The 6% with NancyMD


Jun 14, 2021

 

Episode Overview:

 

In the United States, only 2% of the population work in agriculture. The choice to join the industry though-- was easy for our guest, Stacy Mayo-Martinez.

 

Growing in a small town on a farm working with cattle and livestock and having a degree in agricultural communications, Stacy grew to work on the marketing side of the agricultural industry. Being one of the few women in the industry, she saw beyond that and, having grown in a diverse small town, Stacy knew she needed to hold her place and make her opinions known.

 

Currently, she’s still setting up her podcast, but it’s called Connect, Change, and Challenge! She focuses on the many great people she’s met through her life-- and hopefully new friends too! Each episode will feature unique challenges that professionals can definitely learn from.

 

She calls people to suppress the fears and intimidation of being the only woman in their industry, instead see it as exciting-- to be able to pave the way for more women in the future. Use it to build your confidence, your knowledge, and progress women forward.

 

Episode Highlights:

 

  • Growing up on a farm in a small town
  • Her college journey to Agriculture Communications
  • The Marketing side of the Agricultural Industry
  • How Stacy decided to look at her male-dominated field
  • Shifting perspective on working with mostly men

 

About the Guest:

 

Stacy started as a marketing professional in an agency focused on public relations and content creation. Eventually, she moved into work with the state government to support small businesses in agriculture to equip them with the appropriate brand materials for larger scales.

 

Now with her own business, Mayonez Marketing helps organizations, businesses, and individuals looking to meet their goals, create change, and grow. For her first stand-alone project, Stacy started her own podcast called Connect, Change, and Challenge to impart knowledge and bite-sized challenges to listeners for their own career growth.
