Episode 3 - Roots & Reflections

Season 1, Ep. 3

Where did my love for rural life begin? In this episode, I take a look back at my journey - from my earliest roots in the countryside to the life I live today. I’ll share stories that shaped my passion, the lessons I’ve learned, and some advice for anyone dreaming of a life outdoors. Along the way, I’ll chat about the daily struggles of being a first-time mum, the little things that keep me sane, and the joys (and chaos!) of balancing family, farming, and country living. Tune in for a dose of real-life rural stories, honest reflections, and a good old ramble!
