To honour and celebrate International Women’s Day this year, we invited five inspirational local women to share what womanhood means to them. This is Zubie's story.
Tell us a bit about you. What are you currently focused on, what does your day to day look like?
I've been working in influencer marketing & talent management for the last 10 years. From a small start-up boutique agency to now working for a global entertainment company. My day to day is a lot of video calls with talent, pr and marketing agencies, brands, and media. All this as well as juggling family life.
What is a life motto that you live by?
To make a commitment to grow daily and live with intention.
How would you describe the modern woman?
I see today's woman as strong, independent, confident, an expert multi-tasker, leader, nurturer, driven & passionate. A modern woman is someone who questions, asks & challenges. Someone who stands up for the voiceless and uplifts her circle.
What does being a woman mean to you?
Ok when I saw this question the first thing that popped in my head was a meme of this old, ragged barbie doll and the caption said "Me trying to have a career, maintain a social life, drink enough water, exercise, text everyone back, get 8 hrs of sleep etc" LOL I feel like society has made it really tough to be a woman. Although it is challenging, as a woman, I love being able to create & nurture meaningful relationships. I am a people person, so I'm grateful to be in a role that nurtures & builds into people. I like to pre-empt situations and always have a Plan B. I feel like in nutshell this is what being a woman means to me!
Is there a book that really stood out to you over the years that you would recommend to other women?
Daring Greatly by Brene Brown.
Can you recount a time you felt empowered by another woman, who they were, what the event entailed?
Honestly there are just too many to even try to mention just one. I'm really blessed to be surrounded by strong, grounded women of substance.
What are you most looking forward to in 2023 and what’s next for you!
2023 is the last year of my 30's so I'm looking forward to a whole new chapter & welcoming a new decade!

Please note return shipping costs are at the responsibility of the customer.
Any items purchased in our Online Warehouse Sale are final sale and cannot be returned.
If you are unsure if your item meets any of our returns conditions, or in the unlikely event that you have received an incorrect or faulty style, please reach out to our friendly customer care team who will be happy to help! Contact us at orders@girlandthesun.com
All items excluding Sale items, jewellery and swimwearcan be returned for a Refund or Credit Note (e-gift card) if returned to us within 14 days of dispatch for USA customers or 30 days of dispatch for international customers.
In order to return your item, your return must meet the following conditions:
Returns will only be accepted under these conditions. As we quality-control all of our styles before they are sent out, we will inspect all return items upon receipt - any returns which fail to comply with the above will be sent back to you. This policy does not affect your statutory rights.
Please note that while every effort is made to accurately display the colour of our garments, as computer monitors vary, we cannot guarantee that your monitor's display of any colour will be completely accurate.
USA & International customers will be responsible for shipping and handling charges to return unwanted items, unless the item is faulty, then we will cover the return postage. If the package does not reach us, we will not be able to complete the refund, we would recommend sending it via traceable post.
If there is a fault with the style you've purchased, we will offer to repair or replace it where available. If we cannot repair or replace the style, we will offer a refund or store credit. All claims for faulty styles are assessed on an individual basis. The refund will be processed back to the original payment method used to place the order (eg credit card, PayPal, Klarna or store credit).
If you require an exchange for a different size, colour or alternative items, you can return your items (providing they meet the return conditions under What can be returned?) and you will be issued with a credit note or refund to place a new order for your preferred items. Credit Notes have no expiry date.
Due to the fast turnover of stock, we are unable to hold items and therefore cannot guarantee that your preferred size or colour will be in stock at the time of making your purchase.
We will not process returns until your item is physically received by us in our warehouse. Once received, please allow 2-5 business days for your return to be processed. This period may vary during peak times (sale periods, public holidays, Christmas/New Year). Once your return has been processed, you will be notified via email with details of your credit note or, if applicable, a refund.
We quality control our styles before they're sent out to you to ensure they arrive in perfect condition! However, if you believe your garment has a fault, please email our friendly customer service team at orders@girlandthesun.com. Upon receiving your request, we will handle this with high priority to arrange the best possible course of action for you.
