Enjoy an evening to LIVE it up, LAUGH out loud, and LEARN something new!

What is Live, Laugh, Learn?

Mollie Gross and Kristine Schellhaas are bringing military audiences fresh

perspectives, deployment tools, networking opportunities, and a new

appreciation for our military lifestyle. These two ladies have worldwide fan

bases with two distinctive markets: 1) military spouse and 2) yet to be

recruited to retirees. They use humor, information, and resources to reach

their audiences strategically through social medial, including Facebook,

Twitter, Pinterest, YouTube, and more to connect with the new generation of

military wife.

The vast use of internet and social media has created a smart, media savvy

individual who questions authority, wants 24/7 access, and seeks individuals

speaking their own language. Young spouses are crying out for new leadership

and someone they can relate to for direction.

Audience members will connect emotionally with speakers through laughter and hard-hitting advice

utilizing a dynamic, guided workshop.

Following the workshop presentation, the audience engages in a no-holds bar, funny and upbeat Q&A

session delving into military life, motherhood, relationships and more.

Lastly, individuals connect with new resources, friends, and participate in social interactions with meet

up opportunities and social games.

Bottom Line: Spouses will LAUGH at themselves, LEARN new

resources and tools, and LIVE more fully with the lessons learned.

“All I have to say is thank God for you both. I can’t tell you

how many events I’ve gone to where I’ve been bored out of

my mind and dazing off. How am I supposed to relate to

someone my mother’s age and think that they are going

through the same thing that I’m going through? It’s a harsh

reality, but things change.” MCRD, 2013

“Kristine and Mollie are young military wives and I can

completely relate to them. I love that I can go online and

connect with their funny and honest resources and advice. So

many of the other bloggers sound the same, but Mollie and

Kristine stand out. They make me laugh and understand what

I’m going through today.” Camp Pendleton, 2013

Mollie and Kristine Are

What Happens at the Live, Laugh, Learn Event?

Mollie Gross excites the crowd with humor and shenanigans and then follows with motivational speaking, reflecting on life as a new military spouse, friendship, and an attitude of gratitude. Following Mollie, Kristine Schellhaas shares the heart-wrenching story of her military life, dealing with a sudden loss of a child due to a tragic accident, learning to love and live again, and creating something bigger than herself to help others. Mollie and Kristine will share thirty minutes to an hour each, providing deployment and military life resiliency to fellow military spouses. They’ll also have the opportunity to connect with the speakers with a Q&A panel and/or breakout discussions depending on time.

Loyal following of fans

"Mollie Gross was the perfect addition to OSMF’s 1st annual event, Military

Spouse Appreciation Day 2013, in Portland, Oregon. She had the ability to

bring life, lift spirits and find common ground with spouses that attended

from all Armed Service Branches. She navigated spouses from laughter to

tears and back again, with her uncanny ability to weave humor into a

thoughtful message that skillfully encouraged military spouses, to not only

develop an ‘attitude of gratitude’, but also, to live their dreams! The

spouses walked away inspired from her motivational speaking. Thank you

Mollie Gross! - OSMF (Tara Clark & Alyson Schumacher, Founders)"
