Amanda Owen took a while away from Ravenseat Farm in North Yorkshire to talk with Lorraine Kelly about her solo show, Amanda Owen’s Extraordinary Farming Lives. The mother-of-nine was asked by the Scottish broadcaster how she prevents herself from running herself into the bottom, with Amanda admitting having no phone signal helps her cope.
Lorraine began: “You have got got, what’s it? 1,000 sheep, 40 cows, six dogs, 4 horses and nine kids?”
When asked how she avoids getting feelings of burnout, Amanda shared with ITV viewers: “I mean, listening to the signs of burnout, I feel like I’m fortunate as I even have the green space… The good outdoors.
“I also live in a not spot – a spot where my phone doesn’t ring.
“You realize when you’ve got got so many stresses contacting you and your brain looks like it goes into overload?

Amanda replied: “I’m content, but you do should take a bit of little bit of time for yourself.
“So every morning, even when I’m only going to be out feeding the sheep or across the farm, I take a bit of little bit of self-care for five minutes.
“I get the old moisturiser on and a bit of little bit of mascara, and it makes you’re feeling higher about yourself.”
Amanda announced she and Clive were parting ways last summer after greater than 20 years together.
