How I Found Quietly Glorious – And Why It Feels Like Home
My Everyday Struggles
Being a mum means wearing a hundred different hats every single day. I’m the cook, the driver, the nurse, the cleaner, the referee, and the cheerleader. And while I love my family more than anything, some days I feel completely invisible. Like I’m just the one holding everything together in the background while the world rushes on without noticing.
Discovering Quietly Glorious
One night, after a particularly exhausting day, I was mindlessly scrolling on my phone when I stumbled across Quietly Glorious on social media. Their posts were different—mysterious, yes, but also strangely addictive. There was something about the way they spoke that felt like they were describing me. Showing up every day. Quietly doing the hard work. Carrying so much without recognition.
It was like someone had finally put words to my life.
The First Conversation
I left a comment under one of their posts, just to say how much it meant to me. To my surprise, one of the young women behind the brand replied. Not just a quick “thanks” either—she actually reached out to thank me personally. What followed was a genuine conversation about Quietly Glorious and what it stood for.
That moment was when I fell in love with more than a brand—I felt like I’d found a community.
Becoming Part of QG
When the website finally went live, I registered immediately. Since then, I’ve bought a few pieces: hoodies, tees, and a cap that’s become part of my everyday life. But they’re more than just clothes. Each piece feels like a badge of quiet strength, a reminder that even in the chaos of motherhood, I’m still showing up.
The Unexpected Surprise
Just the other day, I opened an email that nearly brought me to tears. It said a small credit had been added to my account “just to say thank you” for being part of the journey. But the best part? It was signed by the same young woman I’d first spoken to months ago. She remembered me. She hadn’t just moved on to the next comment—she remembered my story, and she made me feel seen.
Sharing the Story
Now, when people stop me to ask where I got my hoodie, or what “Quietly Glorious” means, I don’t just say it’s a clothing brand. I tell them this story. Because Quietly Glorious isn’t just apparel—it’s a reminder that people like me, mums like me, are quietly glorious every single day.........................................Janine M. (Newcastle)
