If you struggle with self-doubt as a parent and are afraid you're making mistakes with your kids, you've come to the right place.
Silence your inner critic
Make decisions confidently
Manage your emotions during conflict
CAN YOU RELATE?
-
"I'm worried that I'm not a good mom, or that I won't be a good mom"
-
"I want to be a supportive parent, but I'm afraid I won't know how to build a strong bond with my kid"
-
"I'm afraid of passing on unhealthy habits to my kid"
-
"My kids are amazing...but sometimes I worry they'll struggle with things like school, jobs, or emotional times"
-
"I hope I show my kids how valuable they are"
The truth is...
We either repeat the lessons we've learned, or we do the exact opposite... even if the exact opposite is just as unhealthy.
But it doesn't have to be that way for you and your children.
The world has changed since we were kids. The parenting methods that our parents used have evolved as well. Insights of how childhood experiences affect us as adults is now a driving force into how we can break the cycle of generational family dysfunction.
By practicing positive and effective parenting skills, we reduce self-doubt and increase our confidence while instilling these healthy characteristics in our children.
Through modeling, you can teach your children the skills to be emotionally healthy and resilient. You will build their sense of self-worth and reduce the amount of unnecessary challenges later in life.
By recognizing that childhood matters, your children will have less to overcome when they are older.
WHY DO PARENTS HAVE SELF-DOUBT?
Feelings of self-doubt as a parent can come from a variety of places.
- Not having a great example / role model growing up
- Home life was a little chaotic
- Not having a voice as a child, not being listened to
- Suffering from PTSD from past experiences or recent trauma
- Lacking coping skills to manage conflict and emotions
- Being super independent and don't know how to identify as a parent
- Trouble balancing marriage, home, work, and kids
- Fear of messing up and making mistakes
- Spouses disagreeing on parenting techniques
There are proven methods of creating connections with yourself and your family that have never existed in the past.

WELCOME
Hey there! I'm Holli Howard, Founder of Positive Living Coaching. I am a professionally trained, certified, and experienced Parent Coach & Educator with a focus on helping parents build awareness of what it is they truly want for their family and how to get there.
I understand the profound importance of raising emotionally healthy children. During my work in the field of child welfare, I have learned that we either repeat the lessons we've been taught... or we do the exact opposite. I want to help you find the balance.
For parents, I offer education to reduce the risk of the generational harm you may have experienced and do not want to pass on to your children.
When we raise emotionally healthy & resilient children...
They become emotionally healthy & resilient adults.
Isn't that what we all strive for?
