Women of Wynnum Manly
Women of Wynnum Manly is a fortnightly podcast that dives into the stories behind the women who contribute to the proud sense of community that is a piece of paradise in Brisbane’s bayside. Allana has lived in Wynnum with her husband, dog, cat and (sometimes) granddog since 2016. She fell in love with the stunning sunrises, gets excited by a good bargain in the op shops, and enjoys the easy nature and friendliness of the local people. Feeling like the Wynnum area is in a transition stage, with an eclectic mix of old and new, Allana wants to dig deeper into the incredible women who are part of the community she loves. The Traditional Owners of the Wynnum Manly area are the Quandamooka People. They have lived on the lands and seas surrounding Minjerribah (North Stradbroke Island) for at least 21,000 years.

Season 3, episode 8 - Martene Paterson
I met Martene when was she leading the group training class I was doing at 4 Shore Fitness. She has a fun and warm energy and a lovely Scottish accent.
Martene moved to the Bayside only a few years ago, and thanks the beautiful community for her transition. I always enjoy the classes Martene leads at the gym, but I was extra pleased to know that her special interest is the benefits of training women in peri menopause and menopause stages of life. A special interest of mine also!
I am glad that Martene made the choice to move to the Bayside, as she is a wonderful member of our beautiful community. Enjoy getting to know Martene.
You can find out more about Martene's personal training on Facebook and Instagram at M for fitness.
