Are you looking for your kind of people?
We know where to find them
It’s just one of the benefits of THE Rural Woman!
Learn. Teach.People Who Get It.#alltheanswersliewithin
Not with us. We value life-long learning from contextually appropriate people – which means ALL of our hosts and experts are women with lived experience of rural life and expertise in their chosen field. One day you might be the learner and the next, the teacher – that’s what we love about THE Rural Woman.

No subject off limits.No solution not possible.
Isolation is a superpower
We have spent the past 6 years creating a safe, supportive, nurturing and self-responsible space where rural women can share, learn and grow together. We’ve been through it all together, droughts, floods, fires, a global pandemic and the women who lean into this community – they are the true definition of resilience.

Ready to bloom where you are?
We’re here to bring you all the tools you need to grow and nurture you, your work, idea or business and your community – right where you are, wherever that is! #livelocalgrowglobal.

REBEL WITH A CAUSE
Eventually, I decided that a rural woman blooms best where her heart is, so I gave myself permission to love my rural location and embrace the incredible opportunities to #livelocalgrowglobal.
Since 2015, through THE Rural Woman, I’ve been nurturing and delighting in seeing the seeds I planted back then, to create a space where rural women could reconnect with their most powerful voice and then have a platform for that voice to be amplified. I’ve been humbled and inspired daily at the capacity rural women have for growth and #thriving #healing and #evolving.
I am passionate about dismantling isolation in rural areas and connecting brilliant, entrepreneurial rural women through mentoring, training and community-focused technology.
When I’m not brainstorming new ideas for THE Rural Woman, you can find me spending time with my family and friends, or harvesting veggies from my garden, meditating, reading or running (sparodically…when I have a goal!).
I’m truly one of the lucky ones.
Not only do I get to live and work in one of the most beautiful areas in rural Australia, but I’ve found my life’s purpose and I wish that for you too.
May you bloom where you are,
Rebel
