The blue jacket is more than corduroy—it's a commitment to serving others. This week on Beyond the Jacket, we're joined by Heath Laubach, the 2025-2026 Oklahoma FFA Northwest Area Vice President. Heath shares how growing up in an agricultural education family, building his own cow-calf operation, and competing in public speaking shaped his journey into state FFA leadership. From overcoming setbacks to discovering confidence behind the microphone, Heath's story is a reminder that growth happens when you choose to keep showing up. Heath is also preparing to attend Oklahoma State University to study Agribusiness Pre-Law while continuing to advocate for agriculture and FFA. Whether you're an FFA member, agricultural educator, or someone chasing a big goal, this episode is packed with encouragement, leadership lessons, and practical advice you won't want to miss. 🎧 Listen now and join us Beyond the Jacket! #BeyondTheJacket #FFA #NationalFFA #OklahomaFFA #HeathLaubach #AgEducation #Agriculture #Leadership #FutureLeaders #BlueJacket #Agribusiness #PublicSpeaking #SAE #TeachAg #FFAOfficer #StudentLeadership #CowCalf #RuralLeadership #AgriculturalAdvocacy #FFAAlumni
