Work with Me | Lori K Walters Master Parenting Coach

Your way of parenting isn't working anymore -

not with this kid, not in this situation.

You want to feel some peace in your parenting. Less walking on eggshells ready for battle and more ordinary, honest communications.

Is this for you?

I’m so stressed trying to parent this kid.

I’m being tossed around on the tidal waves of their emotions and getting triggered, and I never know which way is up. I hate that my anxiety is driving my parenting. This is not the kind of parent I want to be.

I don’t know how to help my kid with ADHD/ anxiety/ depression.

They want their independence but I’m worried sick that the important things will fall through the cracks. I carried all this responsibility for so long and now I don’t know how to support them. I’m living on constant high alert and I feel lost.

My kid has shut me out.

I try to brace myself for the silence and accept it, but it really hurts. And I hate not knowing what’s going on for them. I feel unappreciated and disrespected but, when I try to get them to talk to me, it just drives them farther away.

If this sounds like you, you're in the right place.

There is another way.

Although things feel messed up right now, there is a way to shift out of this tension.

You can develop a new level of steadiness in yourself so that, even when you land in difficult, unfamiliar territory, you do and say what you really mean. Instead of being overwhelmed and overreacting, you’re grounded and clear.

You can learn new ways of communicating with them so that you both feel seen and heard.

You can ride the waves of emotions without being pulled under and be supportive without taking on what’s not yours to carry.

You can become confident in your ability to navigate whatever comes next.

You can regain your lightheartedness. You know, actually enjoy walking alongside them as they launch their adult lives.

You can develop a way of parenting that's aligned with who you are and what you believe.

A way that feels good deep down inside.

That’s what I call ‘Peace in your Parenting’.

Before we go any further,

let's honour all the work you’ve done to get this far.

You’ve given a lot of love and weathered many challenges. Can I invite you to pause here and feel that accomplishment in your heart? Parenting is tough and you’ve stayed in.

You’ve gone to workshops and read books, but it didn’t feel right trying to apply those generic solutions to one of the most complex and precious relationships in your life.

You’ve also done some inner work, maybe energy healing, therapy, reiki, yoga retreats or spiritual ceremonies. You had some important insights, but they didn’t quite translate into your daily interactions with your kid. That happens to most of us.

You've checked out the websites of other parent coaches who offer a quick fix or a just-follow-this-script solution but you're looking for more depth, a real change in yourself that will change how you relate to the young adult in your life.

"We were barely talking and when we did, it usually ended in screaming and slamming doors. I felt like I was falling backwards as a parent. I was lost and scared. But within weeks of starting my coaching journey with you, I could already feel myself getting my footing... The changes in me amaze me. They've changed how my son and I talk to each other. It makes my heart sing every day."

F Glenn, Edmonton

"This was an amazing experience, much more than I expected. I'd hoped to get some new ideas for dealing with my anxiety but instead, I discovered a whole new part of myself. Lori was so attuned with where I am in my own journey as a woman and as a mother. She guided me on a very personal process that makes the change in me feel permanent. I love the way I’m being a mother now.”

You don’t need another parenting prescription.

You need a way to explore the corners of your own heart and soul so you can grow into a steady, balanced parent capable of building a new relationship with your big kid.
