Tiffany Wood has used three months of hub life to become the ultimate mum-trepreneur.
The wife of Western Bulldogs star Easton Wood is eight months pregnant with their second child, caring for their busy one year-old daughter Matilda and running a content marketing consultant agency from Queensland.
On top of that she has just started a new business this week, a matching mums and bubs swimwear line, called Honey and Tiny.
“Launching a business from a hub in a pandemic has had its challenges, not to mention being primary carer without support from family here,’’ Wood said.
“My hub-hustle has been an amazing distraction. I got my first sample in May but because of COVID-19 it took two months to get more.
“Then they turned up here at the hotel and by mid August I had a sample range I was happy with.”
Other Bulldogs wives and partners in the hub, Emily Wallis and Logan Shine, turned models with their children for Wood’s first campaign.
All materials for the bathers are made from 100% recycled plastic bottles, plus she has a line called Pikilyi, a collaboration with the Warlu Arts centre, featuring an indigenous artist’s work with a profit share.
“People were saying you’re so ungrateful going up there for a holiday, and I totally understand that, but I’m living in a hotel room with a one year-old and I’m very pregnant and I also have a another business,’’ Wood said.
“I’ll be forever grateful to the AFL for this. When we got up here Tilly could only sit and now she’s nearly walking. She’s gone from being a baby to a toddler so it would have been pretty heartbreaking if (Easton) wasn’t around for that.”
Wood will return home to Melbourne this week to prepare for the birth and is confident Easton won’t miss it.
The Bulldogs embark on their finals campaign after this weekend’s bye.
“I’m due November 3 but I was early last time,’’ Wood said.
“There’s a bye in between so I need to get home before I can’t travel and make a nursery.”
