With every storm, there is the promise of rainbows! This month we encourage you to enjoy the Top End, with a 'visit' the Tiwi Islands. 'Let's get stuck in the mud' as islander Malcolm Lynch talks about his connection to Country and teaches us the Tiwi word for his family totem, Ampiji - the Rainbow Serpent.
📷 Little Yarns have put together a great sound story about rainbows. Listen here

Easter is a time for reflection, realisation of what matters and a revival of spirit. 


As times are a changing...we want to give you the gift of hope this Easter. As a collective we are full of creative minds and we are working together to bring you new gifts, new means for community collaboration and most of all we continue to live our 2020 Vision: Sea Change to grow a Made with Kindness Economy. 

Our shopfronts are now taking a break, and we invite you to read only below about how we have teamed up with EMG Performance Psychology to support both our present and past members of team Starwin. 

We continue to offer you a premium online shopping experience, with the gift of FREE Shipping or local delivery and we have delivered new special prices on a collection of wellbeing gifts - we invite you to check out our sale here ~ a wonderful way to spread some kindness this Easter and if you are looking ahead to Mother's Day. If you unsure what to give, but would like to show your support, we have introduced MK Eco by Starwin GIFT CARDS too! 

Another new addition to our service, we are also establishing a Buy, Swap & Sell group so you can share your pre-loved Starwin items that you no longer need and pay it forward. This is part of our commitment to care for country too! 

Our suppliers are discovering new ways to keep us inspired; Babbarra Women's Centre have produced a 14 artists in 14 days storytelling series, Eddie's Lil Homies is hosting storytime sessions with Eddie Betts, and we hope you find a moment to watch this creative heartfelt message from Mimmim. Now is the best time to invest in local artisans, mumpreneurs and community enterprises and keep a kindness economy flowing. 

We invite you to stay connected to our facebook page and instagram to discover more one-of-a-kindness ways to keep culture strong, care for country and care for kids as we aim to do business better.

Corporate + Cultural Gifts 

In 2020 we are celebrating new ways you can create cultural spaces at home, in your workplace and in community. One of the best ways is through cooking and we welcome the addition of Maningrida Wild Foods to our collection  at www.starwin.com.au

 
'Maningrida Wild Foods are sustainably harvest on homelands in Arnhem Land and are fully owned and operated by Bawinanga Aboriginal Corporation. Their  goal is to create economic opportunities so we can continue to live on our country, connected to our songlines. They use the knowledge of bush food and seafood cultivated by our ancestors over thousands of years. This means practices are highly sustainable and have high cultural significance and help elders preserve our culture to pass down to our children.'

Book of the Month

As someone who has always read and written poetry for inspiration, I believe in the power of words.  I saw two of my fave thought leaders in Brene Brown and Alicia Keys have teamed up to present on this topic this week, click here to enjoy

And so I felt deep joy when I received my copy of To Serve in the mail this week and was able to immerse myself. Thanks to Jess Webster, author of Gods of Thunder for the recommendation, hope you all feel the calming that I did, the power of words! 

📝 Now your turn, what's your fave read that inspires your personal leadership journey?
