Former Auckland-based journalist Rebecca Hayter turned her back on the profession when she bought a lifestyle block in Golden Bay and started afresh.
In her book High Heels and Gumboots: A city girl and a lot to learn, she candidly tells of her adaptation to a new way of life — where she struggled but ultimately developed new skills and gained confidence.
Rebecca joins Jim to relay some of those often hilarious and heart-warming tales.
