Testimonials
I feel I am now able to be appropriately assertive, so I no longer need to yell and scream at the kids.
Heike, Coffs Harbour NSW
The irony is, now that I am listening more to my
children, they are listening more to me!
Karen, Bunbury WA
These very simple skills bring me back to my heart, to being more present — so in turn a far more authentic relationship now exists with my children.
Trish, Fremantle WA
I have found a method to communicate with my children that fills me with hope. I want to ‘scratch the record’ and jump from the generational rut I find myself in – reacting and feeling powerless rather than pausing and getting connected to myself.
Christina, Perth WA
…Its just great. If you’ve got kids, do it!
Breeda, Fremantle WA
…it was a fantastic experiential learning…something you can’t get from reading a book!
Mike, Fremantle WA
Thanks Jo for your warmth, knowledge and this framework. You've given me such support to keep parenting from the heart.
