About us

How it began

 I’m not sure if my journey starts with my first taste of rendang at a London food market, my international development career that took me across the globe, or my childhood in Nigeria surrounded by entrepreneurial spirit. Maybe it begins with the comfort of my family’s slow-cooked meals. Wherever it began, Malaysia called to me, and I set out to learn the art of authentic Malaysian cooking. Years later, The Happy Pot was born, a celebration of food that brings joy and connection.

Turning pain into purpose

Since the age of 16, I’ve struggled with debilitating period pain, which left me drained.  It wasn’t until years later that I discovered the power of nutrition. By eating iron-rich, nutrient-dense foods, I found I could better manage my symptoms and recover more quickly. This realisation changed everything, inspiring me to create The Happy Pot Nourish Box: a subscription box filled with delicious meals, nourishing snacks, and pampering treats to help women feel replenished, cared for, and energised during their period.
