arlie Victor is passionate about making a difference. She started Real Active in 2017 after a difficult time struggling with the loss of her beloved Nan. She had suffered from anxiety and depression for half her life and after such a difficult year, her anxiety was at an all-time high and mood at the lowest of lows. She started to dream of ways she could make a living doing what she is passionate about and help others suffering with their mental health too. And so, the seed of Real Active grew. Real Active is an activewear and accessories brand that make a difference by championing mental health awareness and donating 10% of all proceeds to mental health charities, such as Batyr and The Yoga Foundation. To date, she has raised over $21,000 for youth mental health, making a difference to the lives of 500 young people. Carlie has grown the business to a multiple-six figure business, with over 16,000 customers from 41 countries all over the world and an inspiring, passionate community (in other words, over 45k followers on social media!).
