Ep 110: Lucy Godbolt

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2443776/fan_mail/new] Most 13-year-olds are thinking about school, sport, social media, or what’s for dinner. But for Lucy Godbolt, a lot of her spare time is spent thinking about cattle, genetics, temperament, and what makes a great animal stand out in the ring. Growing up in a livestock-focused family, Lucy has learned plenty from her dad, Pete Godbolt, a highly respected stud stock manager with Nutrien Ag Solutions. But she's also forging her own path in the industry. At just 13, Lucy is already making her mark at major events such as the Sydney Royal Easter Show, competing in cattle showing and junior judging competitions, and collecting an impressive list of ribbons and achievements along the way. In this episode, we chat about the excitement and nerves of show day, some memorable mishaps, her agricultural scholarship, and what keeps drawing her back to the cattle industry. We also find out her favourite cattle breed. It's a great conversation with one of the next generation of passionate young people helping shape the future of Australian agriculture.

Ep 109: Peter Godbolt _ Part B

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2443776/fan_mail/new] Peter Goldbolt. In this episode, we dive into the pressure and adrenaline of sale day — where Pete can be responsible for selling millions of dollars worth of livestock in a single day. As a Stud Stock Manager with Nutrien Ag Solutions, Pete gives a great insight into the modern stud stock world, from changing technology to the relationships that hold the industry together across Australia. We also get a behind-the-scenes look at auctioneering itself — including the difference between being a fast or slow padder, reading a crowd, and the skill involved in keeping a sale moving. There’s plenty of laughs in this one too, along with an honest chat about family life, long days on the road, and the balancing act that comes with working right across the country. Hope you enjoy Part B with Peter Godbolt.

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2443776/fan_mail/new] Peter Godbolt is a Stud Stock Manager with Nutrien Ag Solutions, working with livestock breeders and producers right across Australia. Spending close to 100,000 kilometres a year on the road, he’s constantly travelling between cattle sales, properties, shows and industry events.

In Part A, we talk auctioneering stories, life on the land, the evolution of cattle genetics, meat quality, temperament, and the people that make the industry what it is. There’s plenty of insight, a few laughs, and some great stories from behind the microphone and behind the rails.

We also check in on Warren himself, and discuss practical ways people can better support both themselves and those around them. There’s plenty of encouragement in this conversation too — including Warren’s challenge for people to find just one percent of their day to invest in their own wellbeing. This episode is about resilience, hope, community… and the small steps that can make a big difference. If this episode raises anything for you personally, please reach out for support.
