We speak Vanessa Wiltshire, a Gen-X/Y 'tree changer', living in Heathcote, Victoria.

Three years ago, she and her husband made the leap from suburban Melbourne to Heathcote in rural Victoria. In our chat Vanessa explains:

- How to know if a "tree change" is right for you. - Escaping a career that makes you unhappy and into something that makes you smile (and pays the bills) - The top things to look out for (that most tree changers won't tell you) - Knowing where the GOOD jobs are and how to find them (tapping hidden job market).
