The e-book is done! (and I think you'll like it)

It’s finally here! After writing and editing and editing and editing some more I have finally completed my e-book. 

One of the things that inspired me to coach parents (queer or otherwise) was the overload of information and advice that’s out there.  I found it overwhelming and flat out confounding at times trying to navigate the expert opinions and advice.  Through talking to friends and working with clients it became evident that what parents really needed was a way to sift through all of the advice and find the parenting solutions that made the most sense for them.

As I sat down to write my e-book I started by brainstorming all of the questions I would ask a client who was trying to choose a solution to a parenting problem.  As I sorted through all of these questions and organized them into categories I realized that what I had was the following 10 steps:

1)    Assess the problem
2)    Clarify your values
3)    Know your limits and your strengths
4)    Identify barriers
5)    Consider the alternatives
6)    Consider other factors
7)    Set your criteria for success
8)    Set a time-frame
9)    Create a contingency plan
10)     Consider the emotional impact 

The goal of this e-book is to provide parents with tools to parent confidently according to what makes sense for them as people and for their family as a whole.  As a coach and a parent I strongly believe that the best parenting always comes from a combination of self-awareness, self-care and pragmatism.

So please, download the free e-book and let me know what you think, if you like it feel free to share it with your friends.

Enjoy!
