 Welcome to Leaders Of The West, a podcast for innovators and change-makers in the ag and western industries. Hosted by Jessie Jarvis, the Founder of Of The West, our mission with Leaders Of The West is to foster a community of pioneers, innovators, and leaders who want to be at the forefront of what’s next. Whether it’s a guest episode where we’re digging into the blueprints behind our favorite industry businesses, discussing the innovation and strategies that have allowed family farming and ranching operations to continue on for another generation, to episodes with honest conversations from entrepreneurs who have risked it all on their dreams, or leaders detailing how to create a company culture so strong that you couldn’t pay your employees to leave … These conversations are meant to encourage the leaders of today and inspire the next generation of trailblazers. In addition to bringing in guests, you’ll also find some solo episodes, where Jessie shares the lessons she’s learned throughout her journey as a rancher, entrepreneur, wife, and mother. Whether you’re a farmer, a rancher, an equine lover, someone headed up the leadership ladder, an ag business owner, a western sports athlete, an entrepreneur, or someone who just loves the western way of life—this is the place for you.

    107. The Power of Forward Thinking with Terrell Miller, of Cattlesoft
    Jun 10 2025
    I’m excited to be joined by Terrell Miller, co-founder of Cattlesoft and the force behind CattleMax, one of the most trusted software platforms in the cattle industry. What started as a student project between him and his wife in 1999 has grown into a suite of rancher-focused tools used across the country and internationally. In this episode, Terrell shares the humble beginnings of CattleMax, how he mailed out software CDs before laptops were common, and what it’s taken to earn the trust of ranchers over 25+ years. We dive into how smartphone adoption shifted the ag tech landscape, where AI is headed in the livestock industry, and why genomic testing is becoming a game-changer for commercial producers. We also talk about the entire Cattlesoft ecosystem: CattleTags, CattleScales, CattleDNA, and the popular Ranching.com newsletter, and why they’ve remained committed to customer choice, compatibility, and helping producers manage records their way. Terrell’s down-to-earth leadership style, combined with his passion for technology and cattle, makes this a conversation full of insight and inspiration.

  • 106. The Cattle Industry on a Global Scale: A Conversation with PJ Budler

    106. The Cattle Industry on a Global Scale: A Conversation with PJ Budler
    Jun 3 2025
    This week, I’m joined by PJ Budler—cattleman, international livestock judge, and passionate advocate for balance in the cattle industry. PJ brings a fascinating global lens to our conversation, having judged over 100 breeds in 50 countries. From his early beginnings in South Africa to his current work across the U.S. and beyond, PJ shares what he’s learned about the importance of adapted, functional cattle and the impact of decentralization on rural communities. We talk about the difference between chasing trends and building generational operations, why average cattle are actually the backbone of the industry, and how the U.S. can lead globally by focusing on adaptability and trade. PJ’s philosophy of holding the middle and his advocacy for family farms make this conversation one you don’t want to miss—especially if you care about the long-term sustainability of agriculture.

  • 105. From Apple Seed to Slice: Kait Thornton’s Story

    105. From Apple Seed to Slice: Kait Thornton’s Story
    May 27 2025
    This week’s episode features Apple Girl Kait, also known as Kaitlyn Thornton, a fourth-generation orchardist who’s using her voice to bridge the gap between agriculture and the everyday consumer. Kait shares how selling apricots as a teenager sparked her love for marketing, storytelling, and educating others about life on the farm. From misconceptions about pesticides and labor to questions as simple as “do apples grow on trees?”, Kait has made a name for herself by answering it all with honesty, humor, and heart. We talk about the power of showing up online, why agriculture needs to start playing offense in the digital space, and what leadership looks like in this new era of advocacy. Kait’s approachable style and willingness to share both her knowledge and curiosity remind us that we don’t need to be experts — we just need to be willing to tell our stories. Whether you're in ag or not, this episode will leave you inspired to speak up, support others, and find meaning in the work you do.
