Live Courses
Learning what to DO comes from learning how to BE.
My courses offer tools to help discover how to be. You learn to bring clear intentions and core values to your parenting challenges. Powerful shifts happen when we stop focusing on the problem and rather focus on intention. This creates a mindful response rather than impulsive reaction.
