Why I Became a Parent Coach

Becoming a parent changes you. It softens parts of you that you didn’t know needed softening. It exposes parts of you that you didn’t know were wounded. And it awakens a love so deep, it shifts the direction of your entire life. For years, I thought parenting was about “doing it right. ” Being perfect. Never slipping. Never showing weakness. Never letting my kids see the cracks. But God has a way of showing up in the middle of the mess to show us the very places we try to hide are the places He wants to transform.

And the truth is—our kids have been my greatest teachers.

They taught me how much healing I still needed.
They mirrored my nervous system back to me.
They showed me the cost of fear-based parenting.
They revealed every place I was carrying old wounds, old beliefs, old ways of reacting.

And through that, God whispered something I didn’t expect:

“You can break this cycle.
You can create a new way.
And one day, you will help others do the same.”

That whisper became a calling.

A Journey from Survival Mode to Connection

There was a time when yelling felt like the only tool I had.
A time when perfectionism pushed me harder than compassion ever did.
A time when I buried my emotions and expected my kids to do the same.

But the more I learned about the nervous system and emotional regulation…
The more I understood anxiety, ADHD, and sensory needs… The more I listened to what our kids were truly communicating.

…the more I realized that our children did not need perfect parents.
They need connected parents.
Regulated parents.
Healing parents.

So, I began doing the work:

✔ Healing my own inner heart
✔ Becoming more patient, calm, and grounded
✔ Understanding neurodivergent wiring
✔ Rebuilding safety and connection in our home
✔ Choosing heart-centered parenting over fear-based parenting

And as our home transformed…
as our kids blossomed… as God continued to soften me… I knew this wasn’t just for me.

It was meant to be shared.

The Mental Health of Our Youth Is Declining—And Parents Need Support

Everywhere I look, kids are struggling:

Anxiety.
Overwhelm. Overscheduled.
Self-doubt.
Pressure to perform.
Fear of failure.
Nervous system dysregulation.
RSD.
Sensory overload.
Identity confusion.
School stress.
Social stress.

Our children are drowning in expectations that their nervous systems aren’t built for.

Parents are trying—but they are overwhelmed, exhausted, and unsure.

And we cannot heal the mental health of our children until we first heal ourselves.

Parents set the emotional climate of the home. Kids mirror our nervous systems, our beliefs, our pace, our peace.

This generation NEEDS more heart-centered parents.
Parents who are regulated.
Parents who understand neurodivergence.
Parents who see behavior as communication.
Parents who parent with compassion AND boundaries.
Parents who lead with intention, not fear. That is why I became a parent coach.

God Called Me to This Work

And I couldn’t truly connect with our kids until I reconnected with myself — my heart, my story, my values, and my God. He has called me to write this blog in hopes to shine a light on hearts and bring more awareness and healing to families around the world. After all it starts with us, with healing the parts of ourselves that feel unseen, unheard, or unworthy. With slowing down long enough to remember who we are beyond the roles we carry. Let me say that again, with slowing down enough to remember who we are. Like a rebirth to go deeper and to heal parts of our soul that we never even knew existed but is always there waiting to be unraveled.

There is no other way to explain it.

Every step…Every struggle… Every breakthrough…Every moment of grace…

…it has all led me here.

To remind parents that they are not alone.
To help families break generational cycles.
To help children grow up in homes that feel safe and connected.
To help parents become the calm, confident, heart-centered guides their children deserve.

And to remind them of this truth:

“For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind.”—2 Timothy 1:7

Parenting is holy work.
It is generational work.
It is legacy work.

And I am here—called, equipped, and committed—to walk alongside every parent who is ready to rise into the parent God designed them to be. The greatest honor of my life is being a Mama, and what our future generation needs more than ever right now are calm, rooted, loving, anchored parents. I invite you to rise up and remember you are their safe harbor and you are not alone in this journey. - The Heart Centered Parent-
