Emily is a parenting mentor and educator who

supports families to raise emotionally intelligent and

self-aware children through Conscious parenting.

 

Emily was a Primary school teacher and curriculum coordinator for 7 years, before becoming a mother to 3 beautiful wildlings. Navigating a highly sensitive child, a strong willed child and a pandemic catapulted her into her conscious parenting journey.

 

Over the last 5 years Emily has completed numerous online programs focusing on respectful parenting, emotional intelligence, conscious parenting and aware parenting.

 

Emily now facilitates parenting workshops where she teaches a skill set, which enables parents to ride the waves of emotions and set expectations based on neurological development, as opposed to societal and family expectations. After working with Emily parents transform their view of children, knowing "children are not giving you a hard time, they are having a hard time". She educates families to broaden their emotional intelligence so they may decode their own and their children's emotions and thereby meet everybody's needs with more authenticity and connection.

 

Through private sessions and womens circles Emily helps parents unpack the challenging parenting moments. She guides parents to unravel their stories, emotional wounds and imprints using their parenting reactions and triggers. This leads to a personalized set of tools that supports inner healing, deep self worth, compassion and spaciousness. Doing the inner work, through conscious parenting provides our children with powerful templates and tools to use as they grow and start to navigate their own inner worlds.

 

Emily's work is largely influenced by attachment theory, polyvagal theory, she's trauma informed and uses the framework from Internal Family systems to guide the reparenting process. It is through her extensive knowledge and attunement to each parent that Emily is able to support their transformation so that they may become the parent they always wanted to be.
