It's not vanity to feel you have a right to be beautiful. Women are taught to feel we're not good enough, that we must live up to someone else's standards. But my aim is to cherish myself as I am.

For me, just being on the cover of a magazine wasn't enough. I began to think, what value is there in doing something in which you have no creative input?

The birth of my sons. The birth of new emotions...what a privilege. What a blessing.

Being a parent is a huge part of who I am, and of course I share that with other women. I'm not just a business woman. I'm my sons' mother and my husband's wife - although I never post about him on social media because he'd probably divorce me if I did! But I think by showing who I am as a mom and as a business owner, I show other women that we're all balancing those two worlds.

You have nothing to sell except for the image: The image is everything.

If your wearing lingerie that makes you feel glamorous, you're halfway thereto turning heads.

Everything I do is about women honouring themselves, treating themselves and taking care of themselves.
