This is the second in a series of community podcasts about the people who live in Matua, Tauranga, New Zealand. The idea is to highlight and show case the diverse people and personalities of the community. To meet and explore who they are and what they do.
A natural therapist, Kate Sturmey based in Tauranga, New Zealand shares how buying a small, values-led brand turned into a community-powered, low-waste business that replaces harsh cleaners with handmade, essential-oil products. We talk circular economy in the driveway, sleep rituals for neurodivergent kids and honest lessons from building a sustainable range.
• Moving from Reiki and natural therapies into a product business
• Buying Second Nature Botanicals and scaling with purpose
• Handmade, essential-oil formulas for home and body
• Community recycling bins and refill discounts
• What harsh cleaners do to waterways and skin
• Practical DIY with citrus peels and herbs
• Navigating anxiety, chemical overload, and healing
• Meditation, bush walks, and everyday grounding
• Research, point of difference, and authentic storytelling
