Zoë Colville - The Chief Shepherdess

Sobre este episodio

<p>Zoë&nbsp;Colville has gone from high end hairdresser in London to shepherdess on a farm in Kent. She’s also changed from a vegetarian to a farmer learning about death and going to abattoirs, an experience which surprised her. Far from being your typical farmer, with her trademark long curly red hair and gold hoop earrings as well as her humour and honesty, she has challenged people’s views of farmers and their relationship with the animals. In turn, despite many personal hurdles, she has found her purpose. Using her Instagram account, The Chief Shepherdess,&nbsp;Zoë&nbsp;shares stories from the farm and wants to educate people on how animals are reared and how farming is changing.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Here, she talks about all of this, why she made her drastic life change, her relationship with her fiancé Kriss and the unexpected events in her life that have transformed her.&nbsp;</p><br><p>You can buy a copy of&nbsp;Zoë’s book “The Chief Shepherdess, Lessons in Life, Love and Farming” here:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.waterstones.com/book/the-chief-shepherdess/zoe-colville/9781787635746" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.waterstones.com/book/the-chief-shepherdess/zoe-colville/9781787635746</a></p><br><p>Content warning: includes a detailed explanation of how animals are slaughtered.</p><br><p>Changes is a deaf friendly podcast, transcripts can be accessed here:<a href="https://www.anniemacmanus.com/changes" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://www.anniemacmanus.com/changes</a></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
