R2Kast 323 - Charleigh Arnold on Dog Training, Dairy Farming, and Starting Afresh
R2Kast 323 - Charleigh Arnold on Dog Training, Dairy Farming, and Starting Afresh
Today we welcome Charleigh Arnold onto the R2Kast! 🎙️ From theatre studies and retail to full-time dairy farming and professional dog training, Charleigh’s journey is a masterclass in embracing change and following ion. With a background far from agriculture, she’s now thriving in the field—literally—with cows by day and gundogs by weekend! 🐄🐶 We chat about her leap from managing River Island to walking dogs, training them, and eventually working with shooting dogs on the field. Her deep love for her spaniel Summer led her to train dogs not just to behave, but to work. Her insight into beat lines, scent training, and shooting culture adds real depth to this episode. 🐾🎯 Charleigh is the embodiment of why this podcast began—someone who didn’t grow up in farming but found her place in it through ion and persistence. From her first milking shift to ploughing solo and navigating life on two dairy farms, she brings honesty, humour, and a whole lot of heart. 🚜✨ We also explore social media, where Charleigh—aka @charlieanita—has built a loyal following with relatable content and authentic brand partnerships. Her engaging nature and genuine love for farming and animals make her one to watch and a perfect guest on the R2Kast! 📱💬 Enjoy! 😊 Thank you to Howden Rural for the continued . #DogTraining #DairyFarming #NewEntrantFarming #Gundogs #WomenInAg #AgInfluencer #DogLover #DogTrainer #FarmLife #FarmingJourney #TikTokFarming #Spaniels #ShootingDogs #BeatLineDogs #SocialMediaInAg #FromRetailToRural #YoungFarmers #ResilientWomen #LearningByDoing #HowdenRural #R2Kast #CharleighArnold Hosted on Acast.

R2Kast 321 - Jack Bradley on Military Dreams, Dairy Farming, and farming on Iceland
R2Kast 321 - Jack Bradley on Military Dreams, Dairy Farming, and farming on Iceland
Today we welcome Jack Bradley onto the R2Kast! 🎙️ Jack’s journey into agriculture didn’t begin in a field, but on a beach in Kavos! A holiday romance introduced him to milking cows and kicked off an unexpected but ionate career in dairy farming. 🌾💬 Having long dreamed of a life in the military, Jack’s path was repeatedly interrupted by injury and medical discharge. After years of fighting to stay in, he eventually stepped away—and fate led him to the fields of New Zealand, where dairy farming offered a new purpose. 🪖🐄 Jack shares how he narrowly avoided being on flight MH17, then embraced a fresh start in Iceland. After years of travel, growth, and grit, he now farms in south Iceland with his fiancée Rebekka. Together, they’ve bought a farm and are excitedly preparing to welcome their first child this July! ❄️👶 We also explore the key differences between UK and Icelandic farming, Jack’s reflections on community, purpose, and resilience, and why he believes a bit of going “against the grain” can lead you exactly where you’re meant to be. 💬🔥 Enjoy! 😊 Thank you to Howden Rural for the continued . #DairyFarming #MilitaryLife #CareerChange #Resilience #AgriJourney #FarmLife #IcelandFarming #NewZealandFarming #AgainstTheGrain #FarmingCouple #AgParenting #LifeAfterArmy #WestfjordsIceland #R2Kast #FarmingPodcast #AgricultureUK #FarmingDifferences #JackBradley #FarmToFuture #SouthIceland #AgInspiration #HowdenRural #JulyBaby #NeverGiveUp Hosted on Acast.
