Empowering parents with behaviorally challenging children to create new possibilities through Mindful-Ish™ Parenting strategies.

When the going gets tough, it is easy to become either a) the parenting monster or b) the parenting doormat.
In Mindful-Ish™ Parenting, 20% of the effort yields 80% of the results. You can get big results from just that little bit of awareness - the 20%.
There is no perfect way to parent, and putting pressure on yourself to be mindful in every situation is unrealistic. This belief is a sure ticket onto the "Not Enough Train" to Nowhere. That is why I've developed Mindful-Ish™ Parenting: to take us out of the far-off land of "should" and bring us back to "what is." Mindful-Ish™ Parenting is about your awareness of how you interact with your kids, the energy you be when you parent them, and choosing new possibilities.

KIND WORDS FROM HAPPY HUMANS!
"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
