Parent Training:

There are many ways to pay for Aric to come to your school! Below are some ways to find funding.

Wake Up Mom and Dad! How to be a conscious parent.

When your child speaks, are you listening or just hearing? Are you showing them how to succeed by example? In the go-go world of being a parent which starts with making morning lunches and ends with late night soccer practices most parents get overwhelmed by taking care of their child’s needs yet missing out on a real emotional connection with their child which is all a child really wants from us.

If you want your parents to learn how to be more present with their child and learn how to build their self-esteem so they can achieve in school and in life then this training is a can't miss opportunity.

Parents will learn:

How to get excited about their own dreams!
Modeling Healthy Behavior
What NOT to Do
Resisting Comparisons
Letting your child Feel
Setting Boundaries
The art of saying “No”
Practical Self Care Strategies – for the BUSY Mom and Dad

Ideal Audience: Parent Involvement Conference, PTA and PTO meetings, Parent Night or Parent Luncheon on a day that Aric is booked to speak at your school or conference.
