  • Immediate Change

    My husband and I (and our kids) are so grateful to Flora! We’ve been to a number of parenting classes and looked at so many resources online. Flora is the only person who helped us make changes that showed a positive affect within the first few days. We love seeing so many positive changes in our family with simple and easy-to-use strategies. Thank you so much!

  • Practical tips with empathy & understanding

    Flora is my go-to resource for parenting young children! I’ve recommended her to several friends and clients who wanted support through coaching sessions, and the Sustainable Parenting podcast has been a godsend to parents who want practical advice “on the go” from someone who truly understands what it’s like to care deeply about nurturing your children while maintaining healthy parent-child boundaries.

  • Relief

    First of all, just from listening to one episode, I found relief in little tidbits of helpful information. I’ve had anxiety about whether I’ve been doing some things right with my 2.5yo or not. Relief that I was either doing some things right or discovering a new tactic to try. As well as, gaining understanding HOW it is beneficial for both the child and parent.
