In this episode guest presenter Georgia Main talks to Anita McLachlan about retail business.
At the helm of Sequins and Sand for the past 7 years, Anita has learned a thing or two about what women want and how they feel about getting ready for their precious summer holidays. And it’s the ‘how they feel’ about getting summer ready that she’s most passionate about. Helping women who have lost their confidence and in particular their cossie confidence, find the courage and the right swimsuit to get them off the sidelines and diving into truly enjoying their summer, is what gives her enormous joy and purpose.
But it’s not all swimsuits and kaftans. Married to the military, moving every 2-3 years and with two gorgeous children, family matters the most to this devoted Mum. In fact, having an online business that could move with her wherever and whenever she did was one of the drivers for setting up Sequins and Sand.
Change is the biggest constant in her life and she thrives on it. Having been a radiographer, project manager (among other things in the retail property development arena), being an online entrepreneur is just another town on her journey so far with plenty on the drawing boards for the years ahead. Seeing more of the world will be a big part of that.
