Episode 101: Karen O'Brien

About this episode

This week, I catch up with rural mum Karen O'Brien who spent 15 years on stations in the Kimberley. From one million acres to just five, Karen, her husband and their four kids eventually packed it all up for life in a quaint rural town on the other side of the country. Somewhere they'd never lived before, with no family ties. Why? Due to one big and very personal decision regarding how they wanted to raise their kids. This is her story.
