Summer 2022 – Mini Virtual Parenting Sessions on topics that matter

Although I haven’t been writing as much on here, I have DEFINITELY been working on new ways to connect with you! Mostly, I’ve been working on creating awesome content for my two podcasts – Kids These Days need us to Make Words Matter for good  AND   Things you learn in therapy. These two podcasts are incredible resources that I am working to make even more valuable by organizing the content a little bit more so you can search for resources by topic. That will hopefully be coming this fall! 🙂

One way I hope to connect and be more helpful this summer is through what I’m calling virtual mini parenting sessions.

What are virtual mini parenting sessions?

Great question! These sessions will be practical advice on how to parent through a variety of different topics for various age groups (see below!).  You will join a Zoom session with a link provided when you register. You can either have your camera on, or just join without video. You can ask questions via chat or email ahead of time with a specific question about that topic. If you can’t make it during that session, but want the link to watch the video later, you can register and anyone who registers will get a recording. Mini sessions will be between 20 and 30 minutes each time.

 

Why a mini session?

So what I am learning about helping parents is that we need to take in small chunks of information and then apply them in our everyday lives for a little while before we try anything else. So these are a way to teach you a few skills at a time without overwhelming you with lots of information. There will ALWAYS be links to additional resources if more information is what you crave!

 

What are the topics?

Another great question!  Here is the list of topics, dates and time frames! Register for whichever class you want to join, or the entire series.

What if I can’t be there for the live session?

No worries! I don’t expect everyone to be available for every session. Feel free to just watch the recording once it hits your inbox the next day!

Why won’t you do these in person? I prefer being in the room together.

I agree! I would LOVE to do these in-person as well. But I’m still working out the right timing, dates, times, etc. to be able to do that in a way that makes sense. For now, we will do the virtual thing and as you all give me feedback, we can consider alternative, in-person formats. My dream would be to have a parenting retreat (both locally and in a dreamy location) where parents come together to learn and grow in new ways. Someday. 🙂

How much will these cost?

I am wanting to keep these VERY accessible to folks. So the cost will be $5 per session. If you have multiple kids of various ages, the cost for the WHOLE series (all 3 sessions, all 6 weeks), the cost will be $50 (savings of $40!).

The truth is, the VALUE of these sessions is much more than $5. It’s always a balance of making cost accessible, while portraying the VALUE of the content that I will share with you. IF you are a person who has resources to share more than the $5 per session, I’d love for you to reach out and sponsor another parent who can join with you or you could anonymously sponsor someone. Feel free to email me for more info about that.

 

How do I register?

Ready to join me this summer!?!?  I am ready for you to join!! And I’ll be excited to have you.
