In the spirit of International Women’s Day on March 8, we celebrate three leading women in business – Kate Save, the Be Fit Food CEO, Cassandra Spies, the Healthy Twisted Treats CEO and Debbie Taylor, the CIO of NBN.
From owners and founders of companies disrupting the health scene with their weight-loss solutions and healthy alternatives to our favourite frozen treats, to a chief information officer at NBN who is making conscious decisions to support and encourage gender equality in STEM, they are all making a difference.
While they acknowledged the barrier between gender and success, they are not ones to let obstacles get in their way.
Listen to our three podcasts taken from our recent Game Changers series where they were each interviewed by TV host Melissa Doyle.
Kate Save, Be Fit Food CEO
Kate Save is a respected Accredited Practicing Dietitian, Accredited Exercise Physiologist, and a Diabetes Educator who today is taking the weight-loss journeys into her own hands. By combining science and technology, she’s started her business Be Fit Food to provide Australians with safe, rapid weight-loss solutions.

Cassandra Spies, CEO and Founder Twisted Healthy Treats
Cassandra Spies realised during her trip to the US over 10 years ago that there was a gaping hole in Australia’s dessert market…there were no healthy alternatives. She took the opportunity, using her knowledge from her Bachelor of Science in Food Tech, to start up what is now called Twisted Healthy Treats – the frozen desserts that keep the great taste we all love as well as all the health benefits.
