Having a Profitable Mindset with Charlotte Smith

Author: Scott Shepherd, Host and Flower Educator March 21, 2022 Duration: 1:02:36

Our guest this week is Charlotte Smith and she teaches farmers the skills they need to make money on their farms and live calm, balanced lives through mindset coaching. Going against what most of us have been taught, Charlotte coaches in 13 countries to build successful profitable farms while also getting out from feeling overwhelmed, stressed and anxious.

In 2016, Charlotte was named one of the Top 25 Most Influential Women in the World in Food and Agriculture by the non-profit, Food Tank and she is giving us a little dose of her coaching today on The Flower Podcast.
