Mark Pelley aka The Snake Hunter is hands down one of the most remarkable men I’ve ever met, with an incredible story and an impressive knack for telling a story. All that before we even get to the fact that he catches venomous snakes for a living.

This episode is about so much more than just Mark’s journey into becoming ‘The Snake Hunter’, it’s about courage, integrity, determination and most of all honesty, with ourselves as much as with one another.

We cover:

* Urban Snakes (I snuck in the obligatory trouser snake joke)

* Marks early years and his introduction to catching snakes

* How single fatherhood and desperate times lead to desperate measures and eventually “snake-money”

* The snake bite and overdose that nearly ended his life twice

* The deadly venom of a Tiger Snake unpacked

* The importance of being present

* Ice baths, cold showers and breathe work

* Training dogs to avoid deadly snakes

* How there’s more than meets the eye when it comes to who we think are just regular everyday people

* Mark’s passion for learning; from skills to showing genuine interest in people

* A family affair; how Mark trained his dog to help catch snakes

* Ice bath therapy and how having nowhere to hide from the ice trains us to face our greatest fears and more

Annamaria Stella is a friend with a career in Realestate and was recognised as Sales Agent of the year for Melbourne 2025. In this episode, we break into an epic D&M, reveal some inner struggles and share where we find our strength to keep going through tough times.

This isn’t just another episode - this is two friends, opening up, knowing full well that we might be judged by others for the things we open up about, but doing it anyway.

These days we have to invent things like R U Okay day as an obligatory way of checking in with each other, contriving a safe space for people to opening up to people who don’t really want to hear what they have to say, cos they’ve got things going on of their own. When did we become so disconnected?

In this episode, Annamaria and I open up, the way people should feel they can on a daily basis. It’s raw, it’s honest and it’s unapologetic.
