I’m honoured to welcome Tanya Boots to The Debra Shepherd Podcast this week. Tanya is the Founder of Inspirational Tea Co., a Gold Coast–based tea gifting brand that turns everyday tea breaks into moments of inspiration. After 15 years in FMCG as a Category Manager, Tanya swapped spreadsheets for teabags, creating premium whole-leaf teas with motivational quotes on every tag. Beyond the cup, Tanya has built a warm community of tea lovers who connect through shared rituals, events, and micro-gifting moments. Tanya’s mission is to inspire busy women to pause, connect, and feel supported — one cup at a time.
