CHALLENGE STARTS in October 2024
When they are hitting, screaming, having intense meltdowns, feeling worries or avoiding things, they are telling you that their nervous system is dysregulated and that they don’t feel secure inside.
They are getting stuck in their feelings and finding it hard to move in and out of them.
This is why you can’t reason with or soothe them.
When you learn how to regulate your child’s nervous system, you will see them start to put their feelings into words, move through their feelings in a healthy way, and come back to calm sooner.
You might wonder how I, not being a parent myself, can guide you in parenting. Let’s clarify something important: my unique perspective stems from my experiences as a highly sensitive child.
My own journey began in confusion and misunderstanding, as my parents, despite their best efforts and consultations with doctors and school counsellors, could not pinpoint the source of my struggles. This left my mum feeling helpless and brought me to believe that there was something wrong or broken about me. As a teenager and young adult, I masked my feelings, leading to a severe burnout and chronic fatigue on my 21st birthday. I had bottled up so many emotions that my body finally declared “enough.”
Through this profound personal crisis, I learned that I was walking around with a dysregulated nervous system and a core belief that I was unlovable and not good enough, which fueled my anxiety. My healing journey involved deep emotional work that not only resolved my chronic fatigue but also restored my energy and life. It was through this process of healing and learning about emotional well-being that I made a commitment to help children with similar traits, ensuring they do not have to endure what I went through.
Now, I bring these insights into the emotional needs of sensitive children to you. We won’t focus on achieving preset outcomes or collecting “gold stars.” Instead, our goal is to be real and honest, creating a safe space where you can openly discuss your parenting challenges and learn to understand your child’s emotional world with clarity and empathy, without the unnecessary guilt associated with parenting “mistakes.”

What parents say about working with me…
I learnt more from one of your videos than I did in 10 years of therapy!
We have seen such a difference in our 5-year-old's behaviour. He is calmer, getting along with his brother more and seems more secure in himself. Thank you, we were in such a dark place when we first contacted you.
My son had been angry for months and I couldn’t understand what was going on. The teachers were calling me almost daily and I always felt anxious and had headaches. Jen taught me how to speak to him in a new way, and he immediately opened up to me about how he had been feeling. I feel so much more empowered now as a parent, knowing that I don’t need to rely on teachers or other professionals to tell me what is going on with my child. This group has been a blessing.
There’s a way that Jen communicates that makes you feel validated, accepted and understood. Thank you Jen for what you have given our family! Thank you for hearing me and helping me regain my confidence. I look forward to parenting in a way that restores my children’s dignity and sense of self-worth and makes them feel validated and understood. How I desired to parent when I first set out on this journey of motherhood, but got discouraged along the way.

“I think you are wonderful! I got more out of your IGTV on anxiety than I had in 10 years of therapy!!!”
There is always growth in learning how to handle conflicts and that’s why myself and my husband keep doing this work, so that we can approach each other and our children with love.
I used to just react to my son, but now we can sit on the couch together and I can see that his behaviour isn’t about me. This means that I can tell him that I am here for him and that I am listening to him. Before we worked with you, I am sure I was not reacting in a way that made him feel that we were on the same team.
My husband and I have learnt things from you like recognising the tone in our voice and the expression on our faces and that has benefitted us a lot!
The atmosphere in our home has changed so much this last 6 months, that recently when I raised my voice and got angry, our son looked surprised! This used to be our old normal, but it isn’t anymore and that stood out to him! That was huge!
The course made such a difference in our lives.
After completing the course I continued to follow the processes. I had a thirst to learn more, so I commenced the Peaceful Pathway coaching in September 2019 allowing me to share, learn and grow in a supportive community who are also making a difference in their families lives.
Both the course and the peaceful pathway has helped me to have greater awareness of my own sensitivities and my son’s.
It helped stop his nervous and constant throat clearing within a week.
With increased anxiety he started to wet the bed. Soon that stopped after a couple of weeks.
He is also experiencing improvement in his coordination everyday
Greater focus at swimming, and so his technique is improving.
He is more engaged in his learning, and gets excited when he has done well.
He is starting to speak about how he is feeling, and apologizes when he thinks he is wrong.
His creativity is growing daily, as he chooses to draw and paint on his own
Being on The Peaceful Pathway, I am learning to be more accepting, ensure that I have my self-care routine in place, explore my strengths, learn new things to share with my family and to take one step at a time.
“I was nervous at first to invest in one of your programs because I have read so much and spent so much time understanding child development that I was afraid I would only hear things I have already known. That was absolutely not the case. I am SO thankful I invested in more than one of your programs and coaching because it’s helped me as a parent and more importantly as a person- more than any of the books I’ve read ever could”
I’m so grateful for Jen and her Peaceful Pathway. Right from the beginning Jen challenged me to really think about how I felt as a child. Asking me questions that I’d never been asked before. -Did you feel understood as a child?- Well my answer was no and so I decided to come on board to figure out why and how I could heal that part of me mad become the parent I wanted to be but didn’t know-how.
Then on to learning how to pass this new knowledge onto my children. How do I support them to feel loved and understood? How do I create an environment where they get to be themselves …discover themselves….and feel all their different feelings and emotions while knowing that through it all I am by their side loving them and giving understanding and
acceptance.
This is Jens gift and it takes time, practice and commitment. Before Jen I tried to fix our problems all the time and it was exhausting. Now I have an inner peace with parenting
that I didn’t know I could have. Now I have conversations with my children that I didn’t have before. Now I fix less and love more.
“My son had been angry for months and I couldn’t understand what was going on for him. The teachers were calling me almost daily and I always felt anxious and had headaches. As Jen taught me how to speak to him in a new way, he immediately opened up to me about how he had been feeling all those months prior. I feel so much more empowered now as a parent, knowing that I don’t need to rely on the teachers or other professionals to tell me what is going on with my child. I am now in a position to help other parents learn how to connect with their children and have become somebody that others come to when they are struggling. This group has been a blessing.”

“Jen’s wisdom is exceptional! Truly! She is a very intuitive coach and teaches from the soul to the soul. I can not think of a sentence she’s said that hasn’t resonated with me! She is a gift to the world of parenting and highly sensitive people and I’ll be forever grateful our paths crossed.”
