You may know Erica Ehm as a pioneering “VJ” (video-jockey) on MuchMusic (Canada’s equivalent to MTV) in the 80’s and 90’s, but she is that and so much more!
In this wide-ranging discussion, Erica shares her wisdom on:
- Asking for what you want, the simple strategy that got here started in the competitive entertainment TV business
- How to be an ally for those you love who are struggling with mental health issues
- Her mother’s life-changing words to her at age 8, along with notes from her own parenting journey
- How she told her kids “Mommy comes first”, and it empowered them to know and show respect for women
And more!
If you would like to live a life where you are able to make bold choices and successfully act on them, this is the episode for you!
