Today’s guest is someone you may not always see front and center, but I promise you’ve felt the impact of her work in a big way.
Emily Sharkey is the creative force behind the SharkFarmer brand—serving as Executive Producer of SharkFarmer Radio on SiriusXM Rural Radio Channel 147 and Producer of SharkFarmer TV on RFD-TV. She’s the heart and the hustle behind the SharkFarmer operation—and she also happens to be married to the SharkFarmer himself, Rob.
We met up while at Farm Progress to record this episode in front of a live audience at the RFD-TV booth stage! Emily opens up about her journey back to farming, the struggles her family faced across generations, and the innovative solutions that helped them stay afloat. We talk about the evolution of the SharkFarmer podcast and TV show, the importance of connecting with other farmers through honest storytelling, and the pride that comes from overcoming obstacles in both business and life.
We also share some fun personal anecdotes—hidden talents, family dynamics, and the moments that keep her grounded through it all. Emily is warm, witty, and as real as it gets, and I know y’all are going to love getting to know the woman behind the SharkFarmer brand.
Let’s get dirty with Emily.
