Shownotes
Today on Your Ag Empire, Jonathon sits down with Sharon Beach—a Texas rancher who built her reputation one handshake at a time. Sharon spent 25 years at Merck, then pivoted into private equity where she helped raise $165 million. Now she’s leading EA Capital, connecting investors to agriculture-backed lending without the corporate fluff.
If you’ve ever wondered how to bet on yourself (and back it up), or you’re curious what it looks like to blend ranch values with Wall Street returns, you’ll want to hear this one.
In this episode, we cover:
- Why trust beats fancy credentials every time
- What Sharon learned moving from the pasture to the private markets
- The difference between looking rich and being wealthy
- How agriculture shaped her approach to deals—and life
- Why she believes direct lending is about to change ag finance for good
If Sharon’s story got you thinking about your next move, send this episode to someone else building their own operation. And tap follow so you catch the next conversation.
