The Show

Life Montana Style is your guide to discovering the incredible people, places, and experiences that make this place so special.

Put on your boots and hat (but don’t forget your clubs) and join us at Rock Creek Cattle Company in Deer Lodge to learn what golf and cattle have in common. From Deer Lodge we travel east to Wilsall to the North Bridger Bison Ranch, where bison roam once again where their ancestors did in the distant past. Then, join us in Big Sky’s Meadow Village for a cocktail party at a beautiful home that’s perfect for entertaining after a day on the golf course or ski slopes and hear why some locals came to Big Sky to play and then decided to stay. In an exciting finale to Episode #1, we will go behind the scenes at the Big Sky PBR to meet Top Chef Emily Hahn, PBR Producer Eric Ladd and then catch all of the high adrenalin action at the PBR finals!

Network broadcast and streaming coming in late September 2026. Visit this site for timing updates and broadcast & streaming outlets!

The Host

Laura Sacchi — part financial whiz, part fly-fishing guide, full-time Big Sky lifestyle insider. Her show Life Montana Style, shares the region’s quirks, adventures, and luxurious simplicity.

A Colgate grad with an MBA from Columbia, Laura spent nearly 20 years in the fast-paced world of international investment banking in New York before swapping suits for waders and mountains. Now a luxury real estate pro across Big Sky and Southwest Montana, she blends Wall Street savvy with true Montana sense. Her financial know-how, strategic insight, and sharp negotiation skills make her a fierce advocate for buyers and sellers of ranches, riverfront retreats, ski residences, and other high-end lifestyle properties.

Language + local cred: she speaks French and understands Italian and Spanish — perfect for international clientele — and she’s been part of the Big Sky scene since her first visit in 1994. She bought property, moved here full-time in 2001, raised two kids, and never stopped pitching in. Laura founded Morningstar Learning Center, serves on the Big Sky Chapel Board, and has held leadership roles at All Saints in Big Sky. Community matters to her as much as the perfect view.

Licensed in real estate since 2009 and with Big Sky Sotheby’s International Realty on her business card, Laura lives what she sells. She’s an avid skier, hiker, angler, and golfer — and a licensed fly-fishing guide — so she doesn’t just talk about Montana lifestyle, she guides clients into it.
