Natalie's Journey to Heartland Ranch

Natalie grew up on the Gold Coast and fell in love with horses at the age of 10, when she began riding her first pony. From that moment on, horses became her passion. She spent her youth riding and competing, with horses at the very heart of her world.

At 21, Natalie set off on a backpacking adventure to the USA and also worked as a flight attendant, embracing a life of travel and exploration. During her time abroad, she discovered yoga and became a certified yoga teacher in 2001. Over the years, she opened and operated four successful hot yoga studios. After the home births of her three children, Natalie found a new calling—teaching kids' yoga and sharing mindfulness and movement with young hearts.

Eventually, she returned home to Australia, where she bought a pony property and raised her children surrounded by the magic of horses and nature.

In 2021, life took a new turn. Following a divorce, Natalie met her soulmate, Scott. Together, they blended their families and now raise six beautiful children. United by their love of family, animals, and the outdoors—camping, fishing, and boating—Heartland Ranch was born.

Heartland Ranch is more than just a property—it’s a dream brought to life. With the support of Scott, Natalie created it to inspire kids to play outside, connect with animals, and rediscover the joy of simple, grounded living.
