What happens when your first experience with dairy goats goes horribly wrong? If you’re Morgan Michaluk, you turn it into a mission.

In this delightful episode, we chat with the founder of The Chatty Goat and author of Homesteading with Dairy Goats: From Birth to Butcher about how she went from goat chaos to goat confidence—and how she’s helping others do the same.

Morgan shares what she’s learned from a decade of raising dairy goats the right way—through regenerative practices that follow nature’s rhythms of grazing, movement, and rest.

She debunks goat stereotypes (they don’t have to scream or escape!), reveals what new goat owners need to know before diving in, and offers a refreshingly honest take on the emotional side of raising animals for milk and meat.

Whether you dream of homesteading or just love a good goat story, this episode will leave you inspired, informed, and maybe even a little goat-smitten.

Warning: You may finish this episode wanting to buy a goat.
