For many women, gaining weight, especially after childbirth, can be a challenging and emotional experience, as their bodies undergo rapid changes. Moreover, it can take a toll on their health and self-confidence. Sandra Perkins-Lighe faced this struggle as well, experiencing weight gain after giving birth to her four children.”
During her time of distress, she explored the use of natural plants for weight loss, and every path in her research led to moringa. Familiar with the moringa tree, Sandra wasted no time in preparing her homemade moringa tea—and before long, she noticed positive changes in her health.
A few months later, Sandra shared her knowledge of moringa with a friend, offering guidance on its use. Soon after, her friend returned with positive results, which marked the beginning of a journey. More and more people began seeking her advice.
This growing interest sparked a business opportunity for Sandra. With newfound confidence, she started processing moringa leaves into tea bags and powder for various applications, eventually launching her product line.
Sandra began processing and packaging moringa products in her kitchen, using leaves from her garden. However, as demand grew, her supply could no longer keep up.
To meet the rising need, she started sourcing moringa leaves from other growers.
With business expanding rapidly, Sandra relocated production first to her dining room and later to her garage, adapting to the increasing demand.”
