“You cannot get through a single day without having an impact on the world around you. What you do makes a difference, and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make.”

Jane Goodall

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. 

Previously, Michael was the founder of Kit, an AI employee for small business owners, which was acquired by Shopify in 2016. At Shopify, he was a Senior Director of Product and oversaw Partnerships until he left in 2020 to launch his parenting app Maple.

Michael has been recognized by Forbes, Inc Magazine, and Business Insider for his role as an emerging leader and influencer in marketing, tech, and AI.

Outside of the business world, he is a proud father, uncle, brother, son and husband. 

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); and
• How you can use technology to bring more happiness into the home.

Michael is also extremely open about his struggles with anxiety and self-hatred, which is certainly refreshing in the world of filters and edits.

Before we begin, the right bit of inspiration can completely change the trajectory of someone’s life, so if there’s a friend or loved one who needs to hear this episode or could use some help to Win the Day, share it with them right now.
