Dr. Killeen uses an unexpected lesson from Nebraska dairy farms to explore how the good and the difficult parts of life often come together. Just as manure can be turned into fertilizer that helps future crops grow, our toughest experiences can build the strength, wisdom, and character that shape who we become. From failed cases and team conflicts to financial setbacks, difficult seasons are part of building a practice and a meaningful life. This episode reminds us that acknowledging the struggle does not mean we have to let it go to waste. The challenge is to ask yourself what the current difficulty can teach you and how you can turn it into something that helps you grow.
