The holidays don’t overwhelm kids because they’re “being dramatic.”

They overwhelm kids because their little nervous systems are begging for a moment to breathe.

New faces, loud houses, changed routines, late nights, and “performing” for guests can send even the most regulated child into shutdown, clinginess, or big behavior.

And parents often wonder: “Why is my child melting down when we’re supposed to be having fun?”

This is why I teach families to build in tiny pockets of play and connection — the moments your child will remember long after the guests leave.

- A walk outside
- A quiet book break
- Blocks on the floor

Small rituals that create safety, regulation, and joy.

If you want more simple, brain-based tips for the holiday season, follow along — I share tools that help you protect your child’s peace and your own.

I built a business my younger self would feel safe in.

Not one that runs on burnout, urgency, or proving myself—
but one rooted in play, connection, and joy.

For years I stayed in spaces where shrinking was the expectation.
Being the “strong one” was survival, not alignment.
Stepping into entrepreneurship wasn’t about ambition—it was about healing.

My VoyageKC feature shares more of that story: the burnout, the shift, the grief, and the clarity that came when I stopped asking systems for permission.

If you read it, let me know what part resonates with you—not as a “therapist,” but as a human who’s reclaiming their own joy.

I didn’t start my business to “be my own boss.”

I started it because I got tired of shrinking to fit places that never had room for all of me.

This year has been one long homecoming—creativity back, rest back, alignment back. And now, my story was featured in Voyage KC, where I shared how I built my practice around something I call Joy Revenge.

Not revenge as in outworking or proving anything to anyone.
Revenge as in: choosing joy, peace, capacity, and wholeness after seasons that tried to take them.

In the interview, I talked about:

- Building a boutique therapy + coaching practice rooted in nature, play, and relational healing
- Honoring my nervous system instead of overriding it
- Creating work that feels soulful and sustainable, not performative or exhausting

Entrepreneurship isn’t a grind for me—it's part of how I found myself again.

There’s an inner child in all of us — the part that still longs to feel safe, seen, and enough.

As I sit in my play therapy office, surrounded by stories and symbols of healing, I’m reminded that joy isn’t something we stumble upon. It’s something we slowly rebuild — through connection, curiosity, and compassion.

That’s what inspired The Joy Revenge Booklist — a collection of books that nurture emotional growth, reflection, and play for adults, caregivers, and families alike.

Each title invites us to pause, breathe, and reconnect with the parts of ourselves we’ve been too busy to notice.

This project is deeply personal — inspired by my two little ones, who remind me daily that healing often begins with a good story and a safe space to be ourselves.

I don’t know about you, but I love when a book checks both boxes—heart and simplicity.

The Next Conversation by is that kind of book 🔑

It’s the one that helps you notice when you’re talking from your wound instead of your worth.

🧩🧠I’ll be adding this to my Inner Child Book List, alongside the ones that make you pause, breathe, and try again.

Drop a DM or your email if you want the list when it’s ready.

They said “behavior.”
I heard “overwhelm.”

If you just left a parent-teacher meeting or IEP feeling like your child was being picked apart, pause. 🧠

Behavior isn’t defiance — it’s communication.

Before jumping to meds or labels, ask:

🔑 “When do you notice it happens most?”

🔑 “What helps them feel safe?”

🔑 “How can we support regulation, not perfection?”

You’re not overreacting. You’re advocating

🧩 Parenting through a nervous-system lens changes everything and is a missing piece to the bigger puzzle

If this hit home, save this reel for your next meeting, share it with a teacher or parent friend, and follow for more brain-based, heart-forward parenting support

When the school calls, your stomach drops and your brain races.

You’re not alone—so many parents feel instant panic when they see “School Calling” on their phone.

Here’s the truth:

🔑 Your nervous system is just trying to protect you.
🔑 Pausing before you answer helps you show up calm.
🔑 You and the school are on the same team.

🧠🧩 Next time the school calls: breathe, get curious, and remember—you’ve got this.

Save this for later, or share it with a friend who needs the reminder.

I had the honor of joining the podcast to talk about Breaking the Cycle of Self-Sacrifice.

Too often, we’re taught that our value comes from overgiving, people-pleasing, or putting ourselves last.

In this conversation, I shared:
🔑 Why self-sacrifice shows up in families and culture
🔑 How it impacts parents, caregivers, and cycle-breakers
🔑 Simple shifts that help you reclaim your needs without guilt

🧠 🧩 Cycle-breaking isn’t just a buzzword—it’s everyday, courageous work.
