Overview
Guest: Kate Sherburn – Legal Beagle (Head of Legal) at Who Gives A Crap
Welcome back to season 2 of Legally Consumed. For our first episode of this season, our hosts sat down with Kate Sherburn, Legal Beagle (Head of Legal) at Who Gives A Crap.
They explore how purpose and product come together in one of Australia’s most recognisable social enterprises.
Kate reflects on joining the company during its early start-up days and stepping in as the first in-house lawyer just months before a global toilet paper shortage turned the business into a household name. She unpacks how her role grew with the company, shaped by a commitment to doing business differently.
The conversation covers Who Gives A Crap’s business model and the systems that keep it flowing. Kate touches on staying transparent in a crowded sustainability space and how fun, display-worthy packaging has helped their products stand out in every loo.
If you are curious about how purpose and legal thinking can go hand in hand or want a behind-the-scenes look at a business that is wiping the floor with traditional models, then this episode is for you.
