Josh Howard is the Founder of cult Aussie sustainability brand Single Use Ain’t Sexy – he created Australia’s first dissolving hand soap tablet, which comes along with a sexy reusable glass bottle for sustainability-conscious Aussies to proudly display in their home/ office/ cafe/ workshop/ campervan/ spaceship. Since launching, Josh’s waste-free soaps have saved up to 125,000 single-use plastic soap bottles from finding their way into landfill. It’s a genius idea.
We spoke with Josh about the three rituals he incorporates into his mornings.
The first thing I do is make my bed. I can’t leave my bedroom and get on with my day, until it is made! It’s part of a childhood routine and you know what they say about old habits dying hard…
I run. I used to hate the idea of working out in the mornings, but as I’ve gotten older I realise it’s the best thing ever. It gives me a clear head and makes me feel fresh for the whole day.
Is work allowed to be a ritual? At the moment, it feels like it! Our business Single Use Ain’t Sexy is like a high maintenance but loveable infant which I’m (gladly) attached at the hip with 24/7. As soon as my run ends, the work day starts, and it doesn’t stop until late at night.
