Relationship Coaching
When relationships feel challenging, it can help to talk to someone. We can give you new strategies and tools to deepen your relationships, lessen conflicts in your home, and move toward more joyful and satisfying relationships.
Understanding consent and letting go of power struggles opens up new ways to be in relationship with our children and partners and brings a blossoming sense of joy, safety, and connection to our days.
Book a one-hour call (for individuals or couples) with a member of the Living Joyfully team (Pam or Anna) to discuss your questions and challenges around relationships or parenting.
Unschooling Consultations
There is no playbook for unschooling! It’s going to look different in every home.
That said, sometimes it helps to talk to someone who’s been there and understands the unique joy and challenges that come from being an unschooling family.
Book a one-hour call with a member of the Living Joyfully team (Pam, Anna, or Erika) to discuss your questions and challenges around unschooling.
