Fresh from her unexpected victory on Alone Australia, Gina Cheek shared her unique survival strategies and transformative experiences with Deborah Knight.

Contestant Gina Cheek proved doubters wrong, winning Alone Australia after a remarkable 67-day stay in the Tasmanian wilderness.

Using unconventional survival gear like a possum coat and a rock of salt, Gina demonstrated how embracing wild nature, rather than conquering it, leads to success.

Gina also expressed her pleasure at becoming a role model, particularly for young girls. “If that helps other people be happier in their skin and more inspired to be themselves, then I’ve already won.”
