About this episode
Rachel Bjelke-Petersen spent her childhood weekends travelling Queensland's campdraft circuit with her dad. While horses, cattle and red dirt were always part of her, life took her in many directions, but something was always missing.After spinal surgery in her mid-20s, her goal was simple: get back on a horse… and she did exactly that. In 2022, she packed up and drove 1,100 kilometres west, where she says she'd never felt more at home. Then one unexpected moment changed everything… hitting a pothole and meeting her future husband! Within months, Rachel had stepped into life on Christian's fourth-generation family property, and into motherhood. Alongside her husband, she's since built The Old Hangar, a thriving rural venue in the South Burnett. Rachel's story is about backing yourself, trusting your gut, and building a life you truly love.
