The Joy of Imperfect Parenting nuggets are designed to be a beacon of light. It's what I wish I had when I was raising teenagers - a quick, informative read with good thoughts, simple action steps and a little bit of humor.

​

Parenting is arguably the hardest job we’ll ever do. On top of that, we’re so unprepared!  We expect ourselves to just figure it out!  What other job on the planet throws you in with no training or support!  And yet here we are….

 

Well…kudos to you!  If you’re reading this, you are taking proactive steps toward learning and growing as a parent.

 

Raising teenagers is not for the faint of heart.  The teen years are filled with overwhelm, excitement, frustration, hope, anxiety, and exhaustion.  I raised three of them and I am here to tell you - it’s turbulent!  The good news is, I survived…and honestly, I had fun during most of it!  Now, as an empty nester, I'm loving watching my resilient young adults tackle all the ups and downs of the “real world.”
 

I’m here to cheer you on and provide information/advice from my experience as a mom, life coach and lover of learning.  My hope is that after reading each Parenting Nugget you will feel informed and encouraged while being reminded: You’re not alone on this crazy journey!    

We're in this together and we are NOT perfect!

Above all, keep laughing!
