We chat to Saasha Burns, Founder and Creative Director of wellness line BEAR. Having recently welcomed her baby girl Ocean into the world, Saasha talks to us about motherhood and her plans for Mother's Day this weekend...

What does motherhood mean to you?

Motherhood means everything to me — family is home. Unconditional love, selflessness, empathy, honesty, strength, growth + true happiness and purpose.

How has motherhood changed the way you view the world?

We don't inherit the earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children. ― David Brower

What have you learnt since becoming a mother?

Family comes first, every thing else is second. It has taught me greater empathy for others, real and meaningful connection, patience + knowing what is really important in life. Being present with family is the greatest gift.

Was there something your mum always taught you growing up?

To be an original.

How are you and your family spending Mother’s Day this year?

At home on the Sunshine Coast, as a new family of four. Lots of newborn + toddler cuddles, creating memories + appreciating the little things — with a good natural vino to end the day!
