Empowered Parenting
Coaching Sessions
What is empowered parenting?
Empowered parenting is the process of finding solutions to everyday parenting concerns and struggles, It's feeling empowered and confident in the decisions you make. Empowered parenting is being aware of your feelings, accepting your feelings and making decisions from that mindset. Does it sound a lot like mindful parenting? Although there is a lot of mindfulness to it, sometimes mindful parenting can feel like one more thing we need to accomplish and succeed in. Empowered parenting is not something we need to succeed in, it is a process led by you, that allows parents and caregivers to have a more fulfilling parenting experience and life!
Who is parent coaching for?

What are some common subjects parent coaches talk to parents/caregivers about?
What is the role of a parent coach?
What is Amy Wagner's (certified parent coach) objective?
Throughout my 20 plus years of teaching and working with families I have heard many families bringing up concerns of kids fighting/arguing, whining, having temper tantrums, not listening etc. In return parents feel frustrated, anger, resort to yelling which leads to guilt and feeling bad. This of course leads to children doing more of the unwanted behavior. I've seen many parents in tears because they feel they are stuck in this vicious cycle. I asked myself how does this cycle end? What came to me was HAPPINESS! All we want as parents is for our children to be happy. How can we expect our children to be happy if we, their parents are not. Parents that are happy have children that are happy! It’s time to teach our children that it’s okay to be happy!
How do we teach that? The best way to teach, is to model it.
Of course, we will talk about your children and what you expect from them, and strategies to use with them, but I think the deeper issue is helping parents feel confident in their parenting skills and decisions which leads to parents feeling more comfortable, at ease and joyful in their everyday lives. It's amazing the shift that happens in your whole life, not just issues concerning your kids, when you are feeling empowered and happy!
