Do you get your five a day?

Five coffees? Yes. I do try to have a good balance though nutrition wise. Everything in moderation is my thing.

Have you ever dieted?

Yes I have dieted. But more health kicks than diets. I am currently dieting now. I am doing Jenny Craig because it is easy, food delivered to my door. Having a business and a young baby, I don’t have the mental capacity to meal plan. This is a really simple and easy way for me to get rid of my postpartum excess weight by following a menu and I am actually really enjoying it. It is great.

What regular vitamins do you take?

Ashwagandha for general wellbeing and Nutra Organics’ Collagen Beauty for hair, skin and nails. I have also been using the range of ELEVIT Vitamins throughout different stages of motherhood.

What health advice would you have given yourself 10 years ago?

Start stretching pronto. Just because I think from being pregnant through COVID and I really wasn’t very mobile, I feel like the Tin Man sometimes where I need some oil in my joints to move. Stretching I think from a younger age would have been a very good

Would you have plastic surgery? Botox?

I’d never say never, but doubt I would have plastic surgery. I believe you should be comfortable in your own skin and that is how I have always tried to live my life.

What is your guilty pleasure in life?

A pina colada … and Botched the TV show.
