South Gippsland: Our People

Jackie Newman moved to South Gippsland in search of a 'Sea Change', and hasn't looked back.

Show Notes

Many people move to South Gippsland to make a ‘sea change’, and that’s certainly true of Jackie. Her and her family moved to South Gippsland from Central Victoria, with the intention of trying it out for a few years before maybe moving back. However, that doesn’t seem to be happening anytime soon…

Jackie tells us her story of what’s keeping her and her family in South Gippsland. She tells us her experience of living and working in South Gippsland, the story of establishing her business and working remotely for clients across the state, and how her husband ended up being recruited for the local footy team less than 24 hours after arriving in town…
