In this episode, Angela Markley-Ragland shares her transition from the bustling Amarillo Tri-State Expo, Fair, and Rodeo to nurturing the family's century-old ranch. Discover the innovative changes she's championed in their cattle operation and the lifelong values instilled by her 4-H involvement. My conversation with Angela doesn't shy away from the challenges either. She opens up about managing a fair, contrasting the warm community spirit of the country with the frenetic pace of the city. Hear how board member Mr. Fletcher's wisdom on problem-solving became Angela's guiding principles. Outside the fairground, she reminds us of the importance of cherishing simple joys and connections.
