Nicole Trunfio on Feeling Good and Doing What You Love
If anyone knows how to stay feeling powerful, strong, and beautiful while pregnant, it’s Australian model-turned-entrepreneur, Nicole Trunfio who has reinvented loungewear for mamas with her shapewear brand, Bumpsuit. Designed to layer and be styled into a new outfit with each wear, Bumpsuit helps the body transition through the seasons of pregnancy… seamlessly.
Trunfio is a busy mother of three and married to Blues musician Gary Clark Jr. Not one to stay still (like literally ever), she also serves as the woman-in-charge behind ERTH SWIM and ERTH Jewelry... and if that’s not enough to tire you out, catch her as she “brings fun back in the kitchen” as #cheftrunfio on her IGTV and Youtube channels. Kitchen Sink Roast anyone?
We recently caught up with the uber busy businesswoman to get some of her favorite mothering tips...
What is your number one tip for feeling attractive, even during your third trimester?
Wear clothes that are figure hugging and don't forget to dress up!
What is one piece of clothing every pregnant woman needs to feel her most confident?
A Bumpsuit!
How do you find time for yourself while juggling so many projects and your beautiful family?
Doing what you love is time for yourself. I like to surround myself with people, projects, and things that I love!
Where do you find inspiration for all of your creative ventures?
My brain is non-stop, I'm constantly thinking of new ideas. It's really natural for me.
How do you foster creativity in your children?
I try to be an inspiration and lead by example. I think that when kids see adults doing what they love it stays with them. I also try to keep them engaged and be present when I'm with them.
What is the best advice you can give to other mothers?
My advice would be to always trust your gut. A mother's intuition is so incredibly powerful... and YOU know more about your children than anyone else!
