Work With Me
You've been reading the newsletter. Maybe you've tried a story or two at bedtime. Maybe you've already seen something shift, your child listening more closely, bedtime getting a little calmer, a moment of real connection where there used to be a battle.
But you want to go deeper.
Maybe you're not sure how to build a story for the specific thing your child is going through right now. Maybe bedtime is still a struggle and you can't figure out why. Maybe you want someone to walk alongside you as you build this practice, not just read about it.
That's what working together is for.
What This Looks Like
I help parents build a personalized storytelling practice that fits their family. Not a script to follow. Not a one-size-fits-all system. A real, living practice that grows with your child.
Together, we work on:
Understanding your child's inner world. What beliefs are running under the surface? What's driving the behaviors you're seeing? We figure out what's really going on, not just what's showing up at the surface.
Building stories that land. I'll help you craft metaphors that match your child's specific challenges, whether that's fear, confidence, honesty, boundaries, sibling dynamics, or something else entirely. Stories they'll ask to hear again.
Transforming bedtime into your most powerful parenting moment. We'll turn those 10 to 15 minutes before sleep into the time your child looks forward to most, and the time that shapes who they're becoming.
Your own inner work. Here's the part nobody talks about: bedtime stories aren't just for your kids. They reshape you as a parent. They force you to get clear on what matters, then challenge you to live it. We'll work on that too.
Who This Is For
This is for parents of kids ages 0 to 7 who are ready to be intentional about the values and beliefs they're instilling in their children.
Parents who are done with lectures and power struggles that go nowhere. Parents who sense there's a better way but haven't found it yet. Parents who want bedtime to become the best part of the day, for everyone.
You don't need to be a great storyteller. You don't need to know anything about NLP or child psychology. You just need to care enough to show up differently.
The Story Strong Session
The first step is a Story Strong Session. It's a free 30-minute conversation, just you and me on Zoom.
You tell me what's going on at bedtime, what's not working, what you've tried. I'll share how I'd approach it using the same method that changed everything for my son and our family.
This isn't a sales call. It's the conversation I wish someone had with me before I figured all of this out the hard way.
If working together makes sense after that, great. If not, you'll still walk away with something you can use that night.

What Parents Are Experiencing
The principles behind Story Strong, reframing beliefs, moving from reactive to intentional, shifting from "in effect" to "at cause", apply far beyond bedtime. Here's what one client experienced through this work:
"I was going through a lot personally with kids and trying to juggle my personal life with work. I also leaned on my ADHD as a crutch, letting it anchor my mindset and how I reacted to challenges.
I learned to reframe adversity as something that could open new doors. That shift gave me clarity and confidence in how I approach problems.
I feel more resilient and clear-headed when adversity arises. I'm also more confident in making tough decisions and moving forward.
I'd recommend it to anyone who feels stuck or reactive. It's a powerful way to reset your mindset and gain direction."
- Mike B., father of 3
When I started using this method with my own son, the results showed up fast:
He went from fighting sleep every night to asking for stories at bedtime. The nightmares that used to wake him up stopped, and he started sleeping through the night. The confidence I saw missing on that soccer field started showing up everywhere, not because I told him to be brave, but because he'd already been brave a hundred times through the characters in our stories.
And our connection? Bedtime went from "Mommy time only" to "I want Daddy." That shift meant more to me than I can put into words.
One night I was tired and tried to skip the breathing part. He stopped me. "Dad, I said I wanted a story." I said, "This is the story." He said, "But you didn't have me close my eyes. You didn't have me breathe."
He owned it. It was his.
A Note on How I Work
I'm not interested in selling you something you don't need. I position these conversations as exactly what they are: two parents talking about what's going on at home, and me sharing what I've learned.
If I can help, I'll tell you how. If I can't, I'll tell you that too.
The parents I work with best are the ones who are ready to do the work, not just for their kids, but for themselves. Because the most powerful thing about this method is that it changes both of you.
