My Story

"There are two gifts we should give our children.  One is roots. The other is wings." ~ Unknown

"Parenthood is easy — until you become a parent."

​​​​​​

When I became pregnant, I did what so many of us do: I devoured parenting books, articles, and resources, determined to get it “right.” Friends lovingly called me a supermom or tiger mom, and at the time, I wore those labels proudly.

​

But when I stepped into motherhood—especially as a stay-at-home mom without nearby family support—the reality was far from what I had envisioned. I adored my spirited toddler, yet I often felt overwhelmed, depleted, and isolated. Despite my best intentions, I found myself constantly at odds with my child. The family life I had dreamed of felt out of reach. And unlike a job, there’s no stepping away from motherhood. The weight of that left me feeling really helpless.

​​​

The truth was, I had the knowledge. But in the heat of the moment—when I was exhausted or triggered—it all vanished, and frustration took over. I didn’t like the mother I was becoming. Something had to change.

​

In early 2020, I discovered conscious parenting—and with it, a new way forward. That choice sparked a deep inner journey, one that continues to transform me every single day. The shift in myself, my parenting, and my relationship not just with my child but also in other relationships in my life was profound. And it inspired me to pursue a career in parent coaching, so I could walk alongside other parents on their own journeys.

​

Today, I support parents and caregivers who want to parent with greater intention, connection, and peace. I create a compassionate space for them to untangle old patterns, cultivate self-awareness, and step into the calm, confident leaders their families need.

 

I believe that when we parent from empathy, trust, and clarity, we give our children a solid foundation to truly thrive. But that begins with us—the inner work we do frees our children to become their own best version.

​

If you’re ready for support, know this: you are not alone. I would be honored to walk this path with you. I invite you to book a complimentary 45-minute call. I’d love to hear your story.
