Season 3 Episode #31 Michelle DeKeyser is coming from Franklin, Wisconsin (inform, inspire, & transform)
You can find Michelle via her website: connectingmamas.com (great site with an incredible blog…)
About our guest: Michelle is a wife and mom of three kids who participated in various mom groups, ran a few, even joined some book clubs, but envisioned something different as she found herself looking around still wondering what did she like to do that didn’t involve the kid’s activities. As she worked to discover her own passions, she realized that there is no one size fits all program, but the true key to figuring out your passion and making your goals happen is finding connection in a supportive environment.
Michelle envisions connecting mamas by building a support system to remove the loneliness and isolation that can be felt in motherhood. She holds a MA in education, spent 8 years in the classroom, and traveled around the world for 13 months before starting her own family and becoming a stay-at-home mom.
Michelle, thanks for dedicating your life to help mother’s and families all over the world and thanks for being our guest on Life’s Essential Ingredients – welcome to the show!
TOTD – “To put the world in order we must first put the nation in order; to put the nation in order we must first put the family in order; to put the family in order, we must first cultivate our personal life; we must first set our hearts right.” Confucius
