Break Feed: Thriving Farming Women, with Loshni Manikam

What if family + farming does not equal complete happiness? Loshni Manikam is Fonterra’ s Dairy Woman of the Year 2018, a former lawyer, a leadership coach and looks after 600 cows and 3 children in Southland with her husband.

Loshni joined us at Beef + Lamb New Zealand’s Southern Ladies' Long Lunch to discuss why farming women feel guilty when they think of doing something for themselves and why it is so important to break out of that guilt cycle.

You’ll want to find out more, so check out her Thriving Farming Women Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/thrivingfarmingwomen/
