"You know I've had calls with other parent coaches, and they all told me I needed to be 'more' or 'less' *something*. You just listened to me and you helped me see how I can get what I need by just being who I am with my kids. I don't need to change and that's so freeing."

After our consult, I just can't believe how well he is responding. It's like he is saying, "FINALLY YOU GET IT - THIS IS WHAT I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR!"

Kelly is very open and real, she brought examples and stories to teach and she modeled the skills in class constantly. This course helped open my eyes to how to listen, which has completely changed my relationship with my kids.

In the past few weeks, both boys are asking for more family time because they want to be together. To me, that is a perfect illustration of harmony. The very thing I set out to obtain.

I know this may seems like a simple principle, but it was diving much deeper into this philosophy that was a major take-away for me in Kelly's class. The idea that some "problems" are things that I need to own was really a breakthrough. I know that using Kelly's active listening techniques from P.E.T. work. It's not parroting key gentle parenting phrases like things I have learned in the past either. It's really listening to understand, which as it turns out is a pretty rad two-way street with my child. I wish I could carry Kelly in my pocket everywhere and can't wait to take the next class in the series.
