Nurture & Nourish Group Coaching Program
Fall 2020
We are all doing our very best, especially right now, to show up as the parents we want to be.
And, we are challenged now more than ever.
Many of us are homeschooling. Putting work on hold. Worried about staying healthy. Forced to stay indoors because of wildfire smoke, and distanced because of COVID. Managing the feelings of every member of our household, including our own.
And getting little to no self-care when we need it so much.
The things that can truly help us when we are struggling—time to be listened to, to fall apart, to ask questions, to feel we’re not alone—are the very things that are in such short supply right now.
I want to help you find a way to get what we are all needing.
This fall, I invite you to join me for a special three-month group coaching program designed to support you as a parent in these uniquely challenging times.
Who This Program is For
This three-month coaching program is for you if:
You have one or more children under 12 years old
You feel drawn to learning with and from other parents who also want to be the best parents they can be, even when it’s hard
You could use some new tools to meet the big feelings and behaviors coming up with your child/ren, as well as manage your own triggers
You deeply wish to receive some nurturing right now, rather than feeling tired out, overwhelmed, or pushed beyond your limits by the demands of parenting and living in current times
You want to find more ease and joy in your parenting and your inner being
Program Format
This program is a small, three-month group coaching program designed to give you space to offload your worries, to ask questions, and to learn with and from other thoughtful parents.
I am limiting the group to a maximum of 10 parents to ensure that we can build a strong community and everyone has time to share and be heard.
Dates & Times
We will have group coaching calls twice a month, on the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of each month, beginning on October 13 and ending on December 22, 2020. Dates are:
October 13, 2020
October 27, 2020
November 10, 2020
November 24, 2020
December 8, 2020
December 22, 2020
These group calls will run for 75 minutes each, from 8:00–9:15pm Pacific*, unless the group collectively prefers a different time.
We will also have twice-monthly pop-up Q&A calls where I will address participants’ specific questions about parenting (times TBD based on the wishes of the group). All calls will be recorded for the group’s use only.
* Interested in joining but can’t make the times work? Contact me to discuss!
Additional Details
Six 75-minute group coaching calls (two/month), each featuring:
A short guided meditation to ground and center you
A specific theme for each call to help you consider one aspect of your parenting. Themes will include:
Behaviors that challenge you;
Meeting big feelings (your children’s and your own);
Managing your triggers as a parent;
Getting ahead of difficult times with your child/ren;
Tools for deepening your connection with your child/ren even when time is scarce; and
Topics generated by the group.
Listening time for each parent to be heard on what is swirling that week with your parenting and life in general
Thoughtful readings and writing prompts designed to help you work with your particular parenting blocks
Six pop-up Q&A calls (two/month), featuring:
Time to ask questions and receive feedback from me about your specific parenting challenges
The opportunity to learn from other parents’ questions and thinking
Access to a private Facebook community designed to help you connect and share with parents in the group
Recordings of all calls for you to return to as needed
Help with setting up a listening partnership with another parent for ongoing support with your parenting
What You Will Leave Behind
Feeling alone, isolated, and/or stuck in your parenting
Holding in your feelings, worries, and questions about parenting
The need to maintain the illusion of “keeping it all together” in a time when it feels as if so much is falling apart
Looping on parenting challenges that you can’t find the time or energy to address
What You Will Receive
Regular practice with a respectful-parenting framework that is rooted in the truth of your children’s essential goodness, and yours as a parent
Connection with other caring, like-hearted parents on this journey
Dedicated time to reflect and work on your parenting
The opportunity to receive your own nurturing and nourishment for three months
Community, laughter, and three full months of recharging your batteries for the hard work of parenting
“I swear, every time I have a session or class with you, things get so much more easeful in my parenting. ”
Investment
I’m offering this three-month period of coaching, community, and inner work for three payments of $249 (billed monthly), or a single payment of $672 (due before we begin on October 13).
Are you ready to carve out a little time just for you this fall? Time to think, to feel, to grieve, to celebrate, and to learn? To be the one who gets nurtured for a little while?
