In this heartwarming episode of "Couple Goals," hosts Amy Sheppard and Lachlan Stuart sit down with the dynamic duo, Billie-Jo Porter and Kyle Skalicky. From the snowy slopes of Revelstoke, BC, to the sun-kissed shores of Australia, their love story is as adventurous as it is inspiring.

Billie-Jo, a rising star in the country music scene, shares her journey from being a small-town girl to a top ten grand finalist in the prestigious Toyota Star Maker Competition. She talks about her passion for songwriting, her collaborations with emerging country artists, and the joy she finds in performing.

He talks about his successful plumbing company in Coffs Harbour, 'Jetty Plumbing,' and how he has built a positive work culture that includes giving employees their birthdays off.

The couple also shares their adventurous love story, which began in Canada and took them on a 9-month road trip through the USA to Central America, all in a hatchback with a tent and some rock climbing gear. They talk about their decision to move to Australia in 2013 and how they've built their life together since then.

Kyle also shares his recent journey into music, having taken up the piano two years ago with the goal of joining Billie-Jo on her Facebook Live Streams. He talks about the joy he's found in learning to play and the excitement of playing his first couple of live shows.
