#118: The Thinking Shift That Could Change Everything with Dr Kate Burke - Founder of Think Agri
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What if the reason so many capable farming families get stuck isn’t lack of advice — but the way they’re thinking about the problem in the first place?
In this episode, Ben Law sits down once again with Dr Kate Burke, founder of Think Agri, to challenge some deeply held assumptions about decision-making, succession, and what really determines whether a family business thrives across generations. Kate has spent decades working alongside farming families who are smart, hardworking and deeply committed — yet still find themselves paralysed when the conversation turns to the future.
Rather than treating big transitions as a technical or transactional exercise, Kate invites listeners to consider a different starting point: how mindset, identity, and human dynamics quietly shape every major business decision on the land. Why do practical, capable people avoid conversations they know matter? Why does independence sometimes work against us? And what changes when families stop trying to “solve” the future and instead prepare for it properly?
This conversation speaks directly to families who sense there’s more at stake than tax structures or paperwork — who care about legacy, relationships, and handing over something stronger than what they inherited. If you’re five, ten or even fifteen years out from major change, this episode will challenge how you frame the task ahead — without telling you what to do.
It’s thoughtful. It’s practical. And it just might change how you see the next chapter.
