Why a Fashion Student Moved to the Rainforest Alone, Then Went Viral on YouTube

This week, Anastasia Vanderbyl, one half of the YouTube channel Mother The Mountain Farm, takes us behind the scenes of her life as a regenerative farmer and artist in Byron Bay. Alongside her sister Julia, Anastasia has built a thriving online community with nearly 250 million views, sharing their journey of creativity and sustainability on their family farm. In this honest conversation, Anastasia opens up about the challenges of taking over the farm after her father’s sudden passing, the emotional toll it’s taken, and the hope that drives her forward. We explore themes of slow living, the realities of farming, and the importance of staying authentic when sharing our lives online.
