It's more fun when we learn together.

I truly believe that we are all doing the best we can. But, as the great Maya Angelou once said, "When you know better, you do better." Isn't that exactly what it means to be human? The seeking and learning to be better today than we were yesterday.

As parents and educators, we have the highest honor and responsibility to children. It isn't always easy, but you don't have to figure it out on your own. I support parents and educators who are struggling with connection. When children are challenging us with their behaviors, it is hard to always know the right way to respond. We are all in this together, and together we can learn how to foster a connected adult-child relationship without controlling or criticizing.

Whether you are feeling out of sorts in your classroom or in your living room, let's talk. I am here to listen.
