Welcome to our final episode of 2024!
This is the first of two 'from the vault' episodes we'll be publishing during the holiday season; the second will be out on 7th January.
If you’re a parent, you’ll know that keeping your family happy, your house organized, and your own stress levels down is almost impossible...
However, our guest today is on a mission to solve that problem once and for all.
Michael Perry is the founder and CEO of tech startup Maple, an acronym for Make All Parents Lives Easier. After becoming a father in 2020, Michael launched Maple as a free mobile app to change the world of parenting and have your home running like a well-oiled machine.
Already, Maple has partnered with more than 70 brands and has more than 80,000 users in the US and Canada alone.
Michael is also extremely open about his struggles with anxiety and negative self-talk, which is certainly refreshing in the world of filters and facades.
In this episode:
• The biggest contributors to household stress and conflict
• How to balance business with family
• The biggest mistakes parents make (and how to fix them)
• How you can use technology to bring more happiness into the home.
