About This coach
Julie is a certified Jai Institute Transformational Parenting Coach, incoming Clinical Mental Health Counseling graduate student at Seattle University, and the founder of Prepairent, a coaching practice dedicated to preparing mothers before parenthood begins.
With a lifetime of experience working with families as a sister, nanny, parent, and now coach, a background in journalism, and years of her own deep therapeutic work, Julie brings a rare combination of professional training, lived experience, and genuine humanity to her coaching. She knows what it feels like to want to show up differently than you were shown, and she has done the work to get there.
Julie specializes in prenatal and perinatal coaching, working with expecting mothers from pregnancy through the fourth trimester and beyond. Her approach is warm, grounded, and deeply practical, rooted in nervous system science, emotional intelligence, mindset coaching, nonviolent communication, and the PEACE Process.
She is also a mother of two, a Boston Marathon qualifier/finisher, a daily yoga practitioner, and a DJ under the name Frissonne, because she believes that a regulated, joyful parent is the greatest gift a child can receive.
Preparing you before parenthood begins.
What Makes THEM Special?
What makes me special as a Jai Parenting Coach is the combination of who I am and what I have lived. I am a cycle-breaking single mother who has undertaken years of her own therapeutic work, navigated a high-conflict co-parenting situation with grace, and raised two children in a dual-language school while simultaneously running a 20-year real estate career and completing this certification. I know what it feels like to be exhausted, triggered, and desperately wanting to do better. I also bring a journalism instinct, the ability to listen for the story beneath the story, and a warmth and humor that makes the hardest inner work feel a little less heavy. I don't coach from a textbook. I coach from life.
