Communication Unearthed
Communication Unearthed Podcast explores the conversations that shape farming families, rural businesses, and the legacy they leave behind.
Hosted by Katie Godden, Farm Business Communication Advisor, this podcast looks at leadership through the lens of communication. Having conversations about the patterns, pressure points, and moments that quietly influence how families and teams work together.
If you’re part of a farming business or rural leadership role, you already know that the hardest challenges are rarely solely technical. They are wrapped in humanness and that more often than not is the part we are never taught to navigate effectively.
These are grounded, straight-talking conversations about navigating people, protecting relationships, and leading well when it matters most
