    How to STAY calm: Learn how to maintain your composure even when the pressure mounts, setting a powerful example for your child.
    How staying calm in the storm allows you to mdel your values: Uncover how staying calm allows you to embody your deepest values and nurture a stronger parent-child connection, even amidst challenging emotions.


    About Judith Pinto, in her own words:

    I work with perfectionistic Type A Moms who feel distracted, scattered, & overwhelmed. My clients are smart, capable women who struggle with feelings of overwhelm and getting things done - mostly because they have so much to do. Just like me. So I know how to help!



    I've got extensive training in Solution-Focused Coaching and NeuroMeditation; a whole load of life experience as a mother, wife, creative soul, musician, career woman, and entrepreneur; plus a 30 year career as a health professional working with children & adults with developmental challenges. I'm also a biologist, naturalist, and animal lover. I loved my evolutionary biology, genetics, and neuroscience courses in my first (Zoology) degree, continue to enjoy time spent in nature and with animals, and have a deep appreciation for the mysteries of the universe. I also continue to love learning about and working with chakras, animal guides, and oracle cards. It's fair to say I have the mind of a scientist and the heart of a mystic.



    So, as a Contemplative Practices Coach, you'll find I brew up an artful blend of science and "woo" to help my clients learn how to overcome overwhelm so they can focus on what matters, when it matters most.



    People tell me I am a calming presence and my personal stories enliven discussions and serve up insights steeped in relevance and meaning. I also sing and play the Celtic harp. And I LOVE jazz, especially the music of Thelonious Monk.

    3 Perspectives to Strengthen Connection Through Creating Trust, with Renee Sinning

    4 Ways to Change Our Thinking About Kids Who Struggle, with Scotti Weintraub

    4 Ways to Change Our Thinking About Kids Who Struggle, with Scotti Weintraub

    When your child is struggling at school - or at home - it’s easy to see the challenges as theirs alone. But as parents we can rethink the way we see these hurdles.

    We get a chance to look at our role as parents in a big-picture kind of way and reevaluate how we approach their challenges. Looking at our kids with different lenses (or reframes!) gives us a peek into what’s hiding underneath our kids’ challenges - and our reactions to them too.

    Join us as we chat with Scotti Weintraub of Reframe Parenting as we chat about our identities and our kids, our perception of ourselves relative to our kids’ struggles, and more!
