Lauryn, Accounts Manager — Mum-to-be
You’re about to step into the world of motherhood — how exciting! What lessons has your own mother taught you that you will take with you on the journey?
My mum is and has always been my biggest influence and supporter, I'm so grateful to have been raised by such a strong-willed woman whose instilled great values. She’s taught me the importance of family time, to love always and be honest, and to make sure I always wear clean underwear.
You’re such a cool and collected character, are you hoping to take this into motherhood?
Thank you - yes most definitely. I think my husband plays a big part in this - he reminds me that perspective is everything and to take life slowly. We need to stop and enjoy the little moments. I think this is so important for motherhood.
What excites you most about becoming a mother?
I'm so excited for all the learning curves to come, for life to completely change and to be meeting my little one very soon.
