Certified Parent Coach-Helping caring parents reconnect with their teens in trying times via 1:1 personalized coaching. Educating parent groups via guest speaking. Coach, Speaker, Educator
💫 Connection brings cooperation. 🍕 An easy way to connect with your teen is with food! Teens who eat meals with their families are less likely to engage in high-risk behaviors. 💡 It doesn't have to be dinner! With the frenzied evenings most families have, it's hard to squeeze that in. But weekend breakfasts together, or even just a shared snack in the evening has high rewards with a low investment in time. 👇 If you want to know more about dinner conversations or how to make family meals manageable, use the link below from The Family Dinner Project. #merryparenting #parentsofteens #parentchildcommunication #parentcoaching #thefamilydinnerproject https://lnkd.in/gKq83bVS

Open Your Hearts, Share Your Hands ************************************** During this holidays season, let's not forget the warmth of giving that truly makes it special. This year, as we gather with loved ones and celebrate the season's blessings, let's also open our hearts and extend a helping hand to those less fortunate. Remember the families facing food insecurity, the children without presents under the tree, and the individuals struggling with homelessness and loneliness. In a nation as rich as ours, no one should have to face the holidays without basic necessities and a touch of Christmas magic. Here are some ways we can all make a difference: * Donate to local food banks and shelters: Every can of food, warm blanket, or toy donated can bring immense relief and joy to someone in need. * Volunteer your time: Soup kitchens, homeless shelters, and senior centers often rely on volunteers to provide meals, companionship, and holiday cheer. * Organize a toy drive: Spread the word in your community and gather new or gently used toys to brighten the holidays for underprivileged children. * Support local businesses: Many smaller businesses struggle during the holidays. Choose to shop local and support those who contribute to the vibrant tapestry of our communities. * Reach out to a lonely neighbor: A simple phone call, a plate of homemade cookies, or even just a friendly conversation can make a world of difference for someone who might be isolated during the holidays. Remember, even the smallest acts of kindness can have a ripple effect, creating a wave of hope and joy that extends far beyond the individual. Here are some additional resources to help you get involved: #FeedingAmerica: https://lnkd.in/e_xCcQg #SalvationArmy: https://lnkd.in/ers_bRH #HabitatforHumanity: https://www.habitat.org/ #ToysforTots: https://lnkd.in/dPMguPF #NationalAlliancetoEndHomelessness: https://lnkd.in/eMGtT63 Let's make this #holiday a season of shared #blessings and a testament to the #truespirit of the holidays!
