‘You treat each other as your date, rather than just expecting them to always be there,’ Shaynna told the publication. 

She continued: ‘When you catch up, you just make sure that you’re present. You make sure that you’re always there with each other and always touch base.’ 

According to New Idea, Shaynna met the landscape gardener-turned-personal trainer at a ‘bar in Melbourne.’

Just last month, Shaynna unveiled the secrets to her career success, which includes embarrassing her children.

Shaynna said that when she first applied to be part of Foxtel’s Lifestyle production alongside Andrew Winter and Charlie Albone 11 years ago, her kids begged her not to embarrass them on television.

‘The whole time my son just kept saying ‘mum, just don’t embarrass me,’ and I just thought ‘that’s every parent’s revenge, isn’t it?’ The talented interior designer shared.

After separating from her children’s father while they were young, the presenter shared that reinventing herself and starting her flourishing interior business, Blank Canvas, helped her thrive and succeed.

Admitting that raising her children as a single parent had its difficulties, she said she channeled her frustrations into a will to succeed.

‘I never travelled when I was younger, so being able to sink your teeth into projects that take you all around the country, now they’re taking me all around the world, it’s an adventure,’ she shared.

Following her mother’s death from a torturous demise with Alzheimer’s disease, the go-getter turned the tragic personal experience into a positive one.

Creating a wellness centre in the Greek Islands, the jet-setter founded the concept on the premise of creating a positive environment for those suffering and their families alike, while simultaneously embracing her inner travel bug.

With her positive attitude placing first and foremost, deriving beneficial concepts to help others and utilising her passions have proved to be the secret to Shaynna’s glistening career success.
