0:00.0	Hey, everybody. Welcome back to the old-fashioned on-purpose podcast. So we've had a few episodes
0:06.5	not back-to-back, but fairly recently about beef. We've been talking about beef myths. We've
0:12.1	been busting through some of the misinformation that's floating around. I know a lot of you
0:16.0	loved the episode with Diana Rogers. And in that vein, I wanted to have someone you probably
0:21.2	have seen her around social media, or maybe you've listened to her podcast. Natalie.
0:26.3	Kovorik. Kovorik. There we go. I wrote it down and I forgot. Natalie Kovorik is a
0:33.1	ranch wife, a mom, and a social entrepreneur who lives in the Nebraska sand hills. And she is
0:37.8	and wonderful advocate for agriculture and all the entails. So I've been really looking forward
0:43.8	to this conversation and welcome to the podcast today, Natalie. Thank you, Jill. I'm so honored
0:48.6	to be here. I think you have been, you know, I've followed you since I've been online, which feels

1:19.6	like totally leave it, but I got my degree in pharmacy. So my parents kind of gave us the gift
1:25.2	of choice. They really wanted to make sure if we ever came back to the operation, it was, you know,
1:29.8	because we wanted to, not because we felt we had to or, you know, that was the only thing we could do.
1:34.6	So I practiced full-time pharmacy. I lived in a bigger, you know, bigger quotation is definitely
1:40.6	relative for the state of Montana. But, you know, I live near a family ranch, but I certainly never
1:46.6	thought my income would be dry from it. I never thought I would be sharing online about it. You
