As a single working mom of four children, I was burning the candle on both ends. While I was doing the work I loved as a special educator and parent coach, I was constantly exhausted from my responsibilities. I thought mother was spelled M-A-R-T-Y-R. 

 

My children were struggling with health, learning, and emotional issues. Even though I could help other people, when it came to my own family it felt too big to deal with alone. I began working with a coach but was having trouble following through because I was so overwhelmed.

 

This is when I decided that I had to put the proverbial oxygen mask on myself first. I began learning body based practices for stress relief because I knew I needed a DEEP DIVE into techniques that would renew me and bring me home to myself. If things were going to change in my family, I had to be the source of that change.

 

I began a movement and meditation practice. I was amazed at how giving myself time to recharge physically and mentally gave me a renewed sense of purpose and vitality. The more I was able to regulate myself, the better I was able to parent. I realized that all the parenting strategies in the world aren’t going to be useful if you’re too stressed to use them well.

 

That’s why I created Soulful Mothering. Mothers need a holistic framework to do their invaluable work: tools to manage overwhelm and build emotional and physical resilience, parenting strategies to guide their children through every stage of development and a thriving community so they feel connected and supported. 

 

This is where my story and your story meet. My transformation has deeper meaning if I can help you and your family. I’m committed to guiding you to be the best woman and mother you can be. Together, we can create a legacy of lasting love.
