What's the most surprising thing you've discovered about yourself since becoming a mother?
"Probably my physical and mental endurance, both during the labor and those early months with a baby getting up so many times during the night. I've also learned to be fully present in the moment more, and my life feels so much richer and more rounded, it's no longer just about work or the anxiety of the next deadline. When he smiles at you, nothing else in the world matters in that moment, and it puts everything into perspective."
How has your style changed since you've had kids?
"My style has become a little more casual and I'm wearing more sportswear-inspired pieces than I previously did."
