FIFO life isn’t just about the long shifts and the roster – it’s about how those choices ripple through our relationships, families, and personal lives. In this episode, I sit down with my partner, Jayden, to have an open and honest conversation about what it really takes to keep a relationship strong while working FIFO together.
We talk about the pressures, the sacrifices, and the unspoken mental load that comes with distance, different rosters, and trying to balance work with love and connection. From the moments that test you to the strategies that help you stay grounded; this is a real insight into navigating relationships in the mining industry.
Whether you’re FIFO yourself, supporting someone who is, or just curious about what life looks like behind the scenes, this episode shines a light on both the challenges and the deep rewards of building a partnership in this lifestyle.
