Point Cook mum Michelle Gardiner credits daughters Chloe, 7, and Teagan, 5, with encouraging her to follow her passion for singing and performing.
She first took to the stage after signing up for the Best of the West Talent Quest in 2013 and hasn’t looked back since.
Now Ms Gardiner is taking part in Point Cook’s Universal School of Music’s artist development program, which will train her as a writer and musician.
Ms Gardiner regularly performs around Point Cook and Williamstown and hopes to inspire other mothers to follow their dreams.
