In this episode of Wait, You Do What?, host Mel Loy explores a hobby that is definitely a far cry from the corporate world.

Meet Karen (or Kaz), an executive assistant and mother of three who recently discovered that she is a total natural with a rifle.

What started as a mission to ensure firearm safety in her home turned into an "exhilarating and thrilling" obsession. Karen breaks down the stereotypes of the shooting range, revealing it’s less about "action movie" chaos and more about "yoga-like" focus and OCD-friendly precision.

In this episode, we’re talking:

• The Accidental Sharpshooter: How a 50-year-old "lady with no real interests" found her jam.
• Safety First (Always): Why Karen, a self-proclaimed stickler for rules, feels this is the safest sport out there.
• The "Zen" of the Range: Forget the noise—Karen explains the breathing, the rhythm, and the "disconnecting" from the daily grind.
• Chickens vs. Turkeys: A look at "Silhouettes" and why those tiny metal turkeys are the ultimate nemesis.
• Blinging Out the Scope: How Karen and her friends are bringing inclusion, community, and even a little bit of "bling" to the regional Queensland shooting scene.

Mel Loy is a storyteller, community enthusiast, and host of this insightful exploration into the power of individual passions. She’s dedicated to highlighting stories that connect people and inspire action.
