a couple summers back i was at a weekend workshop for women i was sharing how my life is all about finding peace + acceptance within a younger woman looked at me sideways with a bit of judgment like how sweet hippy lady like peace + acceptance were weak later that day i shared more of my life story the young woman got it on a whole new level that peace + acceptance aren't fluffy new-agey dreams but i was like that young woman too for a long time when i first started working with parents i thought a happy home how sweet + trivial like a happy home is surface like a happy home isn't what it's all about but now i know for sure in your happy home your needs are met you are a good parent because your feel like a good parent you believe in yourself and the goodness in your children you believe in here's a step to build your happy home this very week starting today powerfully + simply notice when your home feels most happy when you feel most happy within.... what are you doing? saying? thinking? feeling? and your children too.... when do they seem most happy? what are they doing? what are you doing? what's going on in your home in that moment? then give yourself the gift of doing that very thing feeling that very way thinking that very thought every day (it might seem overly simply yet it's sssooo challenging to make happen) you can do it believe in you believe in your happy home You Got This.p.s. One of the greatest gifts as a parent is to build our happy homes together! Stay tuned for more info about the Happy Home online program this fall.

Hi friends, I write from the heart to tell my life story, and the story of those in my neighborhood called life. Research shows that our children's emotional & mental health is contingent upon us parents being able to tell our life story, or "coherent narrative." This is my coherent narrative, my life story in the making, with some of what I love in life too. My goal is to share my life in a way that is real, uplifting & positive- sometimes serious, sometimes fun. In my practice, I inspire parents to empowerment through reclaiming our life stories and learning respectful discipline. My work is my offering to our children- our future. Wishing you all a happy family! Archives
