In this special edition of Women Who Hunt, I sit down with Christie Green — land and water steward, landscape architect, educator, hunter, and author of the powerful memoir Moonlight Elk: One Woman’s Hunt for Food and Freedom.

I first discovered Christie through her book on Audible, and the moment I pressed play, I couldn’t stop listening. Her voice, her honesty, and the way she moves through the wild with intention and courage resonated deeply — and this conversation is every bit as powerful.

Christie shares how learning to hunt transformed her life across the landscapes of New Mexico and Alaska. From harvesting her own food to shedding the expectations placed on women, her journey is a raw and inspiring exploration of freedom, place, and identity.

We dive into:

how Christie learned to hunt elk, deer, and turkey

the connection between food, land, and belonging

navigating a male-dominated hunting culture

transforming fear into intuition and confidence

the themes behind Moonlight Elk

her upcoming books, Salmon Dreaming and The New Meridian

This episode goes deep — into instinct, courage, womanhood, wilderness, and the profound lessons that hunting offers.

If you’re a woman who hunts, wants to hunt, or loves powerful stories from the outdoors, this conversation will stay with you long after it ends.

In this episode of Women Who Hunt, Carly sits down with Rachel Hobden, whose story begins in the paddocks of the South West Slopes — following her dad through pest control missions, fox calling nights, and early lessons on respect for the land, the animal, and the hunt.

As a child, Rachel wasn’t allowed to shoot yet, but she was right there beside her dad, hauling the gut pile under a tree to watch foxes come in.

Years later, after life, kids, and a long break from the sport, Rachel’s husband reignited the spark — taking her back onto the range and straight into pistol shooting, where she discovered she had a natural talent… and a serious love for Tanfoglio pistols.

Today she shoots competition .22, beats her husband (regularly), reloads, trains hard, and has stepped up as a female Range Officer, giving back to the sport and supporting new shooters — especially women walking onto the line for the first time.

In this episode, we talk about:

Rachel’s honesty, humour, and heritage make this an episode packed with heart and practical, lived experience.

In this solo episode, I take you back through my journey with deer — from magical early encounters on misty lakes in my twenties, to filming Glenn and Ethan’s first reds at Happy Valley, to the countless lessons I learned in the bush with Lawson from Natures Perks.

With my Tikka .308 in hand, I finally stepped out from behind the camera and into the hunter’s seat. What happened next was a series of stalks I’ll never forget — intense, heart-stopping moments in the bush where everything seemed to be falling into place…

This is From Behind the Camera to Behind the Rifle.
