Pre-registration <Walking the Parenting Path Together: Cultivating Awareness, Acceptance, and Empathy>

🌿 Let’s walk this journey together — step by step, heart to heart. 🌿

Ever feel like you want to raise your child with warmth, but end up lost in the heat of conflict?

Does your child push your buttons daily, and you feel like shouting is the only way out?

Do you crave a deeper connection with your child, yet feel the distance growing day by day?

Does parenting sometimes feel like a never-ending uphill climb, no matter how hard you try?

Do you catch yourself wondering, Am I getting this right? Is there another way?

 If you’ve ever felt this way, you’re not alone — and this course is here for you!

What You’ll Discover:

• Become the kind of parent who feels approachable, responsive, and full of empathy

• Grow your awareness and acceptance of both your own emotions and your child’s

• Learn practical tools to manage emotions and open up new ways of thinking

• Find encouragement and wisdom in a supportive community of parents
