Alpha Parent

In this short interview, my guest, Holly, shares her biggest takeaways from the Alpha Parent Group Coaching Pilot. We talk about the online course, weekly group coaching sessions, and parent pods.

Holly's Testimonial

I found that Yulia's course was extremely helpful for me to return to my place of compassion for my child who suffers from a lack of executive functioning skills.  It has been a hard thing to comprehend and find empathy when trying to keep a functioning household and everyone doing their part.  I now understand what I need to bring to the table and how to change my expectations so that I can help him thrive instead of going in a downward spiral of frustrations and then anger.  Holly

The Parent's Tao Te Ching is (in my humble opinion) the most important parenting book ever written. It is also the inspiration for my upcoming Alpha Parent Online Mini Course.

This new, 15 minute, guided meditation features a relaxing body scan and several of my favorite readings combined with a beautiful playlist.

I talk to my 16 year old coaching client, Jude, about navigating relationships, academics, ADHD, and the quarantine. 

I talk to my 17 year old coaching client, Nathan, about navigating school, ADHD, and the quarantine.

To all the moms who sacrifice so much for your families,

Jon Pearson has been called an “imagination guru” and a “maestro of creativity.” He combines his skills as artist, writer and speaker to awaken, entertain and inform his audiences whether he’s speaking about humor techniques, visual thinking or storytelling. Jon’s core message is “Imagination will set you free.” He believes that along with courage and caring, creativity is what will save the world. And he believes that creativity starts with imagination and goes way beyond “the arts.”

Jon has worked with artists, writers, educators, businesspeople and life coaches—over one million people around the world. He is a Distinguished Leader of the Creative Education Foundation and has been a featured speaker for many state and national conferences. He received from the U.S. Patent Model Foundation’s national “Creativity Conference for Educators” the highest workshop ratings in its history.  Jon has a lot to say about the system of modern schooling and how we can reimagine it to better serve the needs of students, teachers, and society.

I talk to Political Philosophy Professor, Dr. Nicholas Dungey, about the role of executive function and executive power in the modern Western Culture. Parents will learn how to trade power for influence and how to guide their kids to develop self-awareness and self-governance in the age of impulsivity and endless acquisition.  (Warning: This is a Deep Dive!

Parents, If the thought of your child becoming an independent adult seems like an impossibility right now, please know that that's OK. Raising a differently-wired child means letting go of the traditional roadmap to adulthood and helping your young adult design their unique path toward a fulfilling life that they can manage.  In this interview, life coach, Lynn C Davison and I boil down the process of parenting into a concrete system that helps you shift from the impossible to the possible, and into the inevitable.

If you could boil down parenting into one concrete action, what would it be? Join me and Conscious Parent Coach, Naomi Rodriguez, in this conversation about finding your parenting groove.
