Many parents and “parenting experts" get this CO Many parents and “parenting experts" get this COMPLETELY wrong about highly sensitive, empathic, emotionally intense kids: Telling these fiery ones to "calm down" or "stop overreacting" is damaging. For deeply feeling children, their emotions ARE their reality. They’re not being “overly sensitive”. When I was about 8 or 9, the chicken pox was going around. I remember hearing people talk about how itchy and uncomfortable it was and how scratching the pox would lead to scars. Because my body was always more sensitive (meaning, itches felt itchier and a mild cold felt like a flu) I was reallllly nervous about getting chicken pox. One day I wasn’t feeling well and went to the doctor. They ran some tests and called our house a few hours later. (No MyChart back in the 80’s!) Results were in: Chicken pox. I fainted into the plush, blue corduroy sofa in the family room. I was legitimately overwhelmed with fear and anxiety about what was coming. “What a drama queen” “A Sandra Bernhard” “Stop making a big deal out of nothing” These were phrases I heard a lot growing up. Not because my parents didn’t love me— on the contrary, I never went a moment without feeling their love and support. But I also grew up with a twisted understanding of my innate sensitivity. Yes, I’m more intense. More sensitive. More deeply feeling. More— but not "too much". That’s why I do the work I do now. To help parents raise a generation of highly sensitive, empathic, emotionally intense kids that feel GOOD about their “more”. Your love for your kids is not where you need my support. My work is in helping you raise them to stay fiery, sensitive and authentic in world that wants them to be anything else. PS. Here I am, about a year old. Perfectly sensitive and intense 💖

⫸ The impact of your time with your child is mea ⫸ The impact of your time with your child is measured by its quality, not quantity ⫷ Working parents, and especially those navigating high-pressure careers, know the delicate dance of balancing professional demands with family life. I remember coaching a family about 15 years ago and mom shared that she hated playing a particular board with her then 4 year old son. “How many times do I have to play Candyland with him? He loves it and wants to play it over and over again.” I asked her how many times she enjoyed playing it with him. “Once” was her answer. So I suggested she play it once with him, really enjoy it and delight in his sweetness. Then pick something else to do together, or set him up with an activity he could do on his own. Playing Candyland over and over, being annoyed with her son for asking again (and daring to enjoy what she hated!) was actually detrimental to their relationship. ⏰ This is your wake-up call. In the relentless rhythm of career and parenthood, we often miss the most profound moments of connection. I am going to teach you how to leverage those fleeting interactions into meaningful experiences that actually strengthen your bond—without adding more stress to your already packed schedule.

Parents often share their deepest fears with me, t Parents often share their deepest fears with me, trusting me with their most vulnerable thoughts and concerns. I hear the same anxious questions over and over: “When will he outgrow this?” “If she doesn’t learn it now, when will he ever learn?” “If we don’t push him out of his comfort zone, he’ll never succeed as an adult.” These thoughts are more than just worries—they’re actually harmful narratives that can undermine your child’s potential. When you approach your child from a place of doubt and limitation, you’re energetically setting up roadblocks to their growth. I help parents see their child’s unique journey with compassion, curiosity, and unwavering belief in their capabilities. Want to transform how you think about your children? I’m here to help. Let’s dig up the roots of those limiting beliefs and replace them with empowering, loving perspectives that truly honor your child’s potential.
