Let’s raise emotionally intelligent children together
I have bounced around a lot of hobbies, and hobbies as businesses, and it’s come for circle with my purpose, education, hobbies, love for teaching and helping children…
I love helping parents love parenting more & parent with love by looking at challenging behavior as an opportunity to connect and help your child develop social and emotional skills that will serve them for the rest of their life.
It’s not enough to just wing it. It’s not enough to just survive.
Kids need us as coaching for their emotions and for problem solving.
They need us to not tell them what to do, but help them develop the skills to know what to do. It’s time to raise emotionally healthy kids in this increasingly scary world.
I’m a former preschool teacher of 7 years. I had a really hard class one year. I cried. I was stressed. I was worried.
It wasn’t a normal amount of hard. It was EXTREMELY hard. I had been doing this for several years, with far less experience… but now, now I was hitting rock bottom. Threats from parents I loved… Zero support from my boss.
“If this kid does this again and doesn’t get kicked out… we will sue.”
AH. Do you know how hard it is to “control“ a child, especially when you’re getting threats from other parents?
This child was one of my 99. (Luke 15:3-7) Did you know that kids in this situation are given up on ALL the time? These same kids are likely to have social/emotional disorders, drop out of high school, and get into drugs.
I could not leave him behind. But I couldn’t afford to let anything else happen. He was isolated from his peers and stuck with his own personal observer. I was drowning, he was drowning, everyone’s parents were drowning. There had to be a way to understand and support this challenging behavior.
And this is where my story changed.
When I saw the impact of this NEW way, I knew I wasn’t done learning…
I knew that I had to share & support families struggling.
So, I enrolled in grad school 38 weeks pregnant, and have since become… a mother of four, researcher, speaker, podcaster & coach
