You’re Not Alone: A Community Connection Conversation for Parents: The other night, something truly special unfolded. Parents came together around a fire, the smell of grilled food in the air, laughter mingling with heartfelt conversation. The setting—Richert Lumber Ace Hardware’s beautiful backyard showroom in Pleasanton, California—was the perfect backdrop for connection.
You’re Not Alone: A Community Connection Conversation for Parents wasn’t about lectures, formulas, or “perfect parenting advice.” It was about slowing down, breaking bread together, and being real. Parenting is full of uncertainty, and yet when we gather in community, something shifts: the weight feels lighter, the hope grows stronger.
You’re Not Alone: A Community Connection Conversation for Parents
Together, we touched on the top five concerns parents told me they struggle with most. In small breakout groups, guided questions gave space for honesty and reflection. Parents leaned in, shared vulnerably, and listened deeply. Then we came back together as a whole group, weaving those threads into a powerful conversation. What emerged was more than answers—it was connection, courage, and the reassurance that no one has to walk this path alone.
The feedback was humbling:
✨ “It was so warm and inviting.”
✨ “I finally felt like I wasn’t alone.”
✨ “I’d love to see you hold more of these.”
Nights like these remind me why I do this work. Parenting is hard, but when we share our stories and learn from one another, it becomes not only lighter but also more meaningful.
This is the heart of my coaching, workshops, and books: guiding families to move away from pressure and perfection, and through my coaching program we move FORWARD toward clarity, connection, and confidence. Because when the root of the problem goes untended, the weeds—eating disorders, ADHD, anxiety, burnout—start to grow. But when we nourish the roots, families thrive.
