After working for the National Health Service and moving to Dubai, she became a stay-at-home mom, but it wasn't until she was made fun of by her family for being overweight and admired by her daughter for being lazy that she decided to change her life and impact others in her community in a positive way. She discusses the importance of self-love, the struggles of her past and the pressure to conform. Join us as we dive into the ways in which Tess helps others to improve their mental health, build self-confidence and live a more fulfilling life.
