The Real Life of a Highland Cattle Rancher: Calving, Kids & Health Shocks || Ep 10

from The Details

Join Tara Miller for a delightful and multifaceted conversation with Brittany Johnson, the force behind Hillside Highland. While known for ranching and raising adorable Highland cattle, Brittany wears many hats – mom, wife, realtor, influencer, gardener, and gluten-free recipe enthusiast. In this episode they explore Brittany's journey since their meeting at Rural Rooted, the joys and challenges of ranch life (including calving season!), her surprising decision to add a third child to their family, and her deep dive into a personal health journey driven by migraines and acne. This episode is packed with insights on balancing a bustling life, the realities of influencing, and the importance of listening to your body. Listeners will discover: Ranch Life Realities: From calving season chaos to the decision to diversify their cattle breeds (Highlands and Herefords) and address the "hobby farm" perception. Juggling It All: How Brittany manages ranching, motherhood (now to three!), her side hustle as a realtor, influencing, and maintaining a household. An Influencer's Perspective: Brittany's take on staying authentic, avoiding being "salesy," and the strategy (or lack thereof) behind her diverse content. The Health Journey Deep Dive: Brittany's candid story about battling daily migraines, severe acne, food sensitivities, and ultimately discovering mold poisoning and parasites. From Sickness to Strength: Her experience with the Medical Medium detox, the impact on her health and subsequent pregnancy, and the ongoing process of maintaining wellness. Gluten-Free Living: Insights into managing celiac disease in the family (her husband is celiac), finding great gluten-free recipes (shoutout to The Loopy Whisk & Kristin Cavallari!), and her go-to meals. This episode is packed with real talk about rural entrepreneurship, motherhood, health transformations, and the beauty of a life lived fully!
