Yin and Yang: How do you balance work and family?
Having a balanced family/work life is so important, but with a job, running a small business and four young children, things can get challenging at the best of times. If there is one thing I have learnt on my journey, it’s that if we take care of the small things, everything else will fall into place, so that is just what I do. I work, work hard and take care of my babies and spend as much quality time as I can with them. Quality family time for us looks like walks and dinner on the beach, movie nights and hanging at home with lots of messy play.
The drive: What challenges have you overcome?
Overcoming financial barriers has proven to be a challenge, but that will not define potential or purpose. Here at Global Hemp NZ, we have set out on a mission to showcase to the people of Aotearoa the exceptional hemp products currently available around the world, how they differ from mainstream products, and the amazing companies behind the products, who are all making positive changes in their homeland all thanks to hemp. We currently have available the world’s first waterproof hemp shoes, the world’s first hemp eyewear and world-class women’s hemp apparel, with exciting and new products on the horizon.
Hopes and dreams: What next?
The long-term goal is to create a retail space that provides a unique, interactive look at everything that is hemp. We are so conscious of the carbon footprint of importing our products that a tree for planting comes with every order. Yes, our team will go and plant a tree for every order. Knowledge is power, and at Global Hemp NZ, we hope to empower you with valuable knowledge, and at the same time, arm you with products that go hand in hand with that power! So you can continue to spread the good news!
