This International Women’s Day, we’re celebrating the women who inspire us.

From the friends who keep us going to the artists who break boundaries, inspiration comes in many forms.

We asked the Cowshed team: who inspires you and, with Mother's Day just around the corner, who are you treating?

Annabel, Assistant Brand Manager

The woman who inspires me:
My best friend! She’s always there when I need her, endlessly supportive, and kind to everyone she meets. That kind of quiet generosity is something I really admire.

What I’m gifting this Mother’s Day:
I’m giving my mum a Cowshed Indulge Travel Set. She needs a little nudge to take break and treat herself for once.

Aditi, eCommerce Director
The woman who inspires me:
Yayoi Kusama. She's my favourite artist and one who broke a lot of rules to live life on her own terms.

What I’m gifting this Mother’s Day:
My parents are moving this month and it's been chaotic. My sister and I are joining forces to give my mum a Relax & Unwind Hamper. She's never had a hamper before so it will definitely feel like a special treat!

Kat, Senior Brand Manager

The woman who inspires me:

My younger sister. She works in care, supporting people when they’re at their most vulnerable. The kind of work that rarely gets applause but holds the world together.

What I’m gifting this Mother’s Day:

The Indulge Room Candle. With rose, jasmine and ylang ylang, it instantly softens a room like pressing pause for a moment.
