A trailblazer in business and wellness, Kate doesn’t just champion women - she equips them with the tools to take up space, thrive, and redefine success on their own terms.

She launched Moodi straight out of university as an e-commerce startup - and quickly transformed it into a movement. Through strategic marketing, a cult-like community, and bold ideas (including a Range Rover giveaway), Kate turned Moodi into one of Australasia’s fastest-growing wellness brands.

Today, the brand has over 100,000 customers and is stocked in over 300 supermarkets, with demand so strong that in an unprecedented move, retailers introduced purchase limits after Moodi launched into stores.

Kate created a wellness brand that truly resonates with women, offering science-backed solutions that taste delicious.

This year, she gave away $10,000 in cash grants to female founders and has been recognised for her work elevating women across multiple sectors. Kate was named the Most Influential NZ Woman Under 25 at the Westpac Women of Influence Awards and won EY’s Global Corporate Finance Woman of the Year.

She’s the kind of founder who doesn’t just build businesses - she builds loyalty, momentum, and impact.
