Ep 35 - The Founder of Soak Society On Transforming Your Mind

Natalie Thorogood
From an early age, Natalie Thorogood has always exhibited signs of a strong entrepreneurial mindset. Her passionate desire to create and sell products inspired her to start many side projects and even launch her own fashion label at just sixteen years old.
Natalie’s keen focus on self-development and her determination to expand her skillset, compelled her to travel the world and learn to adapt to different situations. It was after coming home from one of her travels that she stumbled upon her love for mixing and creating her own bath soaks. From there, her highly successful business, Soak Society was born.
Perhaps the most striking part about Natalie’s journey is how a shift in her mindset around money and her self-worth, helped her to exponentially grow her business and always meet her monthly targets.
Street Cred:
Soak Society now creates bath soaks for the modern goddess who knows that Me-Time is essential. It now has over 200 stockists in Australia and 100 stockists in Japan. In 2017, Soak Society was awarded the Anthill Cool Company Award and the Sunshine Coast Business Award.
