SUPPORTING FAMILIES TO STAY CONNECTED, EVEN WHEN A PARENT WORKS AWAY

Books, community, and expert guidance from a psychologist who lives this life too.

Larissa Elliott, psychologist and mum whose partner works away

MEET LARISSA

I'm Larissa Elliott, a registered psychologist, a mum of two girls, and a FIFO wife of over 8 years. My husband works offshore in Western Australia on 4-week swings, while we live on the east coast.

FIFO life isn't for the faint-hearted. The isolation, the endless solo-parenting decisions. I know it intimately, both professionally and personally. That's why I created Under The Same Sun.
