The Podcast for Cattle Producers
Casual Cattle Conversations is cattle producers’ place to find the resources they need to build an operation that works for them and find a community to support them during the process.
Move the Ranch Forward 2025
We’ve been told to set goals since we were in elementary school, but how many of us actually follow through and make plans to get there? Add the day-to-day fires that pop up out of nowhere and it makes following through with ranch goals even more challenging. I created the Move the Ranch Forward goal-setting book based on the same method I use for our farm and ranch.
With this guide you will:
set goals that you want to stick to
create action plans to get to the final goal
follow through with the goals you set
feel accomplished each month with the progress you make
You will achieve all this by utilizing the provided templates, strategies and tips outlined in the various pages. PLUS I’ve even included my go-to prioritization cheat sheet for when that to-do list gets OVERWHELMING!

Shaye cares about helping people find their passion and is a great advocate for the cattle industry.” Kia Patten, District 1 ND CattleWomen President
“Via Zoom, Shaye was on a panel to speak with my university agricultural communications students. She clearly and concisely described how she followed her passion and used her entrepreneurial skills to start the Casual Cattle Conversations podcast and similar rancher resources. She came across professionally yet also relatable to my students while she shared her background, her current work and her tips for the students.” - Becky Koch, NDSU
