Episode Details

Nathan Toleman is one of Melbourne's most dynamic restaurateurs. With wife Sarah, he's progressed from a suburban cafe 13 years ago through a series of increasingly ambitious businesses that have culminated in Hazel and Dessous in Flinders Lane. Nathan puts mental wellbeing front and centre in his business culture, with meditating and farming part of the routine, though he admits he's finding it a challenge to meditate his way through the COVID times. We talk about struggling with uncertainty, the perils of lockdown and the benefits of turning mental health into a habit, just like flossing.
