Genie helped me do a lot of self reflection and rethink the things I was telling myself. I looked forward to our conversations and always felt centered and ready to take things on when we were done. Genie is an attentive listener and did an excellent job making me feel heard in a very authentic way. She helped me appreciate my kids even more and reminded me that I know what I’m doing. After coaching I have clarity about my parenting priorities and some new systems in place that are helpful to me.

Parent Coaching improved my communication. I am more intentional and mindful when I speak to my children. I definitely learned better ways to respond to situations (again, being mindful). I was able to step outside my body for a brief moment and really analyze the goal of the conversation, which resulted in a calmer, happier family dynamic.

Transitions in our lives often have big impacts on our family. Genie was my cheerleader who helped me have “more life” in my retirement days. Her excellent questions renewed my enthusiasm for being in the “sandwich generation” with caring for my elderly parents and loving my grandchildren. I learned to create action steps to take better care of myself so I would have the daily energy to be present for my family.

I absolutely loved working with Genie for parent coaching. I did 10 sessions with her over the course of a few months, and she let me make them just what I needed. She never made me feel bad for my parenting “fails”, but helped me realize what was working well and how to grow that. During our time together, I was able to be a lot more present with my kids and just in general in my role as a mother and person in this world. Parenting can feel so lonely these days, but working with Genie I didn’t feel alone, and that was gold. She had a lovely structure to the sessions, but with a lot of freedom and flexibility for me to schedule and structure them to suit my needs, style, and personality. I highly recommend working with Genie!
