.com/unwrittenwithstephhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/stephshanks/https://www.youtube.com/@stephshankshttps://www.tiktok.com/@stephshanks?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pchttps://www.facebook.com/stephshanksphotography
