Here are ten top tips for keeping your weight from being a distraction when you’re on screen or running your business, with a focus on confidence, mindset, and self-care:

1. Dress for Confidence, Not Size

Find outfits that make you feel powerful and comfortable, focusing on fit rather than the number on the label. Well-fitted clothes can instantly boost your presence on screen.

2. Posture is Everything

Good posture gives off confidence and poise. Sit or stand up straight with your shoulders back to project energy and strength.

3. Choose Flattering Angles

When on video, find your best angles. Elevate your camera slightly and sit or stand so you’re presenting your face and upper body at a flattering angle.

4. Focus on Your Message, Not Your Appearance

Remember, people are tuning in for your expertise, not to judge your looks. Focus on delivering your message with enthusiasm and passion – that’s what shines through!

5. Highlight Your Best Features

Play up your best features with simple makeup or accessories. A pop of colour on your lips or a statement necklace can draw attention to your face rather than your body.

6. Mindset Over Mirror

Stop obsessing over how you look and start focusing on what you bring to the table. Confidence comes from knowing your worth, not from how you look on screen.

7. Avoid Comparisons

It’s easy to fall into the comparison trap, especially on social media. Remind yourself that your uniqueness is what sets you apart, not your physical appearance.

8. Practice, Practice, Practice

The more time you spend on camera, the more comfortable you’ll become. Do a few trial runs before important calls or videos to get used to seeing yourself and working with the camera.

9. Healthy Habits Behind the Scenes

Don’t let the pressures of business push self-care aside. Maintain healthy habits – like regular exercise, hydration, and balanced meals – to help you feel good inside and out.

10. Celebrate Small Wins

Celebrate every small victory – whether it’s feeling great on a video call or staying consistent with your self-care. Confidence builds over time, one win at a time!

These tips will keep your presence and energy strong in business, letting your true self shine through! 💫

Top 10 Tips for Overcoming Mum Guilt & Taking Time Away for Yourself

1. Acknowledge the Guilt but Don’t Let It Stop You

It's normal to feel mum guilt. Accept it, but remind yourself that taking time away doesn’t make you a bad mum—it makes you a better one!

2. Remember: Self-Care = Better Care for Others

When you're well-rested and rejuvenated, you have more energy, patience, and love to give. Think of your break as an investment in your family’s well-being.

3. Plan Ahead

Arrange everything in advance—meal prep, babysitting, or even a schedule for your partner. This helps reduce anxiety and gives you peace of mind while you’re away.

4. Start Small

If a weekend feels too overwhelming, start with a day trip. Easing into time away can help you build confidence and ease the guilt.

5. Involve Your Kids in the Process

Let your children know why mummy needs a little break. Explain that you’ll come back refreshed and ready to have even more fun with them.

6. Focus on the Positive Outcomes

Visualize how amazing you'll feel after your time away. You’ll come back happier, more fulfilled, and energised to be the best version of yourself.

7. Lean on Your Support System

It’s okay to ask for help. Whether it’s a partner, a friend, or family, you don’t have to do everything alone. You’ve earned the support!

8. Set Boundaries

Resist the urge to check in constantly while you're away. Trust that things at home are under control and focus on enjoying your "me time."

9. Celebrate the Small Wins

After you return, recognise the benefits of your time away—whether it’s better sleep, a clearer mind, or simply feeling more present. Give yourself credit for prioritizing you!

10. Remember, You Deserve It!

You work hard every single day. Taking time to recharge isn’t selfish, it's essential. You deserve joy, relaxation, and space to just be.

Taking a break makes you a stronger, happier mum. Embrace it, and let go of the guilt!
