Being a parent is an extremely rewarding, challenging and humbling experience. With such a wide array of opinions and philosophies on the best ways to educate, nurture, and discipline children; many parents feel overwhelmed and uncertain about what methods will work best for their family.
This meetup aims to create a compassionate space of collaboration where parents can be honest about how they currently show up as parents, how they desire to show up and what tangible steps can be taken to bridge this gap; so that their parenting style is consciously rooted in an authentic place of love, trust, and empathy.
The intention of this meetup is for parents to walk away with a better understanding of their childhood, how they were raised, how that contributed to who they are and how they parent today, and ultimately how they can be consciously present in the moments when their child needs them the most.

Max Marschhausen:
Since 2017 I have been in the education field, working with the same group of kids since 4th grade, giving me the unique lense of seeing a child's development from 4th grade to middle school. I have worked as a mentor with the Colorado Mentor Corps serving a caseload of 4th graders. From 2018-2019 I taught 5th Grade, and now I am an Extended Learning Director with the Colorado I have a Dream Foundation building an afterschool enrichment program for Middleschoolers.
Through my years as an educator and mentor, one thing remains true across all relationships between students and families, and that's giving them permission to show up exactly as they are.
