This episode is a solo one, where I give my personal advice of what to look for when searching for a governess job. As I mention in the episode, I do not know everything about this job, so I would love for my community to contribute. Head over to our Instagram or Facebook pages and comment with your advice!

Vanessa was a born and bred Adelaide girl, but after a trip to Central Australia, she found herself moving to the Northern Territory to governess. While she is still governessing many years down the track, that doesn’t mean that she has felt like every family has been the right one for her. This is a vulnerable chat and I love that we have had an opportunity to discuss this!

Welcome back to the podcast! After a break, I am excited to bring this week's guest, Lucy Grant, onto the show. We had a wonderful chat about what her life looked like after leaving school, and how it now looks. 

From starring on Masterchef, to working as a teacher at School of the Air, you could say that this week’s guest, Emma, has had a wide variety of experiences. The passion she has for her job is so clear in our chat and I just loved chatting to Emma and getting to know her better!

From growing up in Sydney, to nannying in western Queensland, this week’s guest, Hannah, has made a few huge life changes over the past two years. I loved her perspective after being out west and how she has been able to connect with the people around her on a deeper level.
