Anthia Put Lessons Of A Tough Year To Good Use And Prepares To Blossom
At the end of last month, naturopath Anthia Koullouros addressed a 4,000-strong audience as one of the speakers at the prestigious Australian Real Estate Agents Conference (AREC) at the Gold Coast. It would not be the natural audience for an alternative medicine practitioner but times are changing.
“I spoke about the long-term consequences of long-term stress and real estate agents suffer stress like everyone else. I think everyone on the planet is stressed right now,” Ms Koullouros told Neos Kosmos.
The theme of the talk best reflects her philosophy: “How to re-calibrate an overwhelmed, fearful, dis-eased mind and body using whole food, nature’s medicine and lifestyle wisdom.”
“My talk went down really well, and I am busier now than I was before the conference. I have spoken at other conferences, but this was probably the biggest.”

Healing The Healer
Out of a devastating business breakdown, a new local brand has emerged, writes Lara Picone
Anthia Koullouros doesn’t want to hear that business isn’t personal. For the long-time Paddington naturopath and organic tea crafter, business is, in fact, acutely personal.
“I create teas, tisanes and herbal remedies and provide services, which are personal. I'm in the business of helping people heal,” she says.
Many locals have sought Koullouros’s naturopathic advice on their personal path to health, which she dispenses with genuine empathy from her Glenmore Rd clinic. And many more have purchased her carefully considered teas under the label she started and nurtured more than 16 years, Ovvio Organic Teas.
Yet, oftentimes, the healer finds they are the one in need of a remedy.
As a practising naturopath with 26 years of clinical experience and as the founder of a popular tea brand, no one could accuse Koullouros of not being a savvy operator. However, as for many others, 2020 proved the year that took her to the edge professionally and, therefore, personally.
But unlike many, Koullouros’s struggle wasn’t entirely COVID-induced. Rather, a business partnership that didn’t align as she had hoped saw her walk away from Ovvio Organic Teas, divorcing herself from the brand and starting out again under her own name.
The crisis came when Koullouros moved to scale up the small business to take the brand to a bigger audience. But things did not turn out as she imagined when entering the partnership.
“I needed capital and I needed operating support,” she says.

PODCAST NOVEMBER 2020
Futuresteading - Anthia Koullouros, Apothecarius, slow living maven, truth seeker.
For all the fad diets, juice fasts and dogma out there, few health advocates keep it as real as Anthia Koullouros.Anthia is one of Sydney's original nose-to-tail, soil-to-plate, no-BS Naturopaths who was questioning supplements and sipping bone broth before it was cool. She's an author, speaker, educator and Apothecarius (listen in to see what that brilliant term entails) who weaves science, spirituality, feminism and self care like an absolute master -- yet never takes herself too seriously.This chat with Anthia was particularly timely, catching her right on the cusp of big business and life changes which she was gracious enough to share with us.You'll leave this convo feeling like you've received a big, warm bear hug from a wise woman who just gets it.
