Book Club: Black Heels to Tractor Wheels with Mary Pat Sass
Today is our first Elevate Book Club! Today we’re chatting with Mary Pat Sass about Ree Drummond’s book, Black Heels to Tractor Wheels. In the Elevate Book Club, every month we’ll read and discuss a new book as an Elevate community. At the beginning of the month, we’ll send out an email with that month’s book title and the guest who picked it. Then, at the end of the month, tune into our podcast for an episode devoted entirely to all things book club fun!
In this community book club conversation, we cover:
The parts we related to, parts we wanted to change, and the parts that made us squirm
How we all consume/interpret books in our way and from our own perspective
What it taught us on connecting with the consumer and those outside of Ag
Some inside scoop on our own rehearsal dinners, our spouses, and marriage overall
About Mary Pat Sass
Mary Pat, or “MP”, is a midwestern farm wife and mom from Northern Illinois. She decided to leave her corporate career in agriculture technology to be home with her kiddos and to be more involved with her family farm. What she thought was her dream job turned out to be the one thing keeping her from living her dream life. Now, she works to inspire others to find their passions through sharing her own experiences. She’s started her own businesses, while raising two kiddos and fulfilling the role of “farm wife”. She shares the beauty of her everyday life and gives a behind the scenes look at the farm.
