Conscious Parents

As a parent, you are uniquely situated to impact your family and your communities. With so much on your shoulders, it’s often challenging to see how you can become a better person while in the process of parenting.

My passion comes from a belief that parenthood is fertile ground for personal growth, connection and maturity. By shifting perspective of parenthood as a learning environment, we see children as teachers and the role of a parent as integral to igniting a drive for growth—both parent and child stay connected to their true selves, act with intention to unlock their maximum creative potential, and deepen their relationship to one another.

Among the various positive angles perceived in conscious parenting, I’m most excited about the idea of personal growth for the parent while fostering a child’s connection to their true self.

The role of the parent is uniquely positioned in a context for growth. The constant demands of a child combined with the deep relational parent child bond create complex tensions that can lead to overwhelm and cause numerous unhealthy outcomes like being too controlling or disconnected from oneself and the child.

A conscious parent sees these moments as opportunities for the parent to learn and understand him/herself better. When fostered, they spark connectivity to one’s unique gifts and talents. With a better understanding of oneself, the parent can rise to the moment in a healthy way, and in turn, help the child thrive.

Young Adults

I work with young adults in a blended coaching model to provide support during the later adolescent years, before entering the real world (e.g. after high school). While much of the coaching is focused on the teen, parental sessions are also facilitated to augment the support within the familial context. This strengthens relationships and develops a solid foundation for building a framework for meaningful discovery and designing a positive future.

In the digital age (in addition to living through a global pandemic) teenagers are becoming increasingly disconnected, apathetic, and disoriented from the authentic beauty within themselves and in the world. They struggle to connect with their own positive energy and unique talents. They’re often ungrounded from a sense of belonging to themselves, their places, and their communities. As a result, they often wander aimlessly without purpose or direction.

While it can be a difficult time for both parents and their teens, it can also be cultivated as a unique opportunity for your teen to be coached in contemplation and essence discovery with parental support—turning overwhelm and apathy into excitement and clarity.

Even if your teen seems to be doing well and has some clarity around their desired future, coaching can benefit your teen to grow a better understanding of themselves as they transition into young adulthood and begin consciously designing their best life.

Do you want to provide a fertile context for your child to help them connect to their essence at this pivotal moment in their life?  Do you want to be there to support your child at this important crossroad in their lives? Do you recognize this need and don't want to get in the way? 

Are you willing to invest in coaching for the benefit of your child and your relationship?

My vision is that every teen stays connected to their super power and that there’s unstoppable drive for growth, so that they can unlock and maximize their creative potential and share it with the world.  A creative life needs to be designed.

Women in Awakening

It’s common for women to experience profound, abrupt changes throughout midlife. A sudden divorce, death, or infidelity can thrust a woman into crisis.

Sometimes the changes come from within like intense feelings of emptiness and meaninglessness, or a conflict between a person’s perception of themselves and their lives as they think they are and what they want them to be. If unsupported, women can find themselves in pain and depressed.

Sometimes the changes occur in the form of a sudden awakening, like a veil someone’s worn their entire lives is swiftly lifted from one’s eyes. With new eyes, the world is seen differently, so now the woman must move through the world differently. If unsupported, women can find themselves lonely and in an extended time of wandering.

Are you experiencing a midlife crisis? Are you feeling untethered from your identity? Are you feeling meaninglessness and desiring grounding and purpose? Are you on the verge of a major life transition and in need of support?  

If you answered yes to any of these questions, know that coaching can help you find your bearings, so you can navigate your newfound uncharted territory with clarity, joy, and purpose.

Women Immigrants

Growing up in the Dominican Republic and living in the United States for over 20 years and now in Portugal has enabled me to grow empathy for the International women on a similar path. I also understand the particular challenges that international women face including the financial constraints. It is for this reason that I offer sponsorships for some clients that are experiencing particularly vulnerable situations and financial hardships.
