Meagan has the great pleasure to serve on Nicole Masters' international team of agroecological coaches that are training systems thinking, boots-on-the-ground ecological coaches to work with ranchers and farmers worldwide. Meagan is an animated, straightforward coach that sparks potential through curious questions to ignite crucial conversations that open gates for action. Her joy in coaching is working with an individual or team, with a story of challenges and transforming those into a reality of possibility and opportunity.  When not
coaching humans, Meagan is calling cows. She and her husband own Barney Creek Livestock, a regenerative adaptive grazing operation in Montana's Paradise Valley in the Greater Yellowstone ecosystem.
