Tassie Wellness Q&A
Share
Who are Luke and Cherise?
Cherise was born and raised on Tasmania's west coast, and Luke is now a proud Tasmanian with 20 years as a qualified PT and a background in corporate wellness and leadership roles. He's the head coach at Boot Camps Tasmania, which we own together. Together with our five kids, we're part of this community living in beautiful Port Sorell on the N/W coast of Tassie, and the heart of Tassie Wellness Co.
Why is it called Tassie Wellness Co if products aren't from Tasmania?
We're rooted right here in Tasmania—born from listening to our Boot Camps community in Port Sorell and Devonport. What makes us truly Tasmanian is our mission: supporting our local families, sharing wellness knowledge, and shining a light on the amazing businesses and events happening in our community.
Where do your products come from?
Our whey protein is from local Aussie sources—Australia & New Zealand. Our collagen is predominantly from Brazil, and we're actively working to source it from Australia and are in talks with suppliers right now.
Will you ever source everything from Tasmania?
That's our dream! We'd love to have all our products from Tasmanian sources and Tasmanian cows. However, there are currently no dairy farms in Tasmania turning whey into whey powder for suppliers, and we haven't found anyone in Tasmania producing bulk collagen powder yet. We're committed to finding local solutions as we grow.
What will you be sharing on your socials?
You'll see wellness tips, easy recipes, and real snapshots of our busy family life—balancing business, parenting five kids, and exploring the amazing places our community has to offer. We're all about keeping it real and relatable!
What's your approach as a small business?
We're finding our feet and learning as we grow. We value your feedback and advice, and we hope we can become a trusted part of your wellness journey.
