spring on a winters day

The last few weeks have been so stressful with the first lot of my spring design samples coming from my manufacturer all wrong. It has thrown my timeline and launch of website, but given me the opportunity to refine the collection and assert myself with the people I employ. It has not been easy surrendering my work the strangers to be replicated, but it had to happen one day. The recent turmoil has revealed an unforeseen reconciliation with my twin sister. We have always had an extremely close connection, but our sisterly bickering had hindered the business relationship. We are 25 now and we worry less about our egos, and this showed in a recent peaceful confrontation that has resulted into this sincere respect and love that I have only received out my closest of closet friendships. And as if her already unconditional love and support of me was enough, it has further confirmed my sense of self and worth. The feeling you get from inside your soul that speaks to your body through your stomach, you know, the gut feeling, that your on the right path... insurmountable, as if it is this path, the path that leads you to the source

And through this, our Mum arrived unexpectedly. The last time the 3 of us were together was on our 21st birthday, so it was special - made only more by the fact that Saci works at the Peninsular Hot Springs where we spent 2 glorious days bathing, while the freezing temperatures dropped blissfully unaware around us...

My girls at Splendour in the Grass. The Mini Splendour area was crazy fun. GLOTATTS sponsored the event so that all the little celebrity kidless got their sparkle with tattoos and glitter. Overall what a perfect last day to a hugely successful festival!

Satvik Foods nourishment

I want to share with you my gratitude and joy for the past five years of working alongside my sister, Kat and her husband Moi, at Satvik Foods. As a family-owned business, Satvik Foods has been a creative outlet for me within this mature company of 13 years. I've had the opportunity to be a part of something special, and to reconnect with my roots and heritage through the rituals of preparing and eating food. I have worked plenty with my family, but each is a unique experience. We've had our fair share of disagreements, but we always come together with a shared vision of creating nourishing, Ayurvedic-inspired dishes that are accessible to everyone. I've learned so much from them, not just about food but about business, marketing, and communication. The learning curve has been steep, but it's been worth it. I've learned the importance of patience and perseverance, and how to adapt to changing market trends and consumer preferences. Most importantly, I've red

Sunshine People

RADA CAMPBELL - MOTHER & ENTREPRENEUR, SATVIK FOODS. TELL US A LITTLE ABOUT YOURSELF- WHO YOU ARE, AND WHERE ARE YOU FROM? I am a mother, creative and entrepreneur. I was born into the Hare Krishna religion in Northern NSW and spent most of my childhood running wild with my 8 siblings.
