Ingrid Smith, a trailblazer in the agriculture and beauty industries, shares her unique journey, highlighting how she faces online criticism for wearing makeup while farming.
Ingrid explains that some people still hold antiquated views about women in traditionally male-dominated roles, but she cleverly turns negative comments into a source of empowerment.
She also touches on the "Pretty Useful" project, an initiative by her sister Storm Baynes-Ryan, aimed at spotlighting the treatment of women in agriculture.
Smith explains how this project encourages women to embrace their authenticity, regardless of societal expectations.
