Meet Kate and Catherine, the voices behind the podcast.
Sydney media mavens Kate Mather and Catherine Shields are the ultimate "sea-change" success story.
Trading city hustle for coastal strategy, they’ve spent years professionalizing the region’s visitor economy through two distinct, powerful lenses:
-
Kate Mather: Leveraging her deep marketing roots, Kate consults across the industry, helping tourism brands find their voice and scale their impact.
-
Catherine Shields: With 25 years as a host and a track record on local and state boards, she now brings a regional voice to the national stage as an industry board director.
Together, they bridge the gap between "boots on the ground" hospitality and high-level policy, proving that smaller short stays can be world-class destinations.
