Less Drama More Mama

After her separation, my client Victoria felt lost in her parenting.

She didn't trust her parenting decisions and second-guessed everything.

She thought she needed to learn parenting "rules." What she really needed was to connect with her own wisdom.

In this week’s episode, Victoria opens up about her experience in the Damn Good Mama program and how it helped her find her footing again.

If you’ve ever felt stuck between “I think I’...

I recently sat in the back of a church watching two young girls say goodbye to their mother.

As I listened to the stories shared about her life, I was struck by what people remembered most - the small gestures, the everyday presence, and the little ways she showed up consistently for those she loved.

It made me think about how I'm showing up for my own children, and what they'll remember years from now.

Today’s episode isn't about ...

I love a good laugh.

The right kind of joke at the right time can shift the energy in a room, lighten a heavy moment, and bring families closer.

But there’s another side to humor that doesn’t get talked about as much.

This week’s episode is one I think every parent should hear—especially today, on April Fools' Day.

Every Spring, moms turn their attention to their closets and drawers, sorting through clothes that no longer fit and items that have lost their purpose.

But the heaviest clutter you carry isn't in your home at all. It's in your mind!

In this week's episode, inspired by the first signs of Spring during my recent trip to Connecticut, I'm sharing why now is the perfect time to de-clutter not just your home, but your entire approach ...

A few years ago, I thought I was doing everything right for my health. I took Barre classes several times a week, ate little to no sugar or flour, and practiced intermittent fasting daily. But my stomach growled every night, and I felt exhausted much of the time, which wasn't ideal for keeping up with my kids.

Then I joined Couture Fitness & Lifestyle Coaching and was shocked when Coach Jo told me I had been severely under-eating. ...

You might be familiar with the story I've shared on my podcast and in my book about the morning my 3-year-old refused to get dressed for camp. It became a turning point in my life.

As she hid under the dining room table, something in me snapped. With my sister watching in stunned silence, I lost complete control—yelling, threatening, and eventually spanking my daughter in a rage I didn't recognize. The shame and guilt that followed...

Parenting isn’t a puzzle you can solve.

There’s no secret formula that guarantees everything will go smoothly no matter how many parenting books you read, how much patience you practice, or how hard you try.

When things don’t go as planned, it doesn’t mean you’re failing. It just means you’re a human raising other humans.

And that can be pretty messy!

Tune into this episode to find out what every parent needs to hear—especially on...

You ask your child to turn off their iPad and get ready to leave the house, but instead of action, you get a heavy, dramatic exhale that says, “Do I have to?”

You ask again, this time firmer. Nothing.

And just like that, what should’ve been a simple request turns into a full-blown power struggle.

In this week’s episode, I’m breaking down what’s really going on beneath those exhausting battles and sharing simple strategies to help y...
