Helena-Reet Ennet (32) doesn’t have thick skin. The entertainment journalist and Ohmygossip Couture fashion brand developer, who has daughters Estella-Elisheva (4) and Ivanka-Shoshana (2) with her CFO spouse Margus Pärn, admits she finds it hard to ignore insults directed at her from anyone.
“I am not stronger than anybody else. I feel everything that happens to me, whether it’s a mean comment from a friend or a stranger,” she said.
“Nobody likes getting criticized. If somebody has slammed a business I’ m involved with, of course I feel sad. The natural reaction is to fight back but fighting back with the same sort of negativity is childish or even naive, I think. If I see something that has really annoyed me, I’ll just have a walk or go and make a coffee and think about things before replying. If they have a valid point I’ll engage but if they are just out to cause negative damage for no valid reason I’ll just step back and leave it.”
“I’ve learned that I respect people less when they yell or scream. So when I am mad, I try to keep the volume level of my voice really even. It’s more impressive if you can remain calm. I just hate the idea of taking my emotions out on other people.”
Meanwhile, the 32-year-old socialite also tells that it is important to grow spiritually. “In our hearts we all know where we’re going wrong in our spiritual studies. Usually it is because we do not want to do the work of correction that progress requires. But what many of us don’t understand is that if we don’t do the “work” then we’ll keep repeating the same lesson until we get it right.”
“Everything starts at home! The faith, commitment and devotion we raise our children with plays a fateful role in the history, it shapes both our childrens´and our history. We have a great responsibility towards our children as they take after us while they form their own picture of the world around them. The time we devote to our children and our family is always used in the best possible way ever!”
