If you've ever bumped into me outside of work-mode, you'll know I pretty much live in activewear and leggings. And rarely plain black too - I'm all about the colour and prints. So needless to say, I'm very excited to hear the story behind today's business - Zeenya Clothing, makers of New Zealand's happiest activewear!

When Chloe and her new work friend Sarah headed to Brazil for a wedding they were just blown away by the colourful culture they found, and decided on their return to start their own New Zealand business creating colourful activewear for Kiwi women – despite having no experience in sewing or fashion between them.

Zeenya is more than just colourful leggings – the quality and functionality of their products comes first of course, but they've also created a whole community here in New Zealand of proud active women who are loving their bodies and embracing a colourful life.

If you're listening to this episode around the time of release, head over to the Pep Talk Instagram right now (@peptalknz) to enter our giveaway to WIN your very own pair of Zeenya leggings. These are so soft and deluxe - and made right here in NZ - you'll love them!​
