Greer Paterson
Today on the Black Heels and Tractor Wheels Podcast we have a great chat with Greer Paterson ✨ Greer lives on the Chatham Islands and provides us with an outlook of how truly unique and different Island life is. She talks us through the first moment she landed on the Chatham Islands, having never heard of it, or been there before she arrived. Her original plans changed and 6 years in, she is still on the Island 🏝 Greer really opens our eyes to how remote life is on the Island. We discuss some examples of seemingly ordinary activities like grocery shopping and planning for a birth take on a whole new meaning. We usually speak about rural and remote living, but this is really next level 🙌 Greer is so candid with her personal story and thoughtfully gives her perspective on how to overcome challenges and to develop a resilient mindset 🩷 See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
