At first glance it's safe to say we all gush a little over the life Courtney has cultivated for her family in Byron Bay, Australia. It's the picture many of us would all paint for our lives if the stars aligned, but her life is no accident, along with her husband, they have been thoughtful to make choices and live the life that suits them best.
