Friday Feature: Sayuri Varuthan owner of All In the Presents

Hello Lovies!

Its Friday!!! Which means its time for my weekly feature. This week I'm profiling Sayuri Varuthan, who started her own business called, All In The Presents. 

"My specialty is the Hot Air Balloon Gift Boxes but I cater for any of my customers needs."

As you all know, I normally only profile mompreneurs but when I heard Sayuris' story I felt compelled to support her and her small business. She might not be a mompreneur but she is definitely an entrepreneur, go-getter and an absolute delight in general. 

'All In The Presents' specialises in making gift boxes for all different occasions and the idea came about from receiving something similar for her 25th birthday!

Here's Sayuris' story:

In 2016 she did a Flight Attendant course and is currently a Flight Attendant for Mango Airlines, while also burning the midnight oil studying HR Management through UNISA. 

Given the ongoing situation within the Aviation industry and Mangos current status, she found herself at home with a lot of free time and starting her own business is something she'd always wanted to do. The only decision was, deciding exactly to start. 

"I actually saw these gift boxes on Facebook and Instagram and I always wanted one. On my 25th birthday, my Boyfriend’s aunt made me one filled with flowers and strawberries. I immediately thought that this might be very interesting to make, so for his cousin’s 21st birthday I made her one with all her favourite goodies. The idea sat with me for a few weeks and I debated with myself in those weeks and eventually I decided to give it a shot and open up my own small business. I loved the idea of creating something extraordinary and seeing the smiles on the faces of those who receive it. Having a gifting business allows those who live in other provinces to gift their loved ones with something special and meaningful. I mean everyone loves presents and loves to feel special."

Sayuri officially opened "All in the presents" on the 27 May 2021 and in just over 2 months has wowed clients with her amazing attention to detail and service levels.

"In the two months that I have been opened I have received an immense amount of support and I’m truly grateful for each and every customer who has supported my small business. Being young and a female in this world is challenging and seeing so many incredible women, young and old, starting their own businesses and putting themselves out there, was my biggest motive for starting this business. My goal for now is to continue to grow this business and make it into something bigger. I hope that I can inspire other women to take that leap of faith and start their business."

Footling Breech Birth

Today is a very special day. It's my daughter Emmas first birthday and also the day she died and was revived. I had Emma at a birthing center with a midwife and doula, my water broke the night before at 11pm, we rushed off to the birthing centre and waited it out.  The midwife checked and all was fine, she'd dropped and was in the correct position (to come out head first) but things changed without us actually knowing. Apparently Ems was swimming around in "the biggest placenta" my midwife or doula had ever seen, which was filled with tons of ambionic fluid. Which is great except this meant that over the course of the night she flipped around. All of a sudden I was in active labour and I kept saying it felt as though she was kicking her way out. Everyone just assumed that she was hitting or punching. Anyway as I start to push, I look down (I was sort of standing/squatting) and I see feet coming out of me, not a head.  It was terrifying, she had turned and was coming o...

Post baby body image

The intention of this post is to reassure every single women and especially moms with body image issues that we ALL have them. These photos of me were taken exactly 8 days after giving birth to my daughter, Emma. I knew I had a "pouch" but I didn't care. I was so proud of my body for the absolute miracle of being able to birth 2 kids, 18 months apart. I was superwoman. My body was a freaking machine! Prior to this, I would've been on a diet for months before allowing any bikini pictures to be taken of me, let alone actually post them. I remember a few years back exercising and dieting like a machine for months before going on vacation to Zanzibar and even then I wasn't entirely happy with my body. The pride I had in my body, was unfortunately short lived though. We are all constantly inundated, with edited photos of women and even though, we all know those pictures aren't real, we still unconsciously shame ourselves for not looking a certain way. My weight has...

Own your mornings!

At the beginning of this year I was on the search for direction, I didn't quite know what I wanted to do but I knew that I needed something for myself outside of being a stay at home mom. So instead of watching brain numbing stuff on TV, I started searching for positive, successful, women role models online. I stumbled on to Evan Carmichael who does these awesome videos on amazing speakers, life coaches, ect Top 10 or 50 rules for success. Unfortunately there really aren't enough women out there doing this work, or at least not being featured. Anyway one day I stumbled upon a top 10 rules for success by Marie Forlio and started listening to her YouTube channel daily. One day, she had this guest on, Robin Sharma and he was talking about this book called, the 5am club, which he had written. I stopped what I was doing and actively sat down and watched the episode. It sounded like an amazing idea, for the first hour you're awake you break your day up into three 20 minutes segme...
