This course is designed for anyone interested in learning about children's needs—along with their own—and finding effective ways to meet them.

It is 5 sessions long, each session being 1.5 hours long (1 hour of content, half hour for live Q&A).

Because the information shared in this course is timeless and universal, it applies to children of all ages. I've had parents who are pregnant with their first take this course up to parents who have teens, young adult children and even grandchildren.

With the examples and demonstrations in the course, I make a point to show what it would look like with toddlers, younger children, older children and teens so you can get an idea of how it might apply for different ages. 

You will have access to it for 6 months during which you can watch it as many times as you'd like! 

Don’t worry. We got you covered. All sessions are recorded and participants get access to the recording within 2 hours from when the LIVE session ends for the duration of 6 months. There are people who join from all over the world and only watch the recordings.  It’s the same amazing value whether you watch it live or recorded.

Absolutely! Both parents are welcome to join. When you register, it covers both you and your spouse, if they're interested in participating as well.

No, participants will not be able to see you during the webinar. Only my camera will be visible.

However, if you choose to comment or submit a question, your name will be visible to others. You can always change your name on Zoom to "Anonymous" or any other preferred identifier for anonymity.

Yes, I do!

No, not at all.

I imagine you don't want to walk away from my course feeling like you can't stand firmly for what's important because it might upset your child.

This is not what I advocate for at all. Allow me to explain.

There are two common styles of parenting:

I. Authoritarian: strict rules, an emphasis on obedience and discipline. It typically involves little or no flexibility, limited communication, and a focus on authority and control rather than understanding.

2. Permissive: low on  boundaries and firmness. It typically involves trying to avoid unpleasant emotional reactions and placing a strong emphasis on communication, nurturance and acceptance.

For some of us, in an effort to move away from an authoritarian paradigm where children's feelings were not cared for, we have swung in the opposite direction where we want to avoid bringing up unpleasant feelings in our children altogether because we worry it will hurt them. I have a lot of compassion for that.

Although both these styles are not ideal in their own ways, I think both of these styles have something beautiful to offer.

The energy of authoritarianism can offer strength, a backbone, a firmness and solidness.

The energy of permissiveness can offer nurturance, understanding and attunement.

If we combine the best parts of both of those, we get what I advocate for.

My course is all about becoming super comfortable and acquainted with unpleasant emotions so that nobody has to tiptoe around them! Not you around your children (and not your children around you!).

It's about being the solid, steady, nurturing, attuned parent your child needs.

This is why my course can contribute to those who lean toward authoritarianism and also to those who lean toward permissiveness because I share how each of them can move closer toward a firm + compassionate approach.

My main goal is to empower you with a clear framework so you don't need to rely on memorizing tips and scripts for every situation.

In the 8 years of teaching this course, I've found that practical strategies are also invaluable to parents. That's why I share numerous practical strategies and offer video demonstrations. Additionally, I'm introducing LIVE demonstrations with my sister to illustrate examples in real-time.

However, it's important to note that what I share is not a method. It's not a fixed set of strategies that you must follow. There's ample space for your unique ideas, strategies, and imperfections.

When you join, I ensure this flexibility is clear to you.

Yes you can, but only for the LIVE sessions.

The recordings are only accessible online, through the portal on my website.
