This will be such a great resource for my family. We did the first lesson this week and the girls especially loved the video and activity. Short and sweet, with real life application. My 7 year old is having a hard time expressing and accepting feelings and I’m hopeful that this will help her. Thanks!

Meet Whitney!
I’m a wife, mama of four, a wellness and life coach, and a self-help junkie. I’m passionate about creating peace and connection in our own home. It takes the right combination of intentional tools and a good ol' plan and I’m excited to share with you what we’ve learned along the way.
After working with a variety of parents and children, and in talking to neighbors and friends dealing with similar issues, I wanted to supply families with an at-home lesson plan to build a foundation of emotional intelligence in the family.
The concepts are breakthroughs even for adults, but are simple and effective. As the family builds emotional vocabulary, awareness, and then balance, problem solving feels easier, communication comes naturally, and connection is innate.
Rest assured, the atmosphere of the home and family can turn to more peace and connection…
and I can help!
Through this work, you can help your kids to manage stress, communicate effectively, and overcome challenges that arise.
