NEW TOOLS. BETTER RESULTS.

If you’re a parent, you already know that kids can have some BIG emotions. And when this happens, it can be frustrating for both the kids and the parents.

When emotions get too big on both sides, rarely is there a good outcome that doesn’t involve some major mom guilt.

But what if we could learn to take a pause, understand what is happening, and have tools to defuse the situation rather than ignite it?

During this session, you will learn how to track your emotions, understand when your child is getting outside their “sweet spot”, and equip yourself with a handful of ideas on how to express and release the emotions that are coming up!

Until now.

Developed by a single mom who felt like she was failing because she was yelling at her kids, The Six Steps will show you how to go from frustrated and yelling to calm, confident, and connected.
