Burnout To Breakthrough: The Freedom Blueprint with Josh Kerpan

What happens when the farm you've worked so hard to build becomes the very thing that keeps you from enjoying your life?

In this episode of The Impact Farming Show, Tracy sits down with Josh Kerpan, farmer, success coach, author and owner of Kerpan Farms and Kaizen Solutions.

Josh farms a large-scale operation in Saskatchewan while also coaching farmers and blue-collar business owners across North America. His work focuses on the connection between the person running the business and the business itself...particularly how identity, leadership, systems and mindset can either create freedom or keep someone trapped.

Josh is also the author of Burnout To Breakthrough: The Freedom Blueprint, a book about transforming your business from a burden into a blessing.

In this conversation, Josh gets real about something many farmers experience but don't always talk about: the identity of being the person who has to do everything.

Because being the farmer who can fix everything, make every decision and carry the weight of the operation can feel like a strength. But at some point, that same identity can become the thing that prevents the farm, and the farmer, from moving forward.

In this episode, we talk about:

• Josh's journey as a farmer and how Kaizen Solutions came to be

• Why he decided to become a coach while continuing to operate a farm

• The inspiration behind Burnout To Breakthrough: The Freedom Blueprint

• Josh's personal experience of building the life he dreamed about and still feeling stuck

• How a farmer's identity can become a barrier to growth
