Onward and Upward

 NOVEMBER 2020

The Cultivating Resiliency project began as a partner project with UMASH in 2018 which centered around the fact that farm women and women in agriculture have unique needs in responding to farm and agricultural stress because of the multiple roles they play.

This project developed tools for supporting women in ag, including webinars and virtual coffee chats. These tools build a community for women in ag and provide coping strategies for life’s stressors.

A recent addition to their work is utilization of a Cultivating Resilency podcast – delivering the quality information and tools in a new format.

The Cultivating Resiliency Podcast launched on October 19, 2020 and has followed with a number of topics including:

  • What is Stress?
  • Coping with Stress and Positive Self Talk
  • You Can’t Pour from An Empty Cup Part 1 – Making Self Care and Sleep Intentional

The Cultivating Resiliency project has certainly taken their initial UMASH partner project onward and upward. UMASH will continue to share their important work and resources.
