The phrase 'power couple' gets thrown around a lot, but Ellia Green and Vanessa Turnbull-Roberts give it a whole new meaning. Vanessa is a proud Bundjalung woman, activist, author, speaker and 2023 Fulbright Australia scholar. Ellia is a former professional athlete, Olympic gold medalist, ambassador, speaker, and the first Olympic gold medalist to come out as a trans man. They chat to Cam and Ali about their hilarious first date, how they support each other, the fight for the rights of Indigenous peoples in Australia, and how being survivors influences their work to fight for a better world.
