Which Movie would you love to be the star off?

Dirty Dancing, without a doubt! The way Baby changed from a little girl to a strong, confident woman… I love it. And we all know: “Nobody puts Baby in the corner!”

My Favourite Food

All depends on my mood. During summer, mussels with all kind of sauces, fries and a glass of cold white wine. In the winter, burger with pulled pork and fries. When at the beach, bitterballs and… fries. So I guess we can safely say that fries are my favourite food!

If I could time travel to any point of time where would I go first?

I would stay where I am now. Learned from yesterday, enjoying today, and looking forward to tomorrow!

My proudest moment?

The first time I held my baby is at the lonesome top of the list of course. Every little success I achieve for Heart feels like a proud moment, because the team is right behind me, being my personal cheerleader squad. And one thing I learned is that it’s perfectly okay to celebrate your own success and be proud of yourself.

My personal wellness tip.

I have two mantras that I tell myself quite often:

Worry, but know that worrying is as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubble gum.
Don’t listen to criticism from people you wouldn’t ask for advice.
