meet our mumpreneurs

Mel Keating

“I have five young children ranging from 4-11 years, so I need to be able to work smart! My Lorraine Lea Business allows me to earn a better income than any 9-5 job ever had, with the extra bonus of working my own hours around our family life. Personally, I have developed immensely over the past 12 months, thanks to the guidance and support from other women in our wonderful company! I’ve never been happier!” 

Favourite way to spend Mother’s Day?
“My ideal Mother’s Day would be floating around the Whitsundays in our boat with the kids & my partner Greg.”  

Mandy Ingenito

As a solo mum of two (17 and 11 years), Lorraine Lea has allowed me to have the flexibility to come and go as needed. I’ve never had to pay exorbitant childcare fees or miss out on any important milestones or school events with my kids. I’ve also been able to attend appointments with my daughter, who has special needs, without having to worry about how much time I need to take off. Being my own boss is the best, and I wouldn’t have it any other way! Fifteen years in the business, and I’m here to stay.

Favourite way to spend Mother’s Day?
“Spending the day out on the family farm with my 2 children, Mum, Dad, 2 brothers, sister, niece and nephews!”

Vicki Callaghan

I started with Lorraine Lea 7 years ago.

I was feeling very housebound and had lost myself in motherhood with my three young boys. I joined to reconnect with myself and find my confidence again but couldn’t have dreamed where it would take me! I love that I’m a living example to my boys of how dedication and consistency can give you all you desire, and because my business allows me to work when it suits our family, I don’t miss a thing!

Favourite way to spend Mother’s Day?
“A road trip exploring our beautiful state!”

Julia Knezevic

I feel totally blessed for finding Lorraine Lea almost 13 years ago. Direct selling has given me the flexibility to retire from teaching and stay at home with my children, who are now 13 and 14 years old. I love that I have been able to be there for them whilst growing up and haven’t had to miss any of their important milestones. With my son now travelling to the other side of Melbourne to his soccer academy and my daughters’ busy sports and social life, they still need me more than ever! I’m so grateful that I work my own hours and can schedule my business around my family life.

Favourite way to spend Mother’s Day?
“Sneaking out with the hubby and kids for breakfast, then spending the rest of the day with my Mum and my Mother-in-law, and ending the day snuggled on the couch with the kiddies!”

Jenna Woodall

“I’m a mum to four beautiful kids. As you can imagine, life can be a little crazy most days – but I wouldn’t change it for the world! What started as a little side hustle just over nine years ago has turned out to be a complete lifestyle change! Being a stay-at-home mum and contributing to the household finances, family holidays, and special occasions is a dream come true. I never miss out on my babies’ milestones and run my own successful Lorraine Lea business from home. This is work-life balance at its best!”

Favourite way to spend Mother’s Day?
“A sleep in, breakfast in bed, receiving my kid’s homemade cards and a relaxing day enjoying the company of my family.”
