My goal is always to be putting 100% into whatever I do, to be compassionate and always to empower women to create a life they love - I hope that describes my work too!

One of the biggest things I ever did was make the choice to be my own best friend. I made the conscious decision to treat myself like I would treat one of my friends, or someone close to me; which helped me find the beauty within myself.
And when it comes to finding clothes that fit well, a big part of it is knowing your body shape, and knowing what you feel good and confident in! I've done years of trial and error, and modelling helps since I can be changing in and out of 10-20 looks during a shoot!

I get the opportunity to inspire people to chase their dreams and find strength within themselves.

I remind myself that a lot of the time, the people who go out of their way to shame you or make you feel less, are usually struggling with their own self worth and value. No one who is truly happy with who they are as a person is going to go out of their way to say something negative to you - So practice not taking those types of comments personally; and remind yourself that at the end of the day, it really has nothing to do with you; and you are so, so much more than your body.

By modelling positive body image. Our daughters are watching us more than anyone, especially as they get older. Modelling healthy eating habits and exercising, being open to conversations about different sizes and looks without comparing ourselves, and having those positive conversations about who we are can set up our girls to accept who they are and the beauty within that, and owning who they are.
Having a negative self image isn't something we are born with, it's learnt; so if we can teach them to love and accept themselves by first loving and accepting ourselves, the question we ask ourselves changes from "why don't I look like this" to "why am I thinking like this about myself".

I hadn't really thought about it like that haha, but definitely not; when I started posting on social media it was more for fun and I'm so grateful this is now my job. Over the years I've received so many messages from so many beautiful people who resonate with me and have grown more confident seeing what I do and that has been so fulfilling for me.

Boundaries, being compassionate with myself, and doing things that fill up my own cup so I can serve others as best I can. And the everyday things, like a face mask or massage; time to journal or meditate; taking care of my body and mind.

I had half an almond croissant and a granola/yoghurt/fruit cup thing at an event. It was SO good.

The Rise of Her podcast is for those who want to create a life they love! I talk about self development, balancing parenthood and career, mindset, health and fitness and everything in between in the hopes to motivate and inspire people to step out of their comfort zone, and set themselves up for success (whatever that may look like).

I have a few things I'm not quite ready to share yet, but fun stuff is definitely in the works!
