What started as a search for healing led her and her husband to rebuild their land in Burneyville, Oklahoma, where TLC Ranch now stands: a regenerative bison ranch and certified organic pecan orchard rooted in living systems rather than chemicals. Through decades of trial, floods, and faith, Cindy discovered that the same principles that restore the body also restore the soil. This episode traces how her recovery became the land’s recovery - and what it really means to live and farm in alignment with nature.\nKey Topics\n- Healing through food and faith\n- From chemical sprays to organic farming\n- Bison behavior and herd management\n- The challenges of organic certification\n- Health, medicine, and trusting intuition\n\nTimestamps \n\n00:00:00 – Growing up outdoors and learning self-reliance\n 00:04:00 – Linking diet and chronic illness in the 1980s\n 00:08:00 – Healing through food and natural living\n 00:12:00 – From chemical farming to organic awareness\n 00:19:00 – Buying land and starting the ranch\n 00:27:00 – Discovering bison and learning their behavior\n 00:31:00 – Pecans as nutrient-dense local food\n 00:44:00 – Challenges of organic certification\n 00:53:00 – Replacing chemicals with biological inputs\n 00:58:00 – Managing herd health and natural balance\n 01:05:00 – Lessons from floods and renewal on the land\nWebsite\nFacebook\nInstagram","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/al8BwjjnR2m8I-3vEq0Iyx2E0FqQ9QB0aLPF4D6flnY/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS81YzE3/NmFmYjZiNmRkZDdm/Y2MwYzk5ZjI5ZjRj/YzgwZi5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
