You can rebuild safety—starting with one conversation

Helping you build trust and connection with your kids

Hi Reader,

Sometimes it feels like the connection with our kids is lost forever.
The eye rolls. The closed doors. The "I'm fine", when we know they're not. It feels like a wall we can’t climb over.

But safety isn’t built by getting everything right.
It’s built in the small everyday moments — when we stay calm, regulate ourselves, listen deeply, and make room for what’s real.

That’s what we’ll practice in Come to Me First, a 4-day challenge to help you rebuild trust, safety, and connection with your child.

You’ll walk away knowing how to:

  • Respond instead of react (even in the heat of the moment)
  • Build your child’s trust without over explaining or guilt
  • Turn small moments into safe, lasting connection

You don’t need to fix everything overnight. You just need to begin.

COME TO ME FIRST –

Build the Trust Your Children Will Rely On for Life.

We start November 17

Your future self — and your child — will thank you for saying yes.

Love, Carrien
