Throwback: Olympic Gold medalist turned macadamia farmer Giaan Rooney

from Motherland Australia · host Stephanie Trethewey

This week, we're throwing back to one of our most popular episodes of 2022. Olympic gold medalist Giaan Rooney shocked the swimming world when she retired at just 23, and she hasn't swum a lap since. Her professional career both in and out of the pool has been widely publicised, but her personal life including her motherhood journey and her recent move to the land is something I'm very excited to share with you. Giaan is married to a fifth generation cattle farmer, but the couple recently make a bold move buying a macadamia farm, and they're have a real crack! This is her story.https://www.instagram.com/motherlandaustralia
