    Lockdown brought two strangers together to launch Australia's first just add water cleaning products. Sian from Pleasant State shares how crowdfunding helped them launch.

    Lockdown brought two strangers together to launch Australia's first just add water cleaning products. Sian from Pleasant State shares how crowdfunding helped them launch.

    Welcome to episode 11. Chatting all things crowdfunding and sustainable safe cleaning with Pleasant State's Co-Founder and Head Of Marketing Sian.



    In 2019, Co-Founder Ami was dealing with chronic headaches. After consulting with healthcare professionals, she began working to remove plastics and nasty chemicals from her home. However, when it came to cleaning products, she couldn’t find any healthy, zero-waste, and effective solutions in Australia. We quickly realized that traditional cleaning products and their plastic packaging are major contributors to indoor air pollution and are making Australians sick. So, we did something about it!



    The Team at Pleasant State have used 2 different crowdfunding bodies to build and bootstrap their brand. In the three years since they began shipping their revolutionary products, PS Team went from Ami’s garage to a Sunny Coast warehouse, and now Pleasant State products can be found in over 20,000 homes.

    In the depths of pregnancy searching for a REAL prenatal supplement a business was birthed - Sheridan Austin from Foraged For You

    In the depths of pregnancy searching for a REAL prenatal supplement a business was birthed - Sheridan Austin from Foraged For You

    Welcome to episode 9. Sharing how the search for a REAL food prenatal supplement led Sheridan (a qualified holistic Nutritionist and (GAPS) practitioner) to create an all-in-one certified organic, probiotic and real food supplement blend of some of the world's most nutrient-dense and fermented foods. 



    We want to support you as much as we can with required nutrients in their original form, especially those journeying before, during and after pregnancy.



    Foraged For You was founded in May of 2020 with the goal of wanting to support others with required nutrients in their original form, especially those journeying before, during and after pregnancy.



    As a qualified Nutritionist and Gut and Psychology Syndrome Practitioner, Sheridan spent many years consulting, developing recipes, delivering seminars, workshops and many other services in the nutrition and health space. During this time Sheridan became particularly passionate about nourishment for herself and her family.



    “In 2017 I became pregnant with my precious little boy Malakai. Throughout my pregnancy, I became overwhelmingly passionate about how to nourish my growing baby and myself through such a physically demanding time. Through my years of learning, I knew that nutrients require an abundance of other vitamins, minerals, co-factors and move around it in order to do their job - so how could one synthetic prenatal supplement with a small number of nutrients, without their other nutrients attached, achieve this? I went through my own pregnancy taking an array of food-based supplements, spending hundreds of dollars, to receive the array of nutrients required during pregnancy.



    I decided I wanted to create an all-in-one. And after two years of very in-depth research and trialling, the birth of my second baby occurred! - The Mothers Blend"

    How to drink margaritas for a full-time job | turning passion into a fun business with Jessie and Tommy from AZTECA Margarita

    Welcome to episode 8. Sharing how to follow the universe and let its plan unfold as it should. AZTECA Taqueria started on Sydney's Northern Beaches as a taco stall at a local market, which became Sydney's most popular Mexican catering. But then came Covid which altered Jessie and Tommy to turn to at-home Margarita mixes.

    Taqueria - Mexican catering was replaced with Margarita and AZTECA 2.0 was born. Today, AZTECA Margarita is proudly made in Billinudgel using no shit ingredients, no sugar, no preservatives, no colours. 



    For meaningful in my opinion, the best Margarita mix on the market check out
