My story

From the parenting trenches to coaching.

I'm an educator by training and a longtime homeschooling mom of four. Three of my kids are neurodivergent, so I've spent years learning how their brains work and advocating for what they need.

I'm also an adult with ADHD. I know how it feels to try the systems everyone swears by and watch them fall apart, and how much shame can pile up along the way.

I co-authored the bestselling book Think Differently About Learning and co-hosted the Homeschool Unrefined podcast, where I talked with parents figuring all of this out right alongside me.

Now I coach parents and adults who are tired of advice built for default brains. Together we find what actually works for your brain and your family, and leave the shame behind.
