Navigating your child's journey of puberty and menarche
can be a lot.
You don't have to do it alone.

STEADY SUPPORT
Raising a child through puberty is a sacred task, and for many of us, it brings up echoes of our own first period: the questions, uncertainty, shame, or silence we may still carry. These memories often surface quietly as our children approach the same threshold, reminding us of what we wish we’d known, or how we longed to be supported.
My work supports parents in tending both: the needs of the growing child and the healing of the inner parent. It’s about offering our children what we may not have received ourselves — truth, tenderness, and trust — and rediscovering that same care within our own bodies and stories.
PRACTICAL GUIDANCE
Through coaching, workshops, and resources, I offer support that is both practical and deeply compassionate. Together, we explore how to talk about bodies, boundaries, and cycles with honesty and ease, creating a family culture grounded in respect and curiosity.
Whether you’re seeking clear guidance, tangible tools, or a safe space to reflect and grow, you’ll find resources here to help you navigate this powerful season with intention, confidence, and care. This is a place to learn, to unlearn, and to connect—so that the story your child receives is one of self-love, wisdom, and wholeness.
HERE'S HOW I CAN HELP . . .
PERSONAL MENTORSHIP & COACHING
I offer one-on-one sessions for mothers and caregivers who want to feel more confident guiding their teen through this next stage of growing up. Together, we can explore how to start (or continue) conversations about sex, self-care, and body sovereignty in ways that feel natural, honest, and aligned with your family’s values.
Maybe you’re also realizing there’s healing to do around your own story—your first period, your early experiences with sex education, or the messages you received about your body. Our work together can help you process that history so you can show up for your daughter from a grounded, compassionate place.
These sessions are a safe space to ask questions, find language for tricky topics, and reconnect with your own body wisdom as you raise a sex-positive, cycle-savvy teen.
THE "PERIOD POSITIVE FAMILY" WORKSHOP
This workshop for parents and caregivers is a welcoming and practical invitation for families who are ready to raise the next generation without shame, secrecy, or misinformation. Whether you're just beginning to talk about puberty with your child, or your daughter has already begun to cycle, this experience will give you the tools, confidence, and shared language to create a family culture where menstruation is respected, supported, and normalized.
ENROLLMENT OPENS NOVEMBER 15th!
BOOKS & DOWNLOADABLES
Whether you’re just beginning to talk about puberty or deepening the conversations you’ve already started, my books and digital resources are here to support you.
Period of Change: Welcoming Your Daughter's Period with Care & Confidence offers practical guidance and heartfelt wisdom for navigating puberty, menarche, and menstruation with confidence and compassion.
You’ll also find downloadable guides and tools that help you build body literacy, spark meaningful conversations, and create a Period Positive culture at home.
CURATED RECOMMENDATIONS
You don’t have to sift through the noise.
After more than fifteen years of guiding families through puberty, menarche, and beyond, I’ve gathered a trusted collection of books, products, and tools that I personally use and recommend.
From body-positive reads and inclusive anatomy guides to period underwear, starter kits, and comfort essentials, each recommendation has been chosen for its quality, inclusivity, and ability to spark meaningful conversations at home.
Think of this as your shortcut to the good stuff—everything you actually need to raise an informed, confident, and empowered young person.
COMMUNITY
I say it all the time: Parenting isn’t meant to be a solo journey. We are not supposed to be doing this alone!
In my online community gatherings and membership hub, parents and caregivers come together to learn, share, and support one another in raising a new generation with confidence, curiosity, and care.
Inside, you’ll find honest conversations, live Q&A sessions with me, exclusive resources, and the kind of connection that reminds you: you’re not alone in this work.
Whether you join for guidance, solidarity, or inspiration, this space is here to hold you through it all.
