Terressa Shandley Kollat, a TikTok star, has always had a deep connection to the ocean. Growing up in various remote locations in New Zealand, she learned traditional Māori and Irish methods of gathering food from the land and sea. After leaving her high-paying job in the wool industry, Kollat returned home to give her son a similar childhood. She started taking others on hunting and fishing trips, which led to transformative experiences for her guests. Kollat began sharing videos of her trips on TikTok, gaining a large following and using her platform to promote sustainable harvesting practices. Despite her fame, she remains grounded and continues to prioritize her connection to nature. [Extracted from the article] |
