What if losing everything you worked for was the best thing that ever happened to you?
In this episode of the Active Health Podcast, Dr. Josh Mason sits down with Afton Holt—founder and president of CornerPost, an agriculture-focused marketing and PR agency based in Fort Dodge, Iowa. Afton shares the raw story of how getting unexpectedly let go from a job she loved forced her to completely reset—and ultimately led her to build a thriving business from the ground up.
No roadmap. No investors. Just grit, resourcefulness, and a drive to turn pain into purpose. Now over a decade later, CornerPost is a national force in ag marketing, with a team dedicated to pushing the industry forward through strategy, storytelling, and bold creative work.
This conversation goes deep on:
• Reinventing your identity after career loss
• The hard parts of starting from zero
• Mental and physical health during major life pivots
• Building a business in a male-dominated industry
• What it really takes to show up for yourself when no one’s watching
