You want to be a calm and connected parent, with respectful kids, but your feelings of anger and overwhelm get in your way.
You’re tired of yelling.
> You want your kids to listen, but they don’t.
> You don’t know what to do when your kids misbehave.
> Your kids seem harder than other kids.
> You’ve tried all the parenting tips and tricks and nothing seems to work.
> You fall into bed most nights feeling exhausted, angry, and sad.
Because I’ve been there.
I was once an overwhelmed, confused and angry mom to 2 young boys…
I tried every traditional parenting strategy …
Counting down
Time out
Take-way
Threats
Bribes
Sticker charts
Lectures
Yelling
All of which only made my kid’s behavior worse...and left me feeling like a failure.
One night, while tucking my 4-year-old son in bed, I gently said to him, “I love you so much.” And he replied, “I know you do, but I just don’t think you like me very much.”
My heart broke into a million pieces.
It was at that moment that I knew I needed a new parenting plan.
I created a simple parenting process that would help me feel calm, so I could stop yelling, and become the mom I wanted to be.
I took the guesswork out of compassionate parenting and simplified it into 4 simple steps so I could get out of the parenting spiral of yelling, spanking, threats, bribes, commands and lectures.
The Calm Mama Process will help you with…
- Managing your thoughts + emotions so you feel better, no matter what your kids are doing.
- Creating self-confidence so that you believe you are a great mom and drop the guilt and second guessing around your parenting.
- Developing a deeply connected relationship with your child so your child feels your unconditional love and you enjoy spending time together.
- Evaluating parenting moments so that you will always know exactly what to do in your family, + how to adjust your plans if they are not working.
- Clarity on what to do about screens, sweets, sleep, schoolwork, self care and so much more so you have a family rhythm that works for you.
If this is what you’re after… you’re in the right place.
Imagine family dinners that don’t end with tears...
Bedtime routines filled with hugs and kisses, instead of threats and frustrations.
Family vacations that are actually fun.
Getting to school and work on time, with everyone dressed and ready, without stress.
Homework time that goes smoothly.
Screentime rules that work.
Imagine falling asleep each night feeling joy, peace and hope, instead of feeling worried, resentful and disappointed.

From setting limits that get kids to think, to being compassionate, to knowing how to stay calm in tricky parenting moments, I’ve created a parenting process that has it all.

—Marissa Kennerson
"My daughter told me she’s proud of me for taking this class. I asked her why and she said, 'Because it shows you care about being better at being a mom. You yell less and when we are having big feelings or bad behavior you take us aside to work through our emotions.'."
—Mori Leshem
“I LOVE being coached by you—it has truly made a huge impact in my life. I truly feel that the last few weeks—there has been a “shift”in my life, in the kids, how I parent… it’s been so so so GOOD—and something that I can see we have all benefited from. I can SEE and feel the benefits. Thank you so much.”
—Netanya Dennis
The parenting process I’ve developed is revolutionary.
It is the tool that you need in order to manage your emotions, teach your kids to manage theirs, and help them develop personal responsibility.
The process can be applied to every parenting situation, every age, every stage.
It’s a framework for compassionate parenting that addresses the underlying obstacle to connected parenting—your emotions.
Once you’re trained in the Calm Mama process you learn to coach yourself when you feel upset, SO you can coach your kids through their emotions.
With a calm mind, you can think clearly about your limits and communicate your rules and limits without harshness, threats, bribes, or punishment.
This program gives you the insight as to why you get so upset, tools to shift your perspective, and simple strategies to emotionally coach your kids.

I have another question...
I'm the coach who's been there. I've been the yeller...
The raging mom. Who used to get so mad, spit would fly out of her mouth. Now, I have teenagers who enjoy spending time with me, and who I adore. I have the relationship with my kids I always dreamed of.
Plus my kids are emotionally and physically healthy with great relationships with themselves, each other, and their peers.
I’ve done the work, Mama. I’ve read the parenting books, been through all the parent training programs, became a certified life coach, and created this program so that YOU can create what you want as a mom without the struggle.
I'm the coach who gets you, which is why I'm so good at helping moms overcome their own feelings to become truly calm, no matter what is happening.
