This week on Big Lap Chats, I’m joined by Tara from Dreamer RV—who shares how a desire for more family time sparked a bold decision to hit the road, and how that journey unexpectedly led to launching a thriving caravan bedding business.
Tara’s Big Lap story is packed with relatable moments, from the chaos of packing up with young kids to navigating life (and business) from a caravan.
We chat about the juggle of working remotely, what it’s really like living full-time in close quarters, and the surprising lessons they’ve learned along the way.
You’ll also hear how Dreamer RV was born from a simple frustration shared by thousands of travellers and how Tara grew it into a successful Aussie product that’s helping Lappers everywhere sleep better on the road.
If you’ve ever wondered what it takes to travel long-term as a family, run a business from the van, or make the leap into big lap life travelling australia, this one’s for you.
And listen in to the end, Tara’s offering a special discount for Big Lap Chats listeners!

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
