Empowering parents & educators of behaviorally challenged children to create new possibilities through Mindful-Ish® Parenting & Education.

COACH FRANNY

FOR PARENTS

FOR EDUCATORS

Mindful-Ish® uses mindfulness, breathwork, and small behavior shifts to help parents and educators develop the skills they need to feel calm, capable, and confident in everyday challenges with their children.

Coach Franny uses art, movement, and other play-based techniques to help behaviorally challenged children develop the skills they need to practice self-regulation and understand their self-worth.

These two approaches work together to help parents and children meet in the middle to communicate their needs and grow together as a family.

Meet Coach Franny

As a parent and educator, I work to empower parents and teachers to feel calm, capable, and confident when faced with challenges at home and in the classroom. With over 25 years of experience working with challenging children in both clinical and classroom settings, I draw from my own experiences as a parent to teach conscious parenting skills, mindfulness techniques, and social-emotional learning. By developing these skills, parents and educators can problem-solve and create new possibilities with their children. My mission is to help others become the best versions of themselves so that they can support the children in their lives to grow into conscious, resilient human beings in our ever-changing world.

Mindful-Ish® Parent Talks & professional development

"Parenting is something we’re thrown into with zero training or prior experience. In the beginning, we’re dealing with stresses like breastfeeding, napping etc…. Which are usually medical related and can be helped via a doctor. Then your baby gets older and starts developing as a toddler and all of a sudden they are doing and saying things and reacting to things that you have no clue how to deal with! Franny literally gave us the foundation and tools with which to parent our children and teach them how to communicate, self regulate, and cooperate. It’s a lifetime work and is never easy but when you have the right methods and understanding, you feel so much more empowered as a parent to help your child succeed in life and to ENJOY your children!"

- parent of a challenging child

"Coach Franny has helped me see my role as a school leader through a different lens. Through our coaching sessions, I have been able to create a platform for staff members to be active participants and have a voice in developing our school culture and strategic plan."

- Janet Morales, Principal, New Renaissance Middle School

“You are a gift! Keep sharing your brilliance and continue to let your light shine bright! Anyone who has an opportunity to work with you is truly blessed.” 

- Founder of Growth With Us Academy LLC and a Conscious Discipline Certified Instructor

"Thank you for the excellent advice. It helps a great deal to have real steps to take to help me change my attitude and work with my son. You are a gift to my family." 

- Mother of 13-year old son, Fort Lauderdale
