You seem to be enjoying motherhood? How is the experience?
It’s one of the best things to happen to me and I feel really blessed to experience it and still be able to work. Arik truly brings joy to my life. It’s a completely indescribable feeling to see something that you’ve created!
Has motherhood changed you? if yes, in what ways?
I think I am calmer and more driven. It (being a mother) gives you focus and clarity and that helps with work and all other relationships.
Any qualities you want to gift him or equip him with?
Just to be humble and cool and the rest will fall into place. Work hard and be a good person!
Please tell us about Deme, your clothing label.
