169: Nate Pontious' Journey From Combat Veteran To Texas Rancher

Description

In this episode, I sit down with Nate Pontius of Pontius Ranches to talk about what it really takes to build a ranch in central Texas. Adapting through drought, raising animals with intention, and producing better food from the ground up. We also get into Nate’s journey from the Marine Corps to ranch life, and how hard seasons, family, and purpose reshaped the way he trains, works, and lives.CHAPTERS:00:00 The Rhythm of Rain and Ranch Life02:03 Adapting in Drought Season03:25 Better Feed, Better Animals11:48 Why Quality Pork Tastes Different16:33 The Farmer’s Bowl29:08 From Marine to Rancher34:02 How Fatherhood Changes a Man39:08 The Reality of Building a Life45:49 Building What Money Can’t Buy54:21 Life After Service01:03:23 Training for Health, Not Ego01:14:29 Rebuilding Land the Right WayOrder from Pontious Ranches - Mob Grazing Enterprise:https://www.pontiousranches.com/FOLLOW NATE AND REMI:@nates_beard@rrayymeORDER MY BOOK HERE: ⁠https://www.amazon.com/Go-One-More-Intentional-Life-Changing/dp/1637746210FOLLOW:Become a BPN member FOR FREE - Unlock 25% off FOR LIFE ⁠https://www.bareperformancenutrition.com/collections/performance-nutritionIG: ⁠instagram.com/nickbarefitness/⁠YT: ⁠youtube.com/@nickbarefitnessThis podcast is for informational purposes only and should not be considered legal [health or profession] advice.
