Finding Her Way Back: Tracee Hutchison on Legacy, Music & the Peninsula

This week on HER Peninsula, Sophie sits down with photographer Sally Goodall to talk about the journey behind the lens, from early career hustle to working with big brands, and everything in between.

Sally shares how she got her start in photography, the moments that helped her break into bigger opportunities, and what it really takes to build a creative career. We dive into the world of wedding photography, the pressure, the pace, and the steep learning curve that comes with capturing once-in- a-lifetime moments.

Now based on the Mornington Peninsula, Sally reflects on the lifestyle shift and why it feels so much like home, drawing parallels to her roots in New Zealand, from the landscapes to the slower pace and strong sense of community.

It’s an honest, inspiring conversation about backing yourself, evolving creatively, and finding where you truly belong.

Living Loud, Loving Hard & Feeling Good with Alex Fevola

In this episode of HER Peninsula, we sit down with Erin Summers from Little Pier Olive Oil, whose journey to the Mornington Peninsula is a story of change, courage, and connection. What began as a move away from the familiar has evolved into a deeply rooted life on the land, where Erin has embraced the challenges and rewards of farming in a way that feels both intentional and community-driven.

As she shares her experience stepping into the world of olive growing, Erin offers an honest insight into what it means to learn the land from the ground up, the unpredictability, the resilience required, and the quiet satisfaction that comes with it.

At the heart of her story is the creation of a community olive oil project, we also explore the lesser-known idea of “fox peppering” a property, and how caring for the land often means understanding and working alongside nature in unexpected ways.

This is a story about starting again, trusting the process, and discovering that the most meaningful things are often the ones we grow together.
