Welcome to this week's episode of Coffee in the Barn with

Morgan Hart
0:00:43
Morgan and Casey. This week, we're going to be talking with two employees of Animistic that have moved to the U.S. from different backgrounds and kind of the personal journeys and challenges that they've had to work through as they've moved from a different country to the United States.

Casey Bradley
0:01:10
And I'm going to jump in here, Morgan, because I thought this would be a good topic and I could pick on my employees and let everybody get to know them better. But as most people know, I work with a lot of international students and so I thought this was kind of a really

Casey Bradley
0:01:26
important topic. How do I come to the US, the journey and it's really cumbersome and difficult. So I'm helping Veronica or we call her Vera and Chantel will discuss their challenges. So just the insight and I'll let them introduce themselves but Chantel and I have known each other since I've almost started the company five years ago and she hails from South Africa and then Vero has been with me for three years and she hails from Ecuador but both are now officially in the United States.

Morgan Hart
0:02:02
So with that, Chantal, I'll let you introduce yourself first since I've known you the longest, and give a little bit about your background and a little bit about you.

Chantel P.
0:02:09
Hi everyone, thank you for having me today. I'm really excited.

Chantel P.
0:02:15
It's the second time I've been on your podcast now, so really excited to be back. This time being in the US, really exciting. So obviously everybody knows, my name is Chantal Pinnicott. I'm from South Africa. Currently, I am the nutritionist and R&D manager here at Animistic.

Chantel P.
0:02:34
I've been working for Animistic just over a month now, although I've known Casey for quite a few years. My background is in pig nutrition and simulation modeling, but I do have experience with equine, poultry, pets now, as well as working with Casey. And then something about me is that I'm a trail runner, so really happy to be here in the Ozark Mountain Range.

Chantel P.
0:03:00
Plenty of mountains to run on, so really happy to be here.

Casey Bradley
0:03:05
And we're happy to have you. How about you, Vero?

Vero Choi
0:03:09
Okay. Well, hello, everyone. Thanks for having me here too. It's kind of weird being on this side of the curtains, normally I work behind the curtains on the podcast, but thank you, it's exciting to be here.

Vero Choi
0:03:27
Well as you know, I'm here now in LA, here with my daughter. Well now, a little bit of me, I have a bachelor's degree in social communication and I do all things about social media designing or email marketing and stuff like that. books and used to jog, used to go for good runs but not anymore. I had a knee surgery so I had to stop that. But I'm okay.

Casey Bradley
0:04:13
And I was gonna say everybody who thinks we look really good out there it's

Casey Bradley
0:04:17
because of Vero. So I do have input but she makes sure things get done.

Casey Bradley
0:04:28
So what, I mean, maybe Chantel, I'll start with you, because I think you've been in the U.S. for three years now.

Morgan Hart
0:04:36
What kind of brought you or motivated you to move to the U.S. from South Africa?

Chantel P.
0:04:43
That's a question that a lot of people ask me, and there's not a straightforward answer, but basically my background being in animal nutrition, I've always been really passionate about nutrition, but I've also really been

Chantel P.
0:04:56
passionate about animal welfare and connecting the dots between those two. And so I really wanted to advance my career, my education, and my experience. And in order to do that, I needed to move overseas, meeting with Casey, while I was working at the Bainesville Climate Research Unit and met Casey during one of her online courses, we connected from there on and she basically connected me with the University of Arkansas and the Center for Food Animal Wellbeing. And I thought that that was a great opportunity to connect nutrition and welfare and physiology and help with gaining some skills in the lab as well,

Chantel P.
0:05:41
not just animal research on the ground, but some laboratory skills is always a plus. So basically, everything just lined up perfectly, pretty much, that, you know, when life opens doors, it kind of make

Morgan Hart
0:06:07
Wow wonderful, glad Casey to help you to be able to that transition you know through the university and now you know into the workforce, real life, the stepping stone. Vero I know you most recently just moved to the United States?

Morgan Hart
0:06:30
I know you mentioned you're here with your daughter.

Morgan Hart
0:06:32
And I'm guessing that's probably was part of it.

Vero Choi
0:06:36
Yes, well, we came here January 18. This year, so we're here a month ago. Yeah, I think we just we wanted better opportunities like professionally and personally for me and my daughter. Back home, things like, I think they were becoming a bit stagnant and maybe I feel like I reached a ceiling

Vero Choi
0:07:02
in terms of growth. So my father has been living here for many years and he always told me about possibilities here in the US, diversity, the education system, and maybe the chance to build something from scratch. So when the opportunity came, we took it.

Morgan Hart
0:07:26
Is your father in LA, or did you just choose LA for a certain reason?

Vero Choi
0:07:31
No, no, he's been living here for many years.

Vero Choi
0:07:38
Yeah.

Morgan Hart
0:07:39
So your father's in LA too?

Morgan Hart
0:07:42
That's what she's been calling?

Morgan Hart
0:07:43
Yeah, this year.

Casey Bradley
0:07:44
Or she'd be in Arkansas.

Morgan Hart
0:07:45
Sometimes I always wonder why people that move from out of the country into the United States, why they pick the different places that they live.

Casey Bradley
0:07:51
She said she moved to Arkansas because her dad's in LA.

Chantel P.
0:07:59
People always ask me, why Arkansas? That's the last place that David thinks of. And I'm like, well, Northwest Arkansas is a little bit different to Flatland Arkansas. Not that there's anything wrong with Flatland Arkansas, but the opportunities here are really great. So I agree with Vera on that one for sure. It's really nice that, Vera, you had your dad here. I moved here not knowing a single being and never ever having come to the United States ever.

Chantel P.
0:08:26
So it was a big jump. 

Morgan Hart
0:08:31
It was quite the, probably the culture shock there, Chantelle, was like, what was the biggest thing that surprised you, I guess, from moving, once you moved to the United States?

Chantel P.
0:08:40
Besides the crazy weather here in Northwest Arkansas, where we can have 40 degrees Celsius jumps in one day. I've never known how much Fahrenheit that is. I should know that by now. But besides the weather, I would say, let's go with the negative thing first. It would be the cost of living is so much higher. That was a huge adjustment for me. I didn't realize how expensive things would be. I mean, at home, it's very expensive relative to minimum wage.

Chantel P.
0:09:15
But here, maybe it's just because I'm converting dollars around in my head all the time. The cost of living just seems very high. Another adjustment maybe would be just the culture and the people. It's very much like within the industry, once you're within a sector, everyone kind of sticks together. Whereas back home, everybody knows everybody,

Chantel P.
0:09:38
and maybe that's just me coming from a smaller farm into what I would call a big city, although Fayetteville maybe isn't a big city to a lot of people. It is to me, so yeah, lots of things that were a big adjustment.

Casey Bradley
0:09:52
Well, maybe we get some fresher adjustments for Vero one year in, or not one year, that'd be three years in, one month. Like, what's been the biggest shock and awe to you when you arrived?

Vero Choi
0:10:04
I think the biggest shock has been traffic laws because I thought it's not that like you drive like in your country here is very different all the freeways and traffic laws and no green green arrows to turn for me was shocking.

Vero Choi
0:10:26
For me, it was checking.

Casey Bradley
0:10:28
Did you pass, Vero?

Casey Bradley
0:10:30
Did you pass your driver's test?

Vero Choi
0:10:32
Oh, I'm taking it next week.

Vero Choi
0:10:35
Oh, next week. Oh, okay. I had to pay to practice. I've been practicing with my dad. And I know the guy is going to take me to practice that too because I'm nervous.

Chantel P.
0:10:45
That's something I forgot about. I forgot that I had to do a driver's test. Yeah, that was a big adjustment. Driving for 10 years and then having to go read your text again is very stressful. More so than the first time because you get all these bad habits. So I feel for you, Vera.

Chantel P.
0:11:00
I actually forgot about that.

Chantel P.
0:11:01
So much has happened in three years.

Morgan Hart
0:11:03
Casey, your mission has always been about helping people moving from surviving to thriving. How does Animistic embody this? this and how have you helped the employees as they've made those transitions?

Casey Bradley
0:11:17
Oh wow, I have a soft spot. I wear my heart on the sleeve. Either way you want to describe myself, but I even feel like I'm living the American dream, and I would say I'm probably fourth, fifth generation,

Casey Bradley
0:11:42
depending on how far you want to go back. And I feel like I'm finally living the American dream and first generation to go to college, first doctor in my family. And my career has taken me to having, growing up with social anxiety,

Casey Bradley
0:11:59
working with animals because people scared me. Animals teaching me to love people and, you know, even if you ask my parents or people who know me, they would have never thought I'd get on a plane and travel the world. And it was a tremendous opportunity to meet people of all different cultures and realize how wonderful people are and how we're all good and we're very

Casey Bradley
0:12:23
similar but yet very different. And then meeting people who didn't have the same opportunities as I did. And I feel like it's 2025 now, and I'd like to see some rise in equity for a lot of people and give people opportunities, talented people that want to work hard and be able to live the dream. You know, if I wasn't married and had a child, I wouldn't have a problem moving across the world like my friend, Fariba, just did. And but yeah, I know how challenging that is. I worked with a lot of international students working at the university and seeing them come here and then staying and becoming a valuable part of our industry and the friendships and the

Casey Bradley
0:13:11
they bring us has been incredible. And so I've always wanted to help people. Chantel, I helped previously as an intern. She told me about her desire to come here. I found her a job. Her husband actually worked for a company in Northwest Arkansas. So for the position I found her, it worked out well. Who knew on the same type of visa she had, she could actually come work with me or I would have hired her like three years ago and been further ahead probably,

Casey Bradley
0:13:41
but we live and learn, right? And I guess that's the biggest challenge of fighting the visas, finding the positions, either it's for graduate school or jobs, it's very challenging. I go into a lot of the content we've shared

Casey Bradley
0:13:55
on The Real P3 and on Coffee in the Barn, that the way we treat migrant workers or especially Hispanic workers, I don't think it's been right in my career. I don't feel like they've had a voice. So I've tried to give them a voice. And with that, that means animistic. I don't just talk about it. I actually do it. So I do fund and I help Bernard's family out. He's finishing his Ph.D. financially where I can emotional support. Chantel doesn't have a family, but that's a lie because I'm her family here.

Casey Bradley
0:14:33
And same with Vera. So Vera is now my family here. And there's nothing I would do. I sacrifice my profits. I sacrifice my own salary to help my employees achieve their dreams and I think either one of them would probably tell you that I've done that for them. And so that's just living my mission and here are two beautiful examples of that working out.

Morgan Hart
0:14:57
I know Casey just hit you

Morgan Hart
0:15:07
know a lot of high points on the culture and the values of Animistic, but how, in your guys' eyes, Chantel and Vero, how has Animistic supported

Morgan Hart
0:15:18
the both of you as you've made that professional and personal change from, you know, your home countries to now the United States?

Vero Choi
0:15:27
Well, I'm deeply grateful to Casey for the opportunity to work with her. Back in Ecuador, I worked remotely for Animistic, and now I'm in the US, and I'm still part of the team. So, well this job has helped me grow especially. I think improving my English and developing my skills

Vero Choi
0:15:49
in marketing and social media design and stuff. And I think Casey has truly helped me thrive, not just by trusting me with responsibilities, but encouraging me to keep learning. I believe great people aren't just those with titles, but those who lift others up. And I think Casey has been that kind of mentor to me.

Casey Bradley
0:16:15
Wow.

Casey Bradley
0:16:16
I am going to cry now

Chantel P.
0:16:18
I mean, I couldn't say it really much better than Vero. Casey has been a family member to me, not just my boss now. But whether I've worked for Casey or not worked for Casey, she's always been there to support me, whether that's just to talk or to help me through visa stuff or tax. I mean, I've navigated in a new country, navigating new paperwork and stuff. Casey's always my number one person that I go to for anything personal or work related. So Casey really is there to lift people up and makes you feel like a family member and

Chantel P.
0:17:00
not just an employee through positive reinforcement. So she really pushes you in all the right ways. think we can all, you know, Casey's been a part of our lives in many different facets over the, you know, five to ten years that we've been working with her and, you know, I would echo what you guys have both said, you know, along my journey with working with Casey as well. 

Morgan Hart
0:17:31
Kind of shifting gears a little bit, you know, sometimes a lot of the challenges that people have to overcome when they move to the US or a different country than where they're originally from is aren't really talked about. And so specifically, you know, Vero, you're recently new to the US.

Morgan Hart
0:17:51
What are some of those challenges or difficulties that you, I guess, weren't really aware of prior to moving to the US? I know you highlighted on the point of having to get your driver, take your driver's test again,

Morgan Hart
0:18:09
which can be a little daunting where you're in a country where the signs mean completely different things than what they do back at home. But is there anything else that's been a little bit more challenging as you've made the shift?

Vero Choi
0:18:21
Yes, maybe the emotional struggles. I've been, I live with my mom like my whole life and living her and she's aged now, that's been difficult to me. Also I think feeling a little Here, don't know what to do or how to get my ID or, I don't know, the social security number or stuff like that. Or maybe on this side, missing the small comforts from home. The connections that I had with family, friends.

Vero Choi
0:19:09
challenge here of making real connections.

Vero Choi
0:19:12
It's not just about adapting to a new place, but also about redefining your identity in a different culture. Maybe that, yeah.

Morgan Hart
0:19:18
How are you staying connected with your mom or with family and friends back at home?

Vero Choi
0:19:25
Well, now, thanks to technology it's easier. You're just one call away, one message away. Now it's really easy and somehow you feel them close to you.

Morgan Hart
0:19:57
for you? Was there any crazy challenges or difficulties when you first came over?

Chantel P.
0:20:04
It's actually really nice listening to Vero because her challenges, every single one she listed, I felt. And you do feel alone. But now I realize that you're actually not alone.

Chantel P.
0:20:17
There's so many people that are new to this country or even just not this country, moving around the world. You're not alone in how you're feeling. And I think it's really important not to lose your identity.

Chantel P.
0:20:32
This past weekend I found a South African store and my husband and I went in there and we went crazy and ate a whole bunch this weekend and we're in food comas just eating food from home. But besides that, just making food from home, you know, your traditional dishes, I feel really helps us in just keeping up with those traditions, keeping in touch with family.

Chantel P.
0:20:53
My family, most of my family don't live in South Africa, so I lived in South Africa without many family members there anyway. They're mostly in Europe, so that wasn't a difficult part for me, but the time difference between the countries is quite difficult to keep in touch with family as well and friends back home. I mean, it's eight hours difference. So that's been a big adjustment. But yeah, just staying true to yourself, finding your identity. Bureau does get easier almost three years in. And I still feel a little bit lost, but it does get better over time.

Casey Bradley
0:21:29
and visas is a nightmare. And we all should write our congressmen and senators to get this fixed. And so many of them used it as political bandstanding or whatever BS over the last two decades, right? We need to fix our immigration. We need to be able to bring talented people here and we need to make a clear process

Casey Bradley
0:21:53
and an affordable process because there's a lot of lawyers that also take advantage of hard-working people that drag out processes the cost right because there's no clear path to do that and You know Vera waited Probably over three years before she got her green card to come here, even though her dad was from here I mean as a citizen, you know Chantal, like I said, I had no clue that I could have hired her under the scholar visa three years ago, or we would have had her here long before trying to find her a position.

Casey Bradley
0:22:35
Right. So there's a lot of good people that want to come here or stay here. And it's very challenging for me to help them. I mean, Liliana is another great example is that she's been here a long time. Her kids are all born here, but her husband was on a TN visa and she was a supporting spouse. So she couldn't legally work for us until she got her green card. PhD from Texas A&M, her husband's working here,

Casey Bradley
0:23:06
but yet can't work. She's talented, we're losing out on that talent. I can go on and on about all the stories, but our immigration policies suck, you know, and there's not really good alternatives. Even the Chantel's finding coming here of how can I stay here because I value this. I'm not done living my dream. I'm not done growing. And yet we don't have a clear process for them. So I just that's my bandwagon for the audience, but I feel very passionate about it

Casey Bradley
0:23:42
No matter what country they come from that there's some really incredible people all of our families were immigrants And we should help them want to live the American dream We still value and hope that we still have that American dream to live as well

Chantel P.
0:23:56
Yeah, Casey. I agree. I mean, I understand the need for immigration policies and having those in place, but it just seems so convoluted. And being here almost three years, I'm still learning new things about my own visa, like you were saying. So it just, it seems like the rules bend and change, and it just depends on who you ask.

Chantel P.
0:24:19
And resources are not very great, and it's very expensive, and that's what I was referring

Chantel P.
0:24:24
to earlier.

Chantel P.
0:24:25
So it really is a pity, because I know so many educated people who can really add value to

Chantel P.
0:24:29
the country.

Morgan Hart
0:24:30
Chantel, you know, you mentioned that you're, I think you moved here with your husband, correct? Yes. And, you know, Casey was that stool, that third leg to kind of help you in the transition moving to the US. support systems within like your community or a church or whatnot since you have came over?

Chantel P.
0:24:52
Yes I would say for any new person coming over in Vera I'm not sure I've only just met you but what your hobbies are is to go find a club that does something you like to do any community stuff because all my friends that I've made here have either been my neighbors, my house, someone I work with, or someone I run with. So really joining a club or just getting out of your comfort zone and volunteering and things like that. You really meet some amazing people and that's

Chantel P.
0:25:27
where I've met most of my friends here.

Morgan Hart
0:25:30
Are there some like strategies or things that you've implemented within your lifestyle that has helped your transition to the United States be a little bit smoother? I know you mentioned like cooking meals from home, anything else that that you guys have done?

Chantel P.
0:25:46
I mean, the only things we could bring from home is just staying in touch with

Chantel P.
0:25:53
family and cooking things from home. With regard to transition, I mean it's say that... I would say, okay, yes, because the people that I've met here, what's helped with the transition is maybe sharing stories with them from home,

Chantel P.
0:26:13
making them understand our perspectives and things that's been quite a big adjustment is different perspectives of the world. People with different upbringings always will have a different perspective. So sharing stories maybe is another way we try to adjust. And we've just got a new puppy, so we officially have a dog child. And that's helped us adjust to being here. And yeah, it's difficult to say because it's a completely different place. So there's only so much you can bring with you.

Morgan Hart
0:26:48
And Vero for you, is there anything that's helped with your transition over the last five weeks?

Vero Choi
0:26:55
Well besides what Chantel said, I think... I don't know.

Casey Bradley
0:27:00
What's it like living with your dad versus your mom?

Vero Choi
0:27:04
Oh wow, yeah, it's very very different, very different, but I thank my mom because she always introduces to the Korean food, so we really like it. And then here we enjoy Korean food even more than back in my country. We have a Korean market here. And then on that side was not like so difficult because my

Vero Choi
0:27:32
dad is from South Korea and my mom is Ecuadorian. The food is so different, but I know both sides, so with that, it's not been difficult to adapt. Because my dad, he married again, so his wife always has Korean food here at home. So smells, tastes, and textures, and everything's different, but it's not hard for me.

Vero Choi
0:28:00
I really enjoy it and love it.

Vero Choi
0:28:04
That's been like a...

Vero Choi
0:28:06
There's a special word.

Vero Choi
0:28:08
Well, I just forgot.

Casey Bradley
0:28:10
I'm coming to visit for dinner because I bet you have a lot better Korean food than we do in Arkansas.

Morgan Hart
0:28:15
I feel like there's a lot more options in LA.

Casey Bradley
0:28:17
Well, we could probably serve up quite a bit of Ecuadorian type food here, but not as really

Casey Bradley
0:28:24
good Korean.

Vero Choi
0:28:25
Well, I'm glad we have here really, really, really nice Korean food, so that on that side

Vero Choi
0:28:33
transition has been smooth and nice. Good.

Morgan Hart
0:28:40
Yeah. Well, as you guys continue your journeys here in the US, where do you kind of see yourself

Casey Bradley
0:28:48
in the next five years, Chantel?

Casey Bradley
0:28:52
That feels like an interview question. Where I see myself in the next five years,

Chantel P.
0:28:57
so being here almost three years, you think day to day or week to week, are you making no progress or in transitioning here and things like that.

Chantel P.
0:29:17
But then looking back two and a half years ago, and I'm like, wow, when we got here versus now, we've made such big adjustments. So who knows five years from now, but starting officially full time with Casey now has really helped me sort of shape the future, because before that it was quite unknown. But Casey and I have some really great business ideas that will hopefully be up and running full steam in five years' time, being full-scale businesses.

Chantel P.
0:29:50
So that's going to be really great. It's the first time I've ever thought that I could be part of a business owner in another country. Hopefully I will have my green card by then as well, or should I say. And yeah, just building more community, maybe living in a different house further out of town.

Chantel P.
0:30:14
My husband and I really enjoy farm-style living, so hopefully that will happen in five years.

Chantel P.
0:30:21
Yeah, maybe another dog.

Morgan Hart
0:30:26
It's a step process. And Vera, what about you? I know your feet are still wet in moving and whatnot, but where do you see yourself in

Vero Choi
0:30:43
the next three to five years? Well I also hope to feel fully settled here in the US, standing around too with my daughter, I don't know. I would like to pursue maybe a new career path now that I'm here and I know my, I have my dad's support. I don't know, who knows, it can be different from what I'm doing like right now. But I don't know, building a life, continue to learn, grow, and contribute in meaningful ways.

Casey Bradley
0:31:27
Well, I was going to say we're hoping to, now that she's here officially and her new branding she just did, we're going to hopefully get her some awards here and people be seeking her out for her design skills.

Morgan Hart
0:31:40
Well, I think we're just kind of wrapping up things here.

Do you guys have any final thoughts, Chantel or Vero, on advice for others that are chasing their dreams to move to a new country or start a new career path or anything new in that sense?

Chantel P.

Yeah, I mean, any big jump in life, I would be a risk taker, but it's okay to be scared and to do it anyway. Not to have everything planned out is also okay, but having some form of planning so that you're not going backwards and having to go back home or something like that, just having those sort of things planned out. But you don't have to have every single little thing planned out. So it's okay to feel out of place, and it does get better.

So, yeah, don't be afraid to chase your dreams, chase your careers, and advance your life in that way, even if it's not a new country but a new job, anything like that. So, yeah, just push yourself, and I think it'll be worth it.

Vera, do you have anything else to add?

Vero Choi

Yeah, well, embracing change is always challenging, but growth comes from stepping out of your comfort zone. So you just have to be, I guess, patient with yourself and also celebrate small wins and don't be afraid to ask for help.

Those are all good ones. Thank you guys for joining us today on Coffee in the Barn and enlightening us and hopefully for those that are listening that are either transitioning to a new country, moving to the US, starting a new job, some of the advice and things that you heard on today's episode will help you navigate your struggles and the things that you have to overcome as you move forward. I'm glad they're going to change our country for the better and hopefully in turn, you know, make our world better. Thank you for having us and letting us speak and letting us connect. I'm so glad that I connected with Vera now. I feel like I have someone to connect with at work, more and more people.

So it's really nice to hear somebody else's perspective coming from a completely different country to a completely different place in the US, that's still feeling the same. It definitely makes me feel not so alone. So really glad and for this opportunity. Yeah, I'm glad for this opportunity to thank you for this invitation. It's
