193: Connection, Kindness and Community with Tanya Boots, Founder of Inspirational Tea Co.
Description
I’m honoured to welcome Tanya Boots to The Debra Shepherd Podcast this week. Tanya is the Founder of Inspirational Tea Co., a Gold Coast–based tea gifting brand that turns everyday tea breaks into moments of inspiration. After 15 years in FMCG as a Category Manager, Tanya swapped spreadsheets for teabags, creating premium whole-leaf teas with motivational quotes on every tag. Beyond the cup, Tanya has built a warm community of tea lovers who connect through shared rituals, events, and micro-gifting moments. Tanya’s mission is to inspire busy women to pause, connect, and feel supported — one cup at a time.
In this episode, Tanya shares her business story. We talk about kindness, giving back, connection, community, personal branding and business.
