235: Just Go For It: Building a Multi-Passionate Life with Carley Kintzle

235: Just Go For It: Building a Multi-Passionate Life with Carley Kintzle

In the very first guest interview of the Ages & Stages series, Molly sits down in person with Carley Kintzle a senior at Iowa State University studying agricultural communications and public relations, a cattle exhibitor, the founder of Wild Orchid Co., and a photographer who picked up a camera… and ran with it.

Carley's story is a reminder that you don't have to pick just one lane. From starting a jewelry business in high school (despite never having made leather earrings before) to landing a dream role with Corteva while still in college, Carley shares what it looks like to say yes to opportunity, lean into mentorship, and use networking as a tool, even when it feels uncomfortable.

This conversation is full of energy, practicality, and a message every woman needs: challenges aren't a stop sign, they're often the thing that fuels our growth.

What You'll Hear in This Episode
  • Why Carley started Wild Orchid Co. during COVID (and what her mom said first!)

  • The power of being multi-passionate and embracing it instead of fighting it

  • How Carley's mentors stretched her (even when she wasn't sure she was ready)

  • Why networking matters more than you think and how to do it without being "weird"

  • What the cattle showing circuit taught her about leadership, work ethic, and confidence

  • How she landed her dream role while still in school

  • What success means to Carley in this stage of life

  • The mindset that keeps her moving forward

  • The one line she wants every listener to remember: "Just go for it."
