What is RanchHER?
RanchHER profiles the extraordinary women of the ranching industry. The show isn’t limited to just ranching. It offers an intimate look at family life, day-to-day operations, industry policies, and community. Each of these women plays an important role on her ranch and in the industry as a whole, and we want to tell their stories.
Meet Janie Johnson, the New Host of RanchHER TV
Janie’s dad, Clint Johnson, is a four-time World Champion Saddle Bronc Rider and her mom, Mindy, competes in the National Cutting Horse Association. Following in her parent’s footsteps, Janie has competed in multiple rodeo events from a young age, including rodeoing while earning her degree at the University of Texas with high honors in Radio/TV/Film.
Over the past 10 years, Janie has worked with the best talent in Western Sports. From associate producer to becoming a lead behind-the-chutes reporter of the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo, Janie has interviewed the best cowboys and cowgirls in the world on the most prestigious dirt. After two years of traveling the country coast to coast for The Cowboy Channel and reporting live from over 100 PRCA rodeos, Janie recently returned to her family’s ranch in west Texas to take on more of an active role in ranching day-to-day.
Today, she lives in Canyon with her saddle bronc riding husband, Jake Finley, and continues to barrel race as a professional cardholder in the Women’s Professional Rodeo Association. She enjoys working on her family’s cattle ranch while also continuing to build her career in television.
