My beautiful friends over @baeobaby are making the most divine certified organic beauty products for both Mama and her babies. Derived from sweet smelling essential oils, they really are of the highest and most pure quality. I lather it all over my kiddies and have seen such a rapid healing in Poets nappy rash since getting my new tin of Bare Booty. Thank you @swrightolsen and @annaaschafer for all your intentional work to create a beauty line that we can trust and rely on for ourselves and our children ?? link to website in Bio. P.s my kids LOVE the cute Baeo bear, having to get a few more haha!

A year ago we finished filming @ridelikeagirlmovie it was a transformational experience for me. This is me with the man they call Peter Pony, he trained me and made me feel competent being with these majestic animals ? I just saw the movie for the first time a few days ago and I’m just so moved by it. Michelle’s story will be incredibly empowering for young women all over the world, all the immense hurdles she faced, what she had to overcome and the ultimate dream she reached, it’s truly mind blowing. It teaches us that no goal is unreachable, you just have to really believe you can do it and then throw your everything in to it. Do not give up on your dreams. Well done @rachelgriffithsofficial for making one of the most important movies I’ve ever seen, I can’t believe I was lucky enough to be the one to play this remarkable woman. @markwebber and I cried from the start to the end! For real. Absolute goosebumps. In cinemas September 26th @michellejpayne_@transmissionfilms #ridelikeagirl#michellepayne

A huge shout out to @LexusofAdelaide for partnering with me. It’s been so helpful to us as a family to be able to drive this lovely car. It brought our baby girl home from the birth centre, took us to all the amazing Adelaide adventures we had with the kids and became our old trusty navigating the windy streets of the Adelaide Hills in the rain with sleeping kiddies in the back. See you “Alexis”, thanks for keeping us safe! Grateful ? Now for some LA sunshine…. #lexusofadelaide#lexusux

In 2017 I had the idea to rescue some sheep from slaughter. I drove with my mum & 3 kids down to my local petrol station, hired a trailer, figured out how to hook it up & drove hours to a farmers property with sheep that were going off to market to be killed for meat. I convinced the farmer to let me buy them for a crazy amount of money, put them in the trailer, drove all the way home and cried happy tears for them as we released them onto my property where the mama & her two grown up boys are now living happily and free, we see them grazing on our grass every day. There are certain vegans out there who have been bashing me because of a hugely misleading article written by the Daily Mail about me. Usually I don’t care about junk that gets written about me, but because it’s about animals, I now care. It was taken from a very brief radio interview I did, funnily enough I was there to promote my vegan nutritional shake @lovewell.earth.Having been given tons of shit before in the past for ‘raising my children vegan’, I was asked by the hosts about that aspect of my life. The radio interviewers were joking around with me & my comments about lying to my son weren’t meant to be taken literally. I didn’t have enough air time to give context to the story and with the funny banter they quickly moved on to the next topic before I could actually clarify what I meant. So here is my clarification for those of you taking the time to be cruel to me online. I haven’t eaten meat in years, I’m transitioning back into veganism after finding out that my baby has dairy allergies. My husband, myself & sons Bodhi & Forest eat things with milk & cheese in it on the rare occasion. For Bodhi these occasions are at birthday parties where the cake has milk/butter in it. Bodhi is 5 and doesn’t quite understand what the word vegan actually means, he enjoys eating milk chocolate and/or cake sometimes but he calls himself “vegan” to be just like his big brother Isaac. Bodhi thinks being a “vegetarian” means you eat meat. So I ask the parents at the parties just to say “it’s vegan” to save Bodhi’s tears and because he just wants to make sure there’s no meat in it (cont’d in comments)

This piece of jewellery is HEAVEN. It took my breath away when I opened it. Created especially for me by the glorious team of folks @wishartjewellersglenelg they designed it, using the most stunning opal I’ve ever laid eyes on and surrounded it by the names of my children. It reminds me of the sun and the colours change every time I look at it. Dan and his team create individualised pieces for anyone around the world, please consider working with them, I just think there’s something magic about what they’re doing. So grateful ?? #nevertakingthisoff #crescentopal#namependant #ethicaljewellery#wishartjewellers#wishartwishlist#handmadejewellery

Indigenous and Torres Strait Islander children are three times less likely to meet the national minimum standard for reading and writing, which seems incredibly unfair considering the opportunities afforded to those with even basic literacy skills. Every single day I read and write; for work, for knowledge, with my children, or even just to know I’m walking in to the right toilet! Literacy can shape us into great authors or researchers, creatives or academics; literacy is everywhere. The t-shirt that I’m wearing was designed by Vik & Woods and from May 20th until June 10th, David Jones is donating ALL profits to @alnf_, to help close the Indigenous literacy gap. Literacy IS freedom!! Please visit link in my bio. #DJsxALNF#LiteracyisFreedom #NRW2019
