My Story

Welcome to The Empathy Gift Co.

My name is Esther (Es) and firstly I would like to say how honoured I am that Samantha chose my business partner Ricky Thomson and myself to take over The Empathy Gift Co. We sincerely hope we do it justice.


Gift giving has always been a passion of mine, there is something special about crafting the perfect present for someone, what started as a hobby has now given me the opportunity to share joy, grief, loss, love and compassion with the already pre-existing beautifully curated hampers as well as branching out with new hampers. I am so excited to start.

My business partner approached me a few years back about creating hampers together but as full-time worker and mother of three it just was not the right time. But life changes and it has a way sometimes of providing what we need when we need it. Purchasing The Empathy Gift Co marks such a significant milestone in our business journey.

With our combined skills and dedication, we aim to enhance the brand’s reputation for quality and compassion, ensuring that every gift box brings a touch of empathy, warmth, and love to its recipients.

Together we are excited to build the company’s solid foundation and explore new avenues for growth and innovation.

About me!
I am a mother of three beautiful children, wife to my amazing husband Mike and a puppy mum to a Labradoodle named Chewie and a French Bulldog Potatoe.

The past year has been such an exciting, somewhat scary year of growth both mentally and emotionally for me. I’ve taken this year to really find out who I am as a person, who I am as wife and who I am as a mother.
