A former Florida FFA member turned collegiate standout at Montana State University, Sophia is proving that the journey doesn’t stop when you hang up your blue jacket—it only gets bigger. From her roots in veterinary science to her dedication to agricultural education, she’s making an impact in and out of the classroom.

Oh… and did we mention she might just be the next Miss America? 👀

In this episode, Sophia shares how FFA shaped her confidence, fueled her ambition, and gave her the tools to chase dreams far beyond what she ever imagined. Whether it’s advocating for agriculture, working with animals, or stepping onto a stage, she’s doing it all with purpose and heart.

This is one you don’t want to miss. 💙

      <title>From Barn to Bestseller: Her Story Will Shock You</title>
      <description><![CDATA[New episode release 🎙️✨

This week, we’re sitting down with Ayla Tolentino—a 2026 Ag Author of the Year whose journey in agriculture started with simple curiosity and grew into something truly impactful. 🌱📚

From exploring her friends’ dairy cows to developing a national-winning ag science fair project on whether expired seeds are trash or treasure, Ayla has always asked questions that matter. That same passion led her to create educational resources, such as her “Ag in My State” workbook, to help students connect with agriculture in meaningful, real-world ways.

In this episode, Ayla shares how agriculture shaped her path, how storytelling became her platform, and why investing in ag education is so important for the next generation.

Her story is a reminder that big ideas can start small and that agriculture has the power to inspire, educate, and transform. 🌾💡

Listen now and get inspired.

      <title>Leadership Beyond the Jacket: Emma Poole on Purpose, Redirection &amp; Giving Back</title>
      <description><![CDATA[This week on Beyond the Jacket, hosts Lacie Evans and Paige Cruse welcome Emma Poole—Florida FFA alum, former state officer, national award winner, and a leader who continues to invest in the future of agriculture through mentorship and service. Emma’s journey is a powerful example of how leadership doesn’t stop when the blue jacket comes off—it evolves.

In this episode, Emma opens up about redefining success beyond titles and awards, navigating seasons of redirection, and learning how to push forward with purpose even when the path doesn’t look like what you originally planned. She reflects on the lessons FFA instilled in her, how those experiences shaped her leadership style, and why giving back to the next generation is both a responsibility and a privilege.

From personal growth and confidence to resilience, mentorship, and long-term impact, this conversation offers encouragement for current FFA members, alumni, and anyone navigating life after a major chapter closes. Whether you’re passionate about leadership development, women in agriculture, or finding clarity in your next steps, Emma’s story serves as a reminder that the most meaningful leadership often happens beyond the jacket. 🎙️🌱

      <title>Growing Against the Odds: Agriculture at the Edge of Alaska</title>
      <description><![CDATA[This week we’re heading north—way north—and stepping into a story that proves agriculture can flourish anywhere. Alyssa Sullenberger joins us to share what it really looks like to pursue ag in one of the most challenging environments in the country. From subzero temps to limited resources to carving out community in remote places, Alyssa reminds us that agriculture isn’t defined by your zip code—it’s defined by your grit, your passion, and your willingness to build something that matters.

Her journey is a powerful example that whether you’re learning SAE skills in a small town, advocating for ag in a big city, or working cattle and crops in the middle of Alaska, there’s a place for you in this industry. The future of ag is wide open, and it needs voices, innovators, and leaders from everywhere.

Join us as we dig into her story, the lessons she’s carrying forward, and why “growing something that lasts” looks different—but just as meaningful—no matter where you call home. 🌱

      <itunes:summary>This week we’re heading north—way north—and stepping into a story that proves agriculture can flourish anywhere. Alyssa Sullenberger joins us to share what it really looks like to pursue ag in one of the most challenging environments in the country. From subzero temps to limited resources to carving out community in remote places, Alyssa reminds us that agriculture isn’t defined by your zip code—it’s defined by your grit, your passion, and your willingness to build something that matters.

Her journey is a powerful example that whether you’re learning SAE skills in a small town, advocating for ag in a big city, or working cattle and crops in the middle of Alaska, there’s a place for you in this industry. The future of ag is wide open, and it needs voices, innovators, and leaders from everywhere.

Join us as we dig into her story, the lessons she’s carrying forward, and why “growing something that lasts” looks different—but just as meaningful—no matter where you call home. 🌱

      <description><![CDATA[This week on Beyond the Jacket, we’re heading all the way to the Golden State to meet Blake Reed, a senior from the Reedley FFA Chapter in California! 🌾

Blake takes us through his journey of showing market hogs and the many lessons he’s learned both in and out of the show ring.

And let’s just say… we could not stop laughing during this conversation! Between the stories from the barn and the family moments that make his FFA experience so special, this episode is full of heart, humor, and inspiration.

🎧 Tune in now - you won’t want to miss this lively chat with Blake Reed!

      <itunes:summary>This week on Beyond the Jacket, we’re heading all the way to the Golden State to meet Blake Reed, a senior from the Reedley FFA Chapter in California! 🌾

Blake takes us through his journey of showing market hogs and the many lessons he’s learned both in and out of the show ring. But what really shines through in this episode is the influence of his dad, a one-of-a-kind supporter who’s always pushing Blake to start new projects and dream even bigger. 

And let’s just say… we could not stop laughing during this conversation! Between the stories from the barn and the family moments that make his FFA experience so special, this episode is full of heart, humor, and inspiration.

🎧 Tune in now - you won’t want to miss this lively chat with Blake Reed!
