Episode 45: My Love Story: How I met my husband

Welcome back to The Bets Life Podcast for Season 4! I’ve missed these conversations, and I am thrilled to bring you a fresh mix of guest interviews and more-personal-than-ever solo episodes for this 4th season!


I’m diving deeper into my own life experiences this season, and since this podcast launch coincides with Valentine’s Day week, I thought that it would be appropriate to start with a love story. My love story, of course. I know that many of you may be curious about how I met my husband, Patrick. I may be (very) biased, but it’s my favorite love story, and it involves many laughs, 2011 fashion, and a pencil-scribbled number on an essay in Boulder, CO. 


This story is one that friends, friends of friends, and even strangers have retold over the years, and now I’m excited to share it with you all! Happy early Valentine’s/Galentine’s Day – wishing you all so much love this week!

Kinda chic to be a cowgirl (sorry, I had to) 🤠 W Kinda chic to be a cowgirl (sorry, I had to) 🤠 

What a beautiful visit to @visitsyv - dining at @nellakitchenbar, shopping at @wildflowerwomenboutique and @globaleyeshop, and an epic ride and wine tasting at @buttonwoodwinery 🍷 

Buttonwood’s property is gorgeous. What a treat to ride through the vineyards and end with a crisp, chilled wine. Also, shout out to Willy - we’re buds now. 🐎 

That barn too. Absolutely stunning. Do you love a visit to The Valley too? 🍇

NEW episode of The Bets Life Podcast with @wanderm NEW episode of The Bets Life Podcast with @wandermentfarms 🎙️ 

Episode 70: Growing a Better Future: Margo Redfern on Regenerative Farming & Reinvention 🌱 

Is a return to regenerative farming the answer that we need for climate change? How are we able to learn from the past to help the future of farming? 🤔 

On this podcast episode, I’m joined by Margo Redfern, founder of Wanderment Farms, a 56-acre regenerative farm in Santa Barbara County. After witnessing the devastating California wildfires and feeling called to make a difference, Margo and her husband left the Bay Area behind in search of land. They had one goal in mind: restore the land while helping to create a healthier future for generations to come. ☀️ 

Margo breaks down what regenerative farming actually means, why our soil and food nutrition are in crisis, and how simple shifts in the way we farm could have an enormous impact on helping our environment. We also talk about starting an entirely new chapter later in life, the challenges that farmers continue to face, and why “tuck-in time” is Margo’s favorite.🦙 

Plus, we dive into all the farm animals (hint: there are never enough livestock guardian dogs), cheese making, farm-to-table dinners, and the surprising realities of modern farming. 👩‍🌾 

Whether you’re passionate about sustainability, love learning about where your food comes from, or simply enjoy hearing inspiring stories of people creating meaningful change, this conversation is full of hope, education, and practical takeaways. 👏🏻
