I am a mom to 3 wonderful kids who are all in their teen years now. I fell in love with conscious parenting when I became a step-mom to 2 amazing step-daughters, who were really struggling with the aftermath of a very long and painful divorce. Healing myself, my husband, my son, and my 2 step-daughters became my priority. I wanted to create a family where love, peace, and deep connection are the norm and not the exception.
Applying the work I learned at Jai and my other skills and training allowed me to achieve this goal. I am truly blessed to have the family I have today.
I am an experienced Conscious Parenting Coach, Gottman Certified Educator, and a Certified DIvorce Coach as well.
After working for over 20 years in the corporate world as an IT leader, coach, and emotional intelligence trainer, I realized that my passion was teaching and coaching parents on how to apply emotional intelligence concepts to parenting.
I coach parents of adolescents and those going through separation and divorce on how to uncover and replace their limiting beliefs with deeper self-awareness and more empowering, life-affirming beliefs.
My work incorporates the core principles of positive psychology, human motivation theories, child development research, and brain science. I believe that the sooner people learn emotional intelligence skills, the more fulfilling, meaningful, and successful their lives will be. In order for parents to raise emotionally intelligent children, they have to be willing to learn those core principles themselves.
Parents who are more self-aware, can, in turn, help their children learn emotional awareness and self-regulation. I believe that when parents learn what it means to parent consciously – those ordinary, every-day moments of interaction between them and their children is where extraordinary lessons are learned and the deeper connection is created.
I work with parents one-on-one as well as in group settings
My passion is to help parents deeply understand and connect with their children and to restore creative collaboration, mutual respect, and joyfulness within the family home.
