Summary

Today’s episode will take us quite literally across the globe to the stunning landscapes of New Zealand, where I get to chat with Stephanie Hassall, the creative force behind Pure Pods—fully transparent luxury eco-cabins that offer an immersive experience in nature like no other. If you followed along on IG during my travels last month, then you surely saw this location, and today we get to talk to the CEO behind the brand. Stephanie’s innovative approach combines sustainability with luxury, set in some of New Zealand’s most breathtaking and secluded spots.

In this episode, Stephanie shares her journey from her family’s rustic cabin roots to revolutionizing cabin experiences with Pure Pods. We’ll dive into the challenges and triumphs of building these unique retreats, the impact of Pure Pods on local communities, and the future of sustainable tourism.
