The world is changing, and so is how we’re parenting today’s teens.
We are in a time of real crisis — from a global pandemic to rising rates of anxiety and depression, social media trauma, feelings of isolation and beyond. Our teens are facing complex challenges. If you are here because you too are searching for ways to understand the impact of these difficulties and help your teen fact them, we want you to know two things:
1. There is hope.
2. We've been there too.
Meet one of your hosts,

Enroll now"I found myself at a loss and in a fog of confusion and anxiety. My work and family life were in disarray, and I was not sure where to turn. After eight weeks in class with Michael, I felt a new clarity and calm from the readings, the discussions, the meditations and the community, all of which were guided with sensitivity, wisdom, humor, and ease. I am so grateful for the experience and for the lessons learned."

"Michael moves mountains. Years in therapy has helped me gain clarity on the situation but somehow I still couldn't shift the embodied tension the trauma had left. Michael's guidance and innate gifts helped me find closure and move on with my life. He has a true gift to guide and I am forever grateful."

Program Overview
Transformational Parenting is taught entirely online and can be accessed from anywhere, anytime. Each lesson can be viewed in under 30 minutes and contains real-life exercises to put the tools into action!
Week 1: Communication & Connection
You’ll communicate with your teen better than ever by mastering the art of active and compassionate listening and learning how to manage conflict with your teen with clarity and calm.
Week 2: Investing in Your Inner Resources
You’ll commit to a self-regulation practice and reflect on your parenting triggers so you can stop them in their tracks! Say goodbye to angry outbursts and feeling bad for how you parent and learn proven strategies, to ensure you remain calm and confident even when your teen is not.
Week 3: Healing Generations through inner family dialogue
You’ll identify and work with your own unaddressed childhood or early-adulthood wounding so you can better parent your teen through all the forms of trauma they are facing today — from personal crises to global violence, the impact of social media, gender identity, and more.
Week 4: Compassion & Healing
You'll receive practical tools for addressing anxiety, depression and self-harm; Recognizing signs of anxiety, depression, and suicidal ideation is becoming more challenging for parents today. You'll learn how to spot subtle signs of self-harm that plague teens today and what to do before they hurt themselves.
"If you are looking to make positive changes in your life, but are not sure exactly where to start, or maybe feel a little alone, I'd highly recommend this program. Michael is a skilled coach, a compassionate, mindful leader, and a really cool human. You'll be glad you did it."
