Real Wealth Ranching

Hello, welcome to the Fat Cows, Fat Wallet Podcast. I’m your host, Jim Elizondo, creator of Real Wealth Ranching. I am a real rancher with over 30 years of experience in regenerating the land and significantly improving profits on my own ranches and with my consulting clients in MANY different environments. My passion is to help ranchers to achieve the same. If you’re an ambitious farmer or rancher who’s looking to maximize your profitability while improving your land the fastest, you’re in the right place. Let’s get started.

Before we start, I want to invite you to my free class: Triple your Stocking Rate with Lush Pastures and Thriving Livestock, where we will go over very important aspects to achieve success in your grazed property, at the end we will have a Q&A session to answer your questions.

Hello, welcome to Fat Cows, Fat Wallet Podcast. I’m your host, Jim Elizondo from Real Wealth Ranching where we help ranchers and farmers maximize their profitability while improving their land the fastest. In the words of one of our students, he has found Real Wealth Ranching to be the most holistic, pragmatic, and in-depth school for regenerative ranching. So you, my fellow rancher, are in the right place.

Today we are going to talk about what the Total Grazing Program is, last week we talked about what can be achieved… but you see when I’m out in the world and I’m speaking with other ranchers or farmers and they ask me what type of grazing I do, and I explain to them, the looks I get from them are very entertaining and show a lot of confusion.

Sometimes they just change the topic or they’ll say something like, “Oh that’s cool”. But all in all, I usually have to explain what I mean. And I thought, you know, I bet others of my Total...

Hello there, I'm Jaime Elizondo from Real Wealth Ranching and our goal is to help you maximize your productivity while improving your land faster. 

It is imperative to know the possibilities or outcomes you can achieve early in your journey when starting something new.

You want to follow nature, you want to implement things, knowledge, and strategies that resonate with you after carefully considering them, and you want the promises offered to be real, not something that requires you to work super hard or to have special skills that only a few can be successful. You want to make your life easier, save money, and make more money by working smarter, not harder.

For this, you need to have a road map, and you want to see what others have achieved in a similar situation to you, where they have met similar challenges that you will encounter.

Referring to a grazing program, there are many of them out there, all of them with different names, but most of them are the same. What changes...

Hello, I'm Jim Elizondo from Real Wealth Ranching and our goal is to help you maximize your productivity while improving your land faster. 

I hope you all had a very nice end of the year with your loved ones and that you are ready and eager to have success in regenerating your land this 2024. You want to be a good steward of your land, regardless of acreage, and you want to take good care of your livestock and have them in optimal health so they can be productive and you can be happy with them and your land.

If you are listening today, it’s because you are interested in regenerative grazing. You see we can regenerate our land with the correct grazing of our livestock, where forage plants, along with our livestock grazing them, create soil, living soil that is high in humus or slow-cycling carbon content. Livestock forages and soil form a symbiosis for the betterment of them all, but we need to include in that symbiosis our monetary or economic needs.

We have been...

Hello, I'm Jim Elizondo from Real Wealth Ranching and our goal is to help you maximize your productivity while improving your land faster.

I hope your goal setting went well and you are on your way to reaching those goals.

Today, I would like to talk about: How to convince your parents who are undecided about the Total Grazing Academy. Listen closely as this may change the way you think about convincing your parents or partners of something new.

In some cases, we need to educate or convince our parents or our partner on something that while new to them, is working beautifully around the world and just makes sense.

And still, even though it makes sense, does not mean your parents will wholly agree. They may need time to understand, then to interiorize, then to see results, and finally to embrace anything new. It is in their DNA! There are so many consultants and grazing gurus out there that I would not blame them! And many...

Let’s talk about goals. Let’s talk about goals for this next year.

As the year draws to a close, many of us may reflect on the past year and start thinking about setting new goals for the upcoming year, 2024.

Here are some tips that may help you in setting your goals for 2024:

• Identify what matters to you the most in your current circumstance.
  This can be your family, your ranch or farm, or profits, then you will want to think about goals in those categories alone. Defining what is most important to you and concentrating on accomplishing your goals in those areas is crucial.

Hi, I'm Jaime Elizondo from Real Wealth Ranching and our goal is to help you maximize your productivity while improving your land faster.

Today, I want to talk about the fear of success. It sounds strange, right? Fear of success, who wouldn't want to be successful? But it turns out that the fear of success is real and makes it very difficult to achieve our goals.

Is your fear of success sabotaging your success on your farm?

It has happened to me and it has happened to a high percentage of the people I deal with. So if we analyze why some people are more successful than others and without those persons trying too hard, it is because we all have something called fear of success. This is something I have seen in many ranchers, where they prefer to fail like everyone else than to succeed like the few. Many times we cannot see it and we think that this business is very difficult or that the concepts are complex when in reality it...

Hi, I'm Jaime Elizondo from Real Wealth Ranching and our goal is to help you maximize your productivity while improving your land faster. Today, I want to talk to you about our mission in Real Wealth Ranching.

What does it take to achieve real wealth?

We need to have: money, time, and health to be truly wealthy. Creating harmony in our lives is of utmost importance; harmony in our family, harmony in our work, harmony on our farm, and harmony between our livestock, our pastures, and our soils. 2023 is almost over and I think it is a good time to reflect on our lives and our farms. We must seek harmony in everything, nature always seeks harmony and we are part of that nature. Let's stop thinking about ourselves as detached from nature and seek to achieve harmony WITH nature.

Let's consider what it takes to achieve this harmony and thus create real wealth in our farms and our lives. What do we need to create real...

Hello, I am Jim Elizondo from Real Wealth Ranching and our goal is to help you maximize your productivity while you improve your land the fastest. But how can you achieve that at a low cost? What are the biological low-cost methods you need to implement to get better results without contradicting nature?

Today, we will delve into what is limiting your land’s potential and why your actions or lack of them affect how fast your land improves and how much it produces.

Have you ever seen the high productivity nature achieved when left undisturbed? We all know that our best soils were created under grasslands with herbivores grazing, right? This is due to grasslands regrowing after grazing which means that they feed the soil microorganisms and that builds soil, deep soil. What happens under a forest? While forests are now seen as what nature would revert back to, if left undisturbed, in reality, forests do not create...
