I’ll be speaking with Olivia Schmitt. While Olivia and I both wear many hats in this world, I hope every parent out there will join us as we don our most important hat of all: Motherhood. Many of us working moms are overachievers to begin with. Put into a pressure cooker situation where we suddenly feel expected to be the mom, teacher, employee, spouse, friend, etc. etc... ALL AT THE SAME TIME! It's a fast track to burnout and breakdown. Let’s explore the significant mental health challenges that are arising at this time; not just the isolation and distancing but even moreso the expectations we put on ourselves to hyper perform.

Join this conversation with Louise and Jay as they connect with you over your morning coffee, inspire you through storytelling, and provide insight as they take your questions. Communication and body language; one
of their favourite impactful shows; and their thoughts on what's going on in the world right now. You don't want to miss the insight, the banter, and the laughs! Want the Notes & Quotes PDF for this and all other LHR Shows? Join the email list to get it straight

Melanie Perry is a Canadian military wife, trained elementary school teacher, and entrepreneur.
In 2014, Melanie and her husband were eagerly awaiting the birth of their second son AND another military relocation. It was then that she decided that although she had dreamed of being a teacher since her own childhood, teaching in a conventional classroom wasn’t what she wanted for herself anymore. Between many more future moves and raising her two young sons, Melanie set her sights on something out of the box that would allow her to be a constant for her family in a life of change while still fulfilling her own professional goals. Since then, she has dabbled in network marketing, worked as a civilian for the Department of National Defense, volunteered with the Canadian Military Wives Choir and, most recently Ability Dogs Canada, and begun her own work-from-home Virtual Assistant business.
But Melanie’s newest and arguably most exciting journey is the launch of her own one-of-a-kind business, “This Dandelion Life” – an online space and mentorship program for other military spouses and Moms. Combining her passions for teaching, personal development, mindfulness, and the power of “intentional optimism”, Melanie is linking arms with as many incredible women as she can. She is passionate about sharing the lessons she has learned in her 15 years as a military spouse and helping others learn the power of mastering their own mindset.

Yet she was named both the Thunder Bay Chamber of Commerce Business Person of the Year and the Nishnawbe Aski Development Fund Business Woman of the Year in 2016, proving that she knows how to build bridges even in the most challenging of situations.
