CHECKOUT Bettina McLeod from Try@Home

Bettina McLeod is a visionary leader who blends operational systems and marketing to better the lifestyle and experiences of others. With an entrepreneurial spark that began at the age of 14, Bettina challenged the status quo by leaving school early and diving straight into business. She quickly learnt that trading hours for time was not a winning situation, and in order to create the lifestyle she wanted; she would need to become her own boss. This mindset led her into 25+ years of business as a multi-passionate entrepreneur before becoming a leader in lifestyle businesses. Throughout the years, Bettina has built, grown and transformed numerous brands. She has a strategist background, loves to problem solve, and is the current owner of 2 businesses, a stunning 1950-60s swimwear label, called Sirens Swimwear and her new technology platform Try@Home.
