In this episode, host Roz White chats with Ami Bateman, co-founder of Pleasant State, a brand focused on sustainable cleaning products. They discuss the importance of local sourcing and environmental consciousness.

Amy shares the story behind Pleasant State, Australia’s first concentrated cleaning bars that dissolve in tap water to make healthy, plant-based, and zero-waste cleaning solutions - that actually work! The goal being to reduce plastic waste globally and remove harsh chemicals from within family homes. They also explore the challenges and successes of launching during the COVID-19 pandemic and the support from the local community, while also sharing their plans for growth and getting their products into more homes.

The episode emphasises the impact of mindful consumer behaviour and small, intentional changes on sustainability.
