Meet the team helping people feel better with Australia’s best gift hampers
SARAH
With her trademark “can-do” attitude and an abundance of positive energy, Sarah Willmott is a woman on a surprisingly simple mission: help people feel better with Australia’s best gift hampers.
The effervescent founder of Feel Better Box lovingly curates care packages, gift hampers and health and wellness services that are a welcomed (and longer lasting) alternative to flowers. From sleep remedies, soothing skin lotions, herbal teas and Joode Socks, Sarah’s Feel Better Box gift hampers are the perfect antidote for any occasion – pregnancy, motherhood, hospital stays, pick-me-ups, corporate gifts and even the dreaded man-flu.
Launched to acclaim in 2015, Sarah’s business has already helped hundreds of people feel better connected, supported, recognized and celebrated. In turn, so too has her dedication and professional achievements, being crowned Emerging AusMumpreneur runner-up in the 2017 AusMumpreneur Business Awards.
When Sarah’s not sending heart-warming gift hampers out into the world, you’ll find her living life to the fullest with her young family, enjoying the simple pleasures of a good book, a glass of wine and a movie, or dreaming up new ways to make the world a better place.
Sarah lives in Melbourne, Australia.
SUSIE
I reached out to Susie in March 2018 to be my virtual assistant and cover my inbox whilst I took a holiday to Bali. When I got back, I couldn't give her up.
Susie and I worked together in Sydney before we were both made redundant together in 2013. Although we only briefly worked together across six months, that meeting and subsequent loss of jobs set in motion both of our changes in careers. Susie went on to build her own VA business. I eventually founded Feel Better Box (in 2015).
I am so greatfull for our redundencies and finding our way back together. I love working Susie, and trust her with my business baby - FBB to look after my customers as her own. Susie has all the skills that I do not hold. She keeps me organised, she has a thousand times better attention to detail then me and makes sure I don't forget things and more importantly get things done.
I don't get to Sydney as often as I'd like, but this is a pic above from the last time I was in Sydney.
COLIN
This is my Dad, my hero - my superhero in fact. If i'm unwell - he comes and covers me at the Feel Better Box warehouse. If I have school holidays and am taking the kids out for the day or on holiday, my Dad covers me. If I have a market for my other little baby business Joode, my Dad covers for me.
And that is all on top of being just an amazing Dad and Granddad. I am super lucky I know it every day.
