The Conscious Spender offers products for the home ranging from personal care,
household cleaning products and protein, tea and coffee. All products are
personally vetted by company founder Jan Caton with a focus on being
Australian-made, ethically-sourced, environmentally safe and with as limited
exposure to toxins as possible.
The inspiration for the Conscious Spender came from a variety of different ideas -
and the many career paths - of Jan. An accredited Naturopath with 25 years
experience working in retail, Jan’s interest in sourcing quality locally-made
products began early on in her retail journey, working with her Uncle in an
Australiana store. Five years ago Jan decided to follow her passion and become
a Naturopath, currently practising at her own clinic Magnolia Apothecary. Her
interactions with clients led to many discussions about where to source
environmentally safe and ethical local products, which gave Jan the idea to offer
them all in the one convenient place.
When you purchase from The Conscious Spender, you are not only supporting
small, local and regional Australian businesses, you also get the chance to
support worthy charity organisations. Each sale is closed off by donating a
percentage of the profit to a variety of worthy charity organisations. These
organisations will be different each quarter, with you the shopper making the final
conscious decision where you would like your donation to go.
