05. Finding Purpose Among Family and Cattle: John Crawford, Farmer, Banker, Owner of The Pearl Wedding Barn

Published: July 7, 2020, 11:30 a.m.

John Crawford quite literally does “all the things.” On paper, he's a prime beef producer, a banker, and the co-owner of a beautiful new wedding venue modeled after an 1800’s barn in rural Hamilton, Missouri. But more importantly than that, John would be quick to tell you he's a man of faith and family - the lucky husband to his lovely wife Lana and the proud father of four wonderful children. As we found out, the accomplishments in his life are simply the fruits of an unmatched work ethic and a humble spirit, which just happen to be attributes that reflect the core of everything FinalVibe was designed to become.

Also, as of 10 a.m. the day of recording, John became a first-time grandfather of twins, which means the timing couldn’t have been any better for a chat about legacy and what it means to lead a life well-lived.

In this episode, we talk to John about cattle farming, how to save and spend your money wisely, and how life tends to “take care of itself” when you value integrity above all else. Beyond that, we touch on the power of being present in the moment, valuing relationships more than accomplishments, and even a few bonus nuggets of wisdom on the topic of dating and parenting. Long story short, you probably don’t want to miss this one.
