“As a teacher and a parent, I can honestly say this belongs on every classroom and home bookshelf. It helps kids slow down, empathize, and repair when they make mistakes—skills we ALL need.”
– Melissa T., kindergarten teacher + mom
I believe in stories that touch the heart, shift our perspectives.
That remind us that growth is possible and there’s beauty in the mess.
Before becoming an author, I earned my Master’s in Education and worked as a mental health and substance abuse counselor, as well as a research assistant supporting children on the autism spectrum. For the past five years, I’ve reached over 5 million parents worldwide through my blog and YouTube channel, Confidently Mom, where I share embodied, practical parenting tips that help families thrive.
At my core, though, I’m a storyteller. I’ve been writing since I could hold a pen, and now as a homeschooling mom of two, avid reader, and YA TV junkie, I pour my love of characters, connection, and transformation into the books I create for families.

“I love how gentle and relatable this story is. It doesn’t punish kids for big feelings, it shows them what to do with those feelings. My daughter asks for it at bedtime, which is saying a lot for a book about behavior!”
– David K., dad of a preschooler
