“Be The Change Challenge”

Ready for the “Be The Change Challenge?”

Free monthly gathering in Boulder for parents of challenging children

Join us for the next meeting on Tuesday, Feb. 14, 9:30-11am
Greetings! I’d like to invite everyone to an exciting program being offered here at Radical Acceptance Parenting…
A lively, always FREE, monthly gathering for parents who are ready to take powerful steps toward being the person they know they can be, and the parent their child needs.
While the program is open to everyone, I’m anticipating that it will most appeal to foster and adoptive parents who are raising challenging children, and who know that they have within the ability to live empowered, satisfying lives, regardless of the challenges that their path may bring. 
I’ll be offering content, for example…
  • Sustainable Parenting: recognizing, preventing, and healing parent burnout
  • my proprietary model of the three layers of stress and how to work with them
  • how brain development of the young child is impacted by early trauma/neglect
  • using relationship-based, trauma-informed parenting such as Beyond Consequences to heal yourself, your child, and your family
  • healing your own childhood issues (trauma and developmental wounding) using the most current trauma-informed and brain-based modalities
  • using EFT (emotional Freedom Techniques) for maintaining your sense of well-being
  • how to keep your cool around the topic of school
  • Nonviolent Communication as a tool for inner and family harmony
  • dealing with those people who just don’t get it
Sometimes I will invite guest speakers on topics such as…
  • nutrition and well-being
  • accessing post-adoption support services
  • the impact of using medications as treatment for challenging behavior
  • being a catalyst for change and advocacy for adopted and foster kids in the school system
And always, there will be conversation, people who “get you,” and just plain fun!
