Farm Safe Farm Well: 'Don't be afraid to open up'
Manage episode 504203915 series 3494820
Farming can be a demanding and stressful job with numerous challenges including income pressures, high costs, regulations, weather, isolation and long working hours.
While farmers are quick to look after their animals, land and machinery, many overlook the most important thing - their own health and wellbeing.
On this weeks podcast we speak to brothers David and Michael Kennedy, who run an organic sheep farm Skeheenarinky, Co. Tipperary.
In 2010, the brothers' world changed forever after the sudden death of their sister, Sarah, in a car crash.
Drawing from their own life experiences and qualifications, the brothers launched their online fitness business, The Lifestyle Blueprint, in 2021.
The programme has helped other farmers who want to make healthier choices, get active, have a more positive mindset and build confidence.
The Farm Safe Farm Well series, produced by Agriland Media in conjunction with AXA Insurance, is funded by the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (DAFM).
