Find Your Spring Glow with INTU Wellness
Spring is the season of renewal, the perfect time to refresh your style and your wellbeing. To celebrate, we’ve partnered with Anna Robards, lawyer, mum of two, and co-founder of INTU Wellness, the ingestible beauty and health brand making waves in the wellness world.
We sat down with Anna to talk all things inner glow, from her favourite Spring rituals, to how she juggles running a business with family life.

Why do you love spring?
I love that things start to warm up and people instantly feel more active. You can get outside more, do more things, and your whole mood is lifted. There’s something about spring that feels like a reset, everything feels lighter and fresher. Fashion also starts to shift, which I love because it gives you the chance to mix things up and start fresh in your wardrobe. It’s a season that just feels full of energy and possibility.
What’s your health and fitness focus at this time of year?
I definitely feel more energised in spring and summer because the sunshine makes me want to get outside and move my body. But I do try to keep it consistent throughout the year, even in winter. My focus is always to do something physical every single day and to get outside in the sunlight if I can. Sleep is also a big part of my health and I notice such a difference when I’ve had a good night’s rest. So while the warmer weather makes it easier, it’s really about keeping up those daily habits year-round.
How do you maintain your energy levels managing busy event season, work, and parenting two little girls?
For me, energy doesn’t start in the morning, it starts the night before. Everyone thinks about what to do after they wake up to feel energised, but I’ve found it’s all about my sleep routine. I dim the lights at night, I try my hardest not to use my phone an hour before bed, and I take magnesium and passion flower to support a deeper, more restful sleep. That’s what allows me to wake up refreshed. In the morning, I try to get sunlight in my eyes straight away because it helps set your circadian rhythm and makes a big difference to how you feel for the rest of the day. Of course, there are days when nothing goes to plan and you just go with the flow, but sleep is always my number one.
Go-to meal to feel great?
Breakfast is my favourite meal. I try to push my first meal back to around 10 or 11 if I can, but it always involves eggs. My go-to is poached eggs with avocado, tomato, and if I have goat’s cheese on hand, I’ll sprinkle that on top with some salt and pepper. It’s delicious.
Spring style tips? And what you love about Cable’s Spring Collection?
Spring for me is all about lightening things up and keeping it fresh but still timeless. I love that Cable’s new collection is now available nationally and very close to me at Pacific Fair. The pieces feel like spring but still keep that sophisticated edge. I love that the brand has great quality fabrics that really stand the test of time. My style has always been simple, I don’t like to overdo it. I think confidence outshines any outfit, and when you dress in a way that feels good for you, you can make anything work.

What’s your go-to for stress relief?
Stress relief is about taking time away from everything, and just having time for myself. I don’t see it as selfish because it makes me a better person. I’m more enjoyable to be around, and I’m a better mum to my kids and a better wife to my husband. Sometimes that looks like a walk on my own, going to the gym, getting a massage, or sitting in the sauna. Whatever it is, it’s me time, and I’ve learnt that’s non-negotiable for my mental health.
