Creating a Global Brand with Lush Co-Founder Rowena Bird
Description
In this episode, Sienna tells her dad Ben she wants to grow up and start her own beauty brand — just like Rowena Bird from Lush.

Sienna and Ben chat with Rowena about:
-
What she was like as a kid and how she got into beauty
-
Starting out as a beauty therapist and working with The Body Shop
-
Selling products from the boot of her car and how the bath bomb was born in a garden shed
-
The good bits, the hard bits, and the “what are we doing?” moments of building Lush from scratch
-
Whether the famous “secret Lush master plan” is actually real 👀
-
Big mistakes, bouncing back from setbacks, and random career twists like becoming a balloon pilot
-
Skincare and confidence tips for teens
-
How to grow a global brand without losing what matters
-
What advice she’d give young people who want to build something of their own
-
And what she’d tell her younger self
