About this listen

 Do you struggle in your parenting because of childhood pain? Do you sometimes repeat old patterns from your childhood? You want to be a better parent, but you don’t know how. I understand, parents. I came from dysfunction, trauma, and abuse. I didn’t know what was healthy. Over the years, as a school counsellor, and mom of two, I learned what is healthy and how to be healthy with my own children. There’s a better way to parent where you feel good and so do your children. This way can replace the old patterns so you can nurture healthy relationships with your kids. This is relational parenting. This is what I teach parents. Hi, I’m Anne Alvares, Parent Coach of the Masterful Parenting Program. In this 9 week program, I will help you to heal, gain confidence in your parenting and foster healthy relationships with your kids. You will learn how to become more self-aware, how to connect better, and ways to communicate that touches your child’s heart. I have helped many parents over the years as a high school counsellor and teacher and I am also the mother of two boys, age 23 and 13. I understand the challenges of parenting and have gained the skills to help keep peace and build relationship with your kids. And I can help you too. If you want to feel confident about your parenting, less tired, more connected, and more appreciated by your kids, then you are in the right place. Join me in my Masterful Parenting Podcast. I truly believe parents can feel empowered in their role and we can change the world one parent at a time.Copyright 2022 All rights reserved.

    Rachel Grant is a disruptor of traditional modes of healing, creator of the Beyond Surviving program, international speaker, podcast host, and Sexual Abuse Recovery Coach with an M.A. in Counseling Psychology. She is also the author of Beyond Surviving: The Final Stage in Recovery from Sexual Abuse.

    Based on her educational training, study of neuroscience, and lessons learned from her own journey, she has successfully used the Beyond Surviving Program since 2007 to help survivors of childhood sexual abuse who are beyond sick and tired of feeling broken and unfixable break free from the pain of abuse and finally move on with their lives.

    For those of you who don’t know me, I’m Anne Alvares. I came from childhood pain. I suffered abuse, controlling parents, and was parentified.

    My healing journey began almost 30 years ago when I first told my story. When I became a mother, I was determined to heal and not repeat the patterns of my childhood in my own parenting with my children.

    Now, I teach parents how to foster healthy relationships with their kids. When we uncover our childhood story and become aware of our triggers, we can begin to heal and change. When we do this, our children thrive and we can feel good about our parenting. I have over 16 years of experience working with teens and their families as a high school counsellor and I'm the mom of two so I understand the challenges. I teach parents relational parenting so you can foster healthy relationships with your children.

    Let me help you to change. I have a parenting course and parent coaching program (9 weeks long) offered digitally with weekly coaching support.
