In this deeply moving second instalment of Terri’s story, we pick up after her whirlwind love story with Steve Irwin. Terri reflects on their final family research trip and the moment she received the call that would split her life in two.

Terri tells us what happened in the water that fateful day and shares how she navigated overwhelming grief while raising two young children, the challenges of being thrust into an international media storm, and the quiet ways she has kept Steve close.

In this first part of our two-episode conversation, Terri Irwin takes us back to where it all began. Terri tells the story of visiting Australia for the first time and locking eyes with a young wildlife warrior. From their first conversation to the croc-catching adventures, and how a feral pig made her realise they were a perfect match. If you’ve ever wondered what real “love at first sight” sounds like — this is it.

In our first conversation, we sit down with Sunshine Coast Mayor Rosanna Natoli, a well-known face from her years as a television journalist, weather presenter, and university lecturer, now leading the community she’s long called home.

Rosanna reflects on the key decisions that led her from the newsroom to the mayoral office, what she’s learned about leadership, and her hopes for the Sunshine Coast’s future. From managing growth and protecting the region’s character to building connection and community, this episode offers a thoughtful look at what it means to lead with purpose on the Coast.
