who want their children to hold onto their natural state:
one filled with light and laughter and the belief that anything is possible.
You want to create a trusting relationship with your child that will remain open throughout all the different stages of the journey that lie ahead.
You want to nurture your child’s sense of self so they are grounded and resilient - even when faced with the pressures from peers or the comparison-itis of social media.
You want to let go of any expectations, uneasiness and overwhelm, often common to parents. It’s more than relief - you’re seeking the peace of mind that comes with knowing your child is going to thrive no matter what.
These were no longer theories or philosophies, she was a living, breathing, evolving textbook I got to experience.
Seeking a new way of learning for her led me to the philosophy of Maria Montessori, which taught me to recognize the gifts within each child, and the natural potential they hold.
When my daughter was born everything changed.
At first they seemed to me like strange, alien beings.
I could not relate.
But then I became fascinated with how children develop naturally when they’re given the space to grow. I read whatever I could get my hands on, in awe of the power of social change possible through children.
I’d worked with children when I was in college in the ‘70s during an intense period of social change, not unlike the one we’re in now.

I am a *total* Nature Nut!
Whenever I need a boost, you’ll find me with my feet in the grass or hugging a tree.
...and with that, I talk to animals, trees, flowers and plants and tune into their energy ~ often with surprising results!
Children light me up!
Everything from laughter and silliness to the stillness and beauty we find together. They are such a gift.
Music lives in every cell of my being and I regularly have spontaneous dance parties (sometimes in the grocery aisle 😊). If you want to see me boogey down, bring on the R&B, Latin music or anything Disco.
Traveling and immersing myself in other cultures will always be one of my best and greatest teachers
My heart feels most at home in Hawai’i. It’s where I feel the deepest restoration and calm...listening to the whales sing, swimming with the graceful sea turtles, watching the dolphins play, hearing the ocean. So beautiful.
(AND the home of my future retreats!)
The breathtaking awe when looking into a sky glittering with stars
The wonder of the afternoon light as it shimmers through leaves or dances along the water
The sound of the ocean, moving like breath - in and out
The feel of damp, lush grass beneath bare feet
The smell of the earth after a summer rain
The experience of each day as an adventure where magic is possible in every moment
and remind you why it's great to be a parent
make you laugh
light you up
