International Women’s Day feels different for me this year. I got to experience, first-hand, the collective power of women - and let me tell you, it’s spine-tingling 💪💥!

has created a platform to amplify brands founded by women. To mark International Women’s Day, over 100 female founders gathered at in Kensington for a campaign designed to inspire girls and women to dare to build their own brands – ‘because you can’t be what you can’t see’.

At The Herbtender, our team is almost entirely women. We craft every aspect of our business, from operations to product design, while openly juggling all the things women do, and supporting each other while we do it.

Thirty years ago, a team like ours would have been unusual. Today, we are celebrated, largely thanks to the women who have come before us and have paved the way. Thank you and , for stopping traffic for us!

I have another passion apart from plants and it’s wildlife. More specifically: rhinos 🦏. My happy place is in the peace and stillness of the African bush.

My personal heartbreak is that in my lifetime I have seen the rhino population driven to the brink of extinction by human greed, and some days this almost breaks me (any other neurodivergent sensitive ones will understand).

This I would like to shout out to , who are fighting on the front line protecting rhinos every day.

We support them with our whole hearts, and also with 1% of all sales, so when you buy from us, you’re supporting conservation too.

Out for a walk and suddenly… you start recognising the plants around you 🌿🍄

Rosemary growing wild.

The more time you spend outdoors, the more you realise — nature isn’t separate from us. It’s all around us, quietly thriving.

Next time you’re hiking or wandering through the woods, look a little closer. You might be surprised what you find.

It’s getting real in our house! Revision for A Levels and GCSE’s is hotting up and fuelled by a whole lot of snacking.

It’s hard supporting from the sidelines, but this recipe by nutritionist .and.me is my love language. Mixing in a little focus support couldn’t be easier:

Focus Choc Chip Cookie Dough Balls
1 cup almond butter
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 cup almond flour
1/2 cup 80% dark choc chips/ roughly chopped chocolate
1/2 tsp himalayan salt
1/2 tsp good quality vanilla bean paste
6 / 8 capsules Focus & Clarity

Method:
Place everything into a food processor (or a bowl) besides the choc chips and pulse until combined.
Add the choc chips and pulse once more to combine.
Roll into balls and store in the fridge for up to a week
(if they last that long!)

Makes 6-8 Balls. You’re welcome!

I used to think that energy was something I had or something I was lacking. Nothing a coffee or a pre-workout wouldn’t fix! Until coffee didn’t touch sides anymore and I was exhausted despite a few cups 🫩.

Until I discovered adaptogens and functional mushrooms that sustain me in a whole different way - helping my body make its own energy again, rather than relying on quick fixes.

In fact, I’ve discovered there are so many kinds of energy! Here are four natural solutions to your energy needs:

🌞 Rise & Shine - Morning Vitality
🌿 Uplift & Revitalise - Gentle Recovery from Fatigue
📚 Focus & Clarity - Productive Energy
🏋️‍♂️ Perform & Recover - Training and Endurance

So if you’re always knackered, we’ve got you…
