308: Georgie Kavanagh on the chance meeting at a rural pub that took her from Sydney life to farm life

About this episode

Nine years ago, Georgie Kavanagh was living in Sydney, working in influencer marketing while building her French linen and homewares brand, Carlotta + Gee. Farm life was the furthest thing from her life plan. But during a work trip to Orange, she met a bloke named Curtis at the local pub. After a year of long distance, Georgie fell pregnant with their first child and packed up her Sydney life to move to his family's cattle and cropping property near Narromine. The isolation hit hard after their daughter Amelia was born. Now, two and a half years later, Georgie and Curtis have welcomed their second child, seven-month-old Sinclair, and are planning their wedding for early next year. But after navigating a move to the country, first-time motherhood and the isolation of farm life, Georgie says nothing prepared her for her biggest adjustment yet: going from one child to two. This is her story.
