In this week's episode our host Bianca Foley is chatting all about Regenerative farming and how it is helping to accelerate the beauty industry to new heights!


Did you know that regenerative farming can lead to a 26% increase in profitability for farmers while reducing carbon emissions? It's like a win-win for the planet and our pockets! We will look a bit more at these numbers and find out how beauty brands are hopping on the regenerative bandwagon, sourcing ingredients responsibly, and supporting initiatives that promote biodiversity and soil health.


Today's guests:

Tanya Hawkes began her career working in nature conservation and environmental education. Her interest in the botanical world soon led her to honeybees and the art of beekeeping. Over many decades she researched and worked with botanical and bee ingredients, using their healing properties for her reactive skin. In 2013, along with her daughter Esme, an Oxford Biology graduate turned ecologist and skincare aficionado; Tanya launched Therapi - meaning 'healing through the bee' - a natural and certified organic skincare range which harnesses the therapeutic properties of honey and propolis alongside time-honoured plant ingredients to transform skin and planet.
