A Parenting Posse

Right now, most parents are expressing parenting is not particularly fun. Feeling like you are a good parent has always been a challenge without the extra hardships and concerns we’re facing in our world today. Not only kids, but adults are experiencing feelings and emotions that are extremely hard-to-have and everyday news and events can feel daunting.

I get it!  I am a parent of two young kids and I could not survive without my crew. Even as a social worker and parenting coach I could not travel this journey without my own posse who let me know I am not alone and who I turn to for help. 

You will gather your posse and join me for LIVE Online Coaching Sessions with your biggest parenting concerns and challenges and get doable tools to make things better immediately.

Your Posse will be given keys to:

• Reduce overall parental anxiety when your kid is going through a “rough patch.”

• Unlock your child’s inner world so they will talk to you about feelings and connect deeply with you about how they see themselves and the world.

• Learn tips and tricks to create incredibly close relationships with your kids and loved ones.

• Gain new and effective ways to respond to challenging behaviors that work.

• Experience being at your best self when you feel emotional.

• Feel more connected and closer to your co-parent.

How the Posse Works

The parent posse model works because it’s designed so YOU are in charge of what you want to learn and when you want to meet.  Some groups like to ZOOM once a week and some like to space it out. (Ex:  Meet once a week or once a month)

To begin the journey, each parent will receive the Family Feeling Starter Kit which includes 7 simple recipes that are relevant and accessible so that you can turn right around and be with your kids in an entirely new way to manage the challenging behaviors and stress that come with raising kids. Your recipe’s will be personalized to what YOUR posse is looking for in order to create happier kids and a happier home life.

What else is covered at each session?

We will address and hone in on what it is that keeps you up at night as a parent. These points of focus will be considered “hot topics.” Each discussion will focus on real-life challenges and provide effective tools so you can turn around and create a greater positive home life.

Here are what parents are saying that has them rightfully worried as they see kids who:

• Are on their technology too much.

• Feeling the negative effects of social isolation from Covid.

• Feel confused and angry that other parents let their kids do stuff you don’t want your kids to do.

• Talking back and saying hurtful things to family members when they are upset.

• Using more negative self-talk and falling apart more easily when frustrated and disappointed.

• Are fighting louder and more frequently with their siblings.

• Getting quiet and looking less interested overall.

“When Nina shows up for you, she really shows up, fully there, listening, problem solving and empathizing. She helped us with our son, yes, by giving us developmental context and advice, but also by calming us down and normalizing things we were panicked about. She’s just wonderful. I can’t recommend her work and guidance enough.”

Each posse will have one parent who is responsible for organizing the other 4 to 8 parents. Meet up with your Posse weekly or monthly depending on what fits your life demands.

Once your group has its schedule and hot topics you are ready to begin. 

All members will receive and email confirmation, including links to access the ZOOM sessions.
