Episode 8 - Hidden Sydney

For our final episode, we’re back where we started, in Sydney, and this time it’s all about hidden gems - showcasing some amazing wellness experiences in and around the city that you might not know about.

Our host, seven-time world surfing champion and national icon, Layne Beachley, meets our everyday Australian, Kim, a 65 year old mum, grandma and nurse.

This frontline health worker spends her days guiding others through some of their hardest moments, and we get to take her on a wellness break so she can give some of that care back to herself.

Watch and stream Episode 8, free on 10, on Saturday, 6 December 2025!

As part of Well Traveller TV Season 2, we are giving away more than $30,000 worth of wellness getaways!
