Layer Cake Framework

{process of transformation}

Think of this coaching journey as building a layer cake together - in every session, we'll mix and fold in bits of each yummy layer.

From understanding your parenting style to discovering what works for your unique family, each layer adds something special to your toolkit. You'll build confidence, find more ease with your little one, and learn to trust yourself more deeply. And just like baking, it's totally okay if things get messy along the way!

We'll explore what works best for you. No need to master everything at once - some days you'll nail it, other days... not so much (and that's gorgeously human). Because real parenting isn't a straight line - it's an adventure we'll navigate together, one multi-flavored bite at a time.

✦

here’s a breakdown:

✦ Clarify Your Mindset ✦

Start showing up as the parent you want to be, without the guilt trip. We'll uncover what truly matters to your family (your values!) and create simple house "rules" that everyone gets. Think of it as crafting your family's unique vibe - no cookie-cutter parenting required.

✦ Trust Your Body's Wisdom ✦

Y’know that gut feeling you get during tough moments with your kid? That's actually your body's built-in GPS trying to help you parent better. We'll decode what's really happening in your body during those challenging moments (like epic meltdowns) and use those signals as your parenting superpower.

✦ Keep It Real ✦

Let's be honest - parenting is hard and you're doing your best. By practicing self-compassion and understanding your own triggers, you'll naturally build a stronger bond with your kid. When you can acknowledge your own struggles without judgment, you'll start seeing your child's big feelings in a whole new light - no "perfect parent" pressure required.

✦ Notice the Little Things ✦

Catch those subtle hints before the storm hits (in both you and your kiddo). No more feeling blindsided by meltdowns! We'll practice being a stress detective without the mental drama - seeing what's actually going down versus what your inner critic is saying about it. Think of it as developing your parenting spidey-sense.

✦ Walk the Walk ✦

Here's the thing about kids: they're like tiny behavior mirrors. When you learn to handle your own big feelings with grace (using simple body-based tricks we'll discover together), your little one will pick up these skills naturally. No lectures needed - just real-life showing up. Because let's face it, actions speak way louder than "use your words!"

✦ Find Your Flow ✦

This is where the magic happens. Just like I'm creating a judgment-free zone for you to figure this stuff out, you'll naturally start doing the same for your kid. It's like a positive parenting domino effect - the more curious and compassionate you are with yourself, the easier it becomes to ride the waves of your child's emotions. That's when parenting starts feeling less like a battle and more like a dance.

✦ Set Up Your Space for Success ✦

Let's clarify your parenting environment! Through our detective work, we'll spot what's causing chaos (like that overwhelming toy tsunami) and what's helping your kid thrive. Small tweaks to your space and routines can make a huge difference in everyone's stress levels. Think of it as creating your family's chill zone - but make it practical.

✦ Uncover Your Hidden Superpowers ✦

You've already got way more parenting tools than you realize. We'll dig through your mental toolbox and find all those genius moments when you've handled tough situations like a boss. No need to reinvent the wheel - let's build on what's already working! Because sometimes the best solutions are already in your back pocket.

✦ Keep What Serves You ✦

Time for some honest spring cleaning of your parenting approaches. What strategies actually feel good and get results? What "should-do's" are just making you feel worse? We'll create your personalized parenting playbook that fits YOUR family's vibe - not some random internet expert's idea of perfect parenting. Think of it as curating your greatest hits album of parenting wins, or a treasure map of your own magical gems.

✦ Pause & Reflect on Your Wins ✦

Take a breath and see how far you've come! When you learn to hit pause and reflect (even for just a hot second), those chaotic parenting moments become way more manageable. No more getting swept away in the storm - you've got this, and I’ll prove it to you.

✦ Own Your Parenting Style ✦

Forget what your mother-in-law or that random Instagram mom says - YOU know your kid best. We'll help you find your parenting voice and rock it with confidence. Because when you trust your gut and parent from your values, amazing things happen. Think of it as finding your authentic parenting magic.

✦ Pop the Bubbly (or Sparkling Juice) ✦

Real talk: Science shows gratitude is like a happiness superpower. So let's celebrate EVERYTHING - from keeping your cool during an epic tantrum to finally getting everyone out the door with both shoes on. No win is too small for a dance party! When you learn to spot and celebrate your daily parenting wins (messy bun and all), you'll naturally slow down and remember why you started this journey. Because #ParentingWins deserve their own highlight reel.
