I’m an accidental entrepreneur.

I blame the Summers spent with my Aunt in Red Deer, AB. Even though she made my cousin and I write out a profit and loss statements for our lemonade stand - I still loved the idea of creating something that I was responsible for.

I started sharing my story back in 2017 and gradually the stories of other women both with the same purpose - connection.

Yesterday as Beth and I packed holiday collab boxes, she read the names of all of the wonderful people who supported our small, rural woman ran businesses. We shared stories of how we have connected with you, know you, and appreciate the hell out of you.

Though my entrepreneurial journey has taken me down multiple different roads, it’s the connection that brings me home.

Thank you ❤️

So the girls and I have been waiting a LONG time to share this with you...

I will be featured in the Winter 2021 issue of @trailblazherco Magazine!

This mother-daughter duo, Jan & Erin, are my people. They created this publication to share the stories of resilience and grit of rural women through their beautiful magazine.

A big thank you to Elena @matkovskaphoto for capturing these beautiful images.

REPOST ✨ @trailblazherco
We are so excited to share this feature story about a rural woman who opened a platform for others like her to share their stories and be heard around the world!

Here is an excerpt:
“Sometimes in life, we don’t know what we don’t know. Katelyn Duban found herself in this situation back in 2016 when she married a farmer – her farmer, Justin. Coming from a city lifestyle and a career in a post secondary environment, Katelyn began farm life with a sense of nervous anticipation about how she would acquire a lay of the land and find her place on the farm. City born and raised, she entered into her new rural environment unprepared, but determined to figure it out.”
In the spring of 2019 Duban launched The Rural Woman Podcast. Since then, she has shared the stories of incredible women involved in all parts of agriculture from farming, ranching, homesteading, agribusiness and beyond. With over a quarter of a million downloads from 140+ countries around the world Duban continues to share the importance of Women in Agriculture while sharing her own story through social media under the handle Wild Rose Farmer
Whether you’re born into a rural lifestyle or you’ve married into it – rest assured you can claim your place and find where you belong. Coupled with gorgeous photos from Elena Matkovska Elena Matkovska Photography this is a feature story that will leave you inspired and anxious to get listening to The Rural Woman Podcast Episodes, if you haven’t already 😉.

Connection. That's my favourite part.

Thanks to my friends @trailblazhercollective for the feature. These fine folks are helping to build that larger inclusive table for Rural Women.

Born and raised in Southern Alberta, Katelyn Duban married into agriculture in 2016 & had to transition into living rurally. Katelyn had wanted to find women going through the same experience, so as a way to connect with other women in the rural community, Katelyn began sharing her experience online - hoping to gain insight, support & create a community. Duban soon expanded to include a blog & in 2019 started her entrepreneurial venture into online retail & launched @theruralwomanpodcast .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Katelyn started her business as an extension & to build on what she had already been doing personally. She started sharing her story online through social media as a way to connect with other Women in Agriculture. Not growing up in a rural setting to living & breathing all things rural was a big adjustment & knowing that she probably wasn't alone in that transition, she took it upon herself to shift the focus from simply sharing her story, to sharing the stories of others as well. Katelyn also runs @wildrosefarmer, & from there you can shop for her apparel, read her blog, & get coaching on how to start a podcast!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Katelyn shared with us the things that she has became fond of over the past few years of being out of the city, & what she has found is that living rural is a beautiful way to live. She goes on to say that there are times where it's messy & hard, but most notably even behind those times there is a lesson to be learned.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As always, we asked her what one question she would ask the trailblazher community if given the chance, & she had this to say.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"How can we work together to build a bigger table, be inclusive, & have a stronger connection?"⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We LOVE this question - it can feel lonely as a rural entrepreneur, so give us your ideas below as to what you do to not only build but keep a good connection.

I spent the last two days in a room filled with incredible women from my local community.

We came together to learn, support and grow. Those things were possible because we allowed ourselves to be vulnerable and seen.

This was my first non-Ag specific speaking engagement. Getting to share my story and perspective with an audience that was predominantly outside of Ag as a way to connect them to our industry was a great experience and one I’d love to do again.

Thank you again to @lethchamber for allowing this city-gone-rural-gal to paint the barn and speak on your stage. Here’s to women supporting women 👊🏼❤️

Side note - the term ‘paint the barn’ was semi lost on my audience 😂😉 but you know, right??

Don't miss Back to Business, the Lethbridge Chamber's first annual Women's Conference.

We will have two days of incredible speakers, including Katelyn Duban of Wild Rose Farmer Inc. with her presentation "The Art of Pivoting".

Katelyn, born and raised in Southern Alberta, Canada married into agriculture in 2016. At the time, it was not her intention to be an active member of the farm but quickly found a passion for the farm life.

Katelyn continues to develop her skills as a grain farmer on and off of the field. She found a love for livestock early on in her farming journey and has raised a variety of meat goats as well as bottle calves.

As an avid podcast listener, Katelyn found herself searching for a podcast that shared the important roles women in agriculture provide for the industry. When she could not find a podcast that met her criteria she began working on her own podcast. In the spring of 2019 she launched The Rural Woman Podcast.

Since then, Katelyn has shared the stories of incredible women involved in all parts of agriculture from farming, ranching, homesteading, agribusiness and beyond. With over a quarter of a million downloads from countries all around the world. Katelyn continues to share the importance of Women in Agriculture while sharing her own story through social media under the handle Wild Rose Farmer.

I have been asked to join in the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization's Committee on World Food Security Regional Consultations over the next two days.

These consultations will contribute to the preparation of the Voluntary Guidelines on Gender Equality and Women’s and Girls’ Empowerment in the Context of Food Security and Nutrition.

The regional consultations are an opportunity to receive inputs, comments, and suggestions on how to best align the Guidelines with regional/national priorities and needs.

I am looking forward to listening, learning, and providing my voice as a woman in agriculture.

Here’s to another windy weekend in the yard ☕️

Kitty & Babs get a 4/10 on perennial bed clean up. They spent more time jumping in flower boxes vs. cleaning them up. And chased cats.
