What does joyful courage mean to you?

What comes to mind is really tied to what we’ve been talking about. The bitter and the sweet of these relationships with our kids. They’re so important to us and we have to be courageous to be able to let them go. They need roots and wings. We can’t keep them in a cage, we have to let them fly.

See you next week!! :)

Here’s what some of the mamas are saying:

“It is great to know that I have a place to go when I'm really struggling with parenting. I feel more hope having this group.”

“I don’t feel as alone, it’s so nice to communicate with so many Mom’s who have an idea of what I’m experiencing. I’ve never felt supported in my parenting journey before and you help me feel supported, thank you Casey! I love the community space. It’s so helpful to be able to reach out for support when I’m experiencing a parenting challenge and to be able to support other Moms who need support too.”

CONSIDER ONE ON ONE COACHING - The most POWERFUL of investments offered by Joyful Courage, one on one coaching allows for parents to really tease apart the current issues they are having with their child, while also developing a clear compass for guiding them in the direction they want to be going in.
