| 6/24/26 | ![]() From Primary School Teacher To New World Supermarket Success | Have you ever thought about quitting your secure day job to become your own boss? This week, I yarn with Allie Hemmings, the former primary school teacher who did exactly that. Allie created ButterLuxe Co and won the 2025 New World Emerge startup award. After discovering her son had a nut allergy, Allie set out to create a delicious, nut-free alternative. Through plenty of kitchen trials and sheer determination, Oaty Butter was born. Allie shares her open and honest journey as a neurodivergent founder, explaining how her ability to hyperfocus helped her master the complex science of food technology and commercial manufacturing. She shares how she built a nut-free oaty spread for her son and what it takes to get onto supermarket shelves. This episode was brought to you by New World Emerge. New World Emerge is a national initiative, backed by Foodstuffs, to support new and emerging suppliers onto supermarket shelves.

| 6/14/26 | ![]() Radio Star Ash London: Women Supporting Women, How Therapy Changed Her Life, And Celebrating Her Milestone Birthday | Ash London is an Australian broadcaster who now calls New Zealand home, and works at The Edge Radio Station, on a show that is literally her name - that’s how good she is. Not only is she good, the talented broadcaster talks about why she sees it as her duty to protect the radio industry for future generations, making sure she helps the young women who will eventually replace her. How refreshing is that?! Ash talks about losing her dad at a young age, and why therapy has been a huge part of her life, learning to hold onto grief and joy at the same time. And, being daughter of an immigrant, Ash uses her platform to spread awareness and discuss injustices in the world. Learn more about your ad choices.
