ON HER FAVORITE ROLE OUT OF ALL THE THINGS SHE DOES PROFESSIONALLY
Being a mum is by far my favorite. This is my life's mission. From of all of my online presence, what I enjoy the most is the blog. The writing. The word is my first love. The best therapy. Reading is like inhaling, writing is like exhaling. You cannot have one without the other.
ON HOW HER AUDIENCE RECEIVED THE FACT THAT SHE DECIDED TO KEEP THINGS REAL ON SOCIAL MEDIA AND SPEAK ABOUT ALL FACETS OF LIFE
Quite well. A lot of people tell me that what they find on my pages is like a breath of fresh air. People are not stupid. They have a radar for real and fake. And they know that nobody is perfect. So, when I post pictures of me without makeup, I will get comments like ”thank you, this makes me feel so good”! Just knowing that we are not alone, that there are some other tired mothers in the world can give a sense of relief and belonging. Reassurance that you are not the only one.
ON THE MOST IMPORTANT LESSONS SHE HAS LEARNED SINCE BECOMING SUCCESSFUL IN HER SOCIAL MEDIA CARREER
How to help.
You cannot imagine what you can do when you use your voice correctly! I've recently written about a family I met, a father and his two children. Their mother left them when the youngest was 4 months old and they live in a village without a toilet in their house. I met them during my stay in a hospital and I was impressed by the dedication of the father and the brightness of his son. I asked my followers for help to raise money to help them build a bathroom. The people listened. And jumped-in. We've raised 180k Euros for this family in a blink-of-an-eye. This is probably one of the greatest lessons, one that I will never forget. How to help.

ON HER FAVORITE THREE TOPICS TO WRITE ABOUT
Health, education and emotions.
ON HER PROFESSIONAL GOAL
More free time. I managed to get some things sorted earlier this year, when I made some radical choices in my life, sacrificing a lot of money, but actually buying a lot of time with my kids. I know today, at the end of the year, why. It all makes sense. I connected the dots. I am grateful for that tough decision, that destroyed my mental health and my ego as a content creator and as a working mom. But my life's mission is being a mum. For everything else, there is plenty of time.
ON HOW SHE INTEGRATES HER LOVE FOR FASHION AND GIRLY THINGS INTO HER VIBRANT PACE OF LIFE AND ACTIVITIES WITH TWO SMALL BOYS
Please do not imagine I sit in front of the mirror all day. Sometimes, fashion for me means hiding in an oversized pair of jeans and a jacket. I can wear the same top for days, if it makes me feel good. I've learned to appreciate a woman who can shine in flats and one that can tango in stilettos. I've learned that I matter more than what my look. To feel good is priceless. That is the time one can shine bright.
However, I have clothes that I wear with my boys and clothes I wear only when I am not with them. The reason is simple: kids are unpredictable. And I do not fancy getting mad if they step on my white trousers or my precious sneakers. So I never wear precious clothes around kids, but only clothes I would not mind getting dirty or wrecking them.
ON AN ITEM THAT SHE WOULD WEAR AGAIN AND AGAIN
Uuuu, my coral top on Instagram! It is part of my brand now, people recognize me by the red blouse and the coloured pencils around my neck. Because I want people to remember me not for what I wear, but for what I say. On the other hand, please do not worry, I have other clothes, too!
To answer your question: an elegant jumpsuit is one of my fav! I mean, I love it so much, that I could easily say I could live without a dress. Without any dress, that is.
ON THE OUTFIT SHE REACHES OUT FOR WHEN SHE NEEDS A CONFIDENCE BOOST
Forget the outfit, bring on the heels. I love high heels. They do not go with the kids, of course, but I love a classy pair of 12cm stilettos. People will ask me: are the comfy? I go, not like flip-flops! But it is all worth it to me.
ON THE FIVE THINGS SHE THINKS ALL WOMEN SHOULD OWN
A Chanel bag by the time they are 40. No, I am just kidding. This was one of my wishes before turning 40. You should make better wishes. Smarter wishes
All women should have a good sense of humour. A heartfelt smile. Short nails and hot bikinis. Do we have 5?
