2022
In the year 2022, Plante took on the wilds of South Africa on “Naked and Afraid” – she pushed through hunger, harsh conditions, and injury – like a fishhook stuck in her thumb. Despite wild animals, the heat, and the lack of clothes, she stayed calm – she says that it was not new to her. An Air Force member and a veteran SERE specialist, Plante had long prepared for tough challenges like this.
Plante was 1st discovered on Instagram – she shared her love for the outdoors. In her episode, she started with a partner named Rebel – but when Rebel got sick and had to leave, Plante teamed up with 2 men, Rusty and Jared. Together, the group avoided dangerous crocodiles, hunted turtles, and pushed through exhaustion to make it to day 21. Plante lost 13 pounds during the survival test but did not back down. She says that finishing the challenge meant everything to her and proved that women can be just as strong. After returning home, she had to recover physically and adjust to modern life again. However, even with those challenges, she says that she is ready for more.
2023
In the year 2023, Plante returned to “Naked and Afraid” – but this time she took on the challenge alone in the Karoo High Desert of South Africa for the spinoff “Naked and Afraid: Solo”. With no clothes and freezing temperatures at night, she relied on wildebeest pelt and fishing kit to survive the harsh winter conditions. Plante used part of the pelt to make basic clothing and stayed focused despite the cold – she says that the experience triggered strong flashbacks even after returning home.
Plante was 1st noticed by the show’s casting team through her Instagram posts. She described the 21-day experience as a refreshing break from the fast-paced -often overwhelming nature of modern life. While she appreciates the comforts of home, she says that she feels more at peace in nature – she deals with immediate survival needs rather than the chaos of everyday society.
Plante spent 21 tough days alone in Karoo High Desert for “Naked and Afraid: Solo”. With no partner this time, she caught catfish using her fishing kit and even ate grubs – she said that it tasted buttery after boiling. She used to stay busy to fight boredom and use an animal pelt to make clothes and shoes. Nights were freezing and she says that she had to stay up feeding the fire just to keep warm. Plante says that she prefers having a partner on these challenges – but still pushed through. This was her 2nd solo survival challenge and her 3rd time on the show.
Business | Schooling
Outside of the show, Plante runs a property maintenance business and prefers to invest in life experiences over material things. From her perspective, she says that too many people get stuck in routines they do not enjoy. Her advice to anyone feeling stuck is to start small and keep moving. “We’re all a bit messy,” she said, “but just take the 1st step.” According to Seacoastonline, Plante plans to go back to school to study marine systems or farming.
