Hello and welcome. My name is Mary and I'm the host of Prologs, a lifestyle podcast where each episode is like a digital

journal entry detailing whatever it is I'm going through in life at the moment. I talk about my

journey with mental health, relationships, wellness, beauty, personal development, and more.

So join me every Monday morning for a reminder that we're all still figuring out life for the

first time and you are still in the beginning of your personal story. Welcome back to the podcast. In today's episode, I'm interviewing

my friend Gabby. You might know her as Scotland Magic on Instagram and she's also the founder of

the main character club. She's a professional photographer, a small business owner, and another

Edinburgh transplant just like me.

And in today's episode, we talk all things being a long-distance daughter, starting over, the courage to leave situations that you know aren't good for you, the ups and downs of owning your own business, and general life lessons that Gabby has learned along the way.

Her story is so interesting, I find her to be an inspiring individual in my life, so I really hope you enjoyed today's episode. Welcome to the podcast,

And I've just lived my best life in Scotland, essentially.

So that's where the roughest, like, outline of who I am and what I do.

I feel like you're down playing it a little bit.

You moved all the way from Australia to Scotland. I looked that up. That's over 10,000 miles.

It's far. Yep. And what's the time difference? It's like a 12 hour time difference

from I think Perth and then Sydney's like slightly different because I've got family in both.

So yeah, yeah, it's far. It's decent. Yeah. I thought I moved far, but you moved

really, really far. And when she says she has a business or businesses, they are massive and
