My Way on Channel 9 Queensland and 9Now S11E1 – Travel to Australia’s top spots and meet incredible people changing the game of life in the new series of My Way, premiering this Sunday at 5.30pm on Channel 9 and 9Now.
My Way continues its heart-led storytelling approach, spotlighting real people, their passion projects, and the pockets of paradise they call home. In an exciting new season, viewers will journey from the dirt road to the inner city, through farmlands, and the heart of the outback, discovering something for everyone right in their own backyard. While their locale is always breathtaking, it’s the individuals themselves at the heart of each episode who show that purpose and place go hand in hand.
The first episode begins on the sunlit shores of the Gold Coast, where Stuart Smith carves out more than surfboards. He is one of Australia’s only custom shapers, and his unique boards are a familiar sight at our beaches. Stuart’s love of surfing started early, and after breaking a few boards he decided to make his own. So Stuart Surf was born, becoming a mainstay in boardriding culture, with Stuart’s devotion to the waves and the community surfing alongside him.
For Josh Alder, adventure runs in the family. As the second generation behind Australian Sunset Safaris, he grew up with the Queensland coastline as his playground.
Passionate for immersive, eco-conscious travel, Josh is a leader in sustainable tourism. From snorkelling in crystal waters to racing down steep sand dunes, each of his tours is a love letter to the natural beauty of destinations like K’gari, the Great Barrier Reef and Moreton Island that lives on in the memory of his safari-goers.
For Chris de Klerk, the edges of a picture frame are where the stories begin. A former lawyer who migrated from South Africa in 2003, Chris traded in courtrooms for creativity, opening Frames on Farrant in Brisbane and never looking back. For 17 years he’s been preserving memories, protecting history, and celebrating artworks through his picture frames. This exceptional craftsman set up both a business and a network of art lovers he continues to connect with, one beautiful frame at a time.
In the heart of Ipswich, a humble olive grove has blossomed into Watercress Creek, a thriving farm producing olive oil, Tahitian lime cordial and other product lines for Bernie Mahon.
Since planting the first trees with his late wife in 1998, Bernie has poured love into every corner of their property. Today the farm is much more than a source of fresh produce – it’s a haven of serenity and joyfulness that peaks with the annual Watercress Creek Olive Festival, a celebration of food, farming and community.
Whether it’s shaping surfboards, framing memories, tending the land or guiding travellers through paradise, each story on My Way is an inspirational reminder that if you choose to work at what you love, it will never really feel like work at all.
Don’t miss the season premiere of My Way this Sunday at 5.30pm on Channel 9 and 9Now.
