Have you ever felt like you missed the opportunity to chase your big life dream? Perhaps you feel like you're 'too old' now or the juggle of farming life or kids has made it impossible?

This episode is about proving those beliefs wrong.  We meet two women who are building two creative careers, while living rurally and raising children.

* Jasmine Mansbridge -  Artist based in Hamilton, VIC.  Jasmine is known for her striking geometric-style paintings, murals and sculptures. She now showcases her work all over Australia and overseas. Jasmine is also the mother of five and shares how she built a dream career over time, that she can support her family with.

*Maggie Hartley aka Soulty Music- Singer and songwriter,  based in Hamilton, VIC. Maggie started releasing and performing her music just a few years ago (as a 30-something mother of three!). She shares how she thinks of music hooks while playing lego with her kids and how she found the courage to put herself forward for local music gigs.

Jasmine and Maggie are at different stages of their 'big dream' journey - but both offer some practical advice and even 'hard truths'. Pursuing your dream rarely ever easy - but it's incredibly rewarding.
