Anchored Parenting Workshop

Parenting is the hardest job on the planet. We have heard it but living it makes it so much more real.

Maybe you have had these thoughts or said these words…

“I had a vision of the parent I would be. I want to be loving, kind and connected to my family but I feel like my vision has changed and now my days are filled with driving, grocery shopping, cooking, cleaning and managing meltdowns. I don’t feel like our family is connected or doing the things I believe a family should be.”

“I want to be a calm and centered parent. I have great intentions but by noon or earlier I feel frazzled and short with my kids.”

“I forget who I am anymore, and I feel lost.”

“I crave connection and peace in my home and my life.”

“My kids are experiencing anxiety, bullying or anger and I just don’t know how to help them.”

It is time to become an “Anchored Parent”

What does it mean to be “Anchored”?

When we are anchored, we can become the point of stability for our children and our families. Just like an anchor on a ship, we can help our kids feel secure and grounded when they face challenges or obstacles. We can create households with less yelling, fewer tantrums and more connection.

What you will get from this program:

• A place to share your thoughts, your dreams and your hardships with a group of caring people who understand where you are at. This is a judgement free zone.
• Concrete strategies that you can bring to your home the next morning.
• A roadmap that will guide you step by step to move towards a calmer, more connected home and family.
• Resources that you will take with you and that can be re-used as your kids get older.

We don’t want to inspire you and then just leave you on your own. This course will include 4 weekly sessions where we will work through it together. Each week will build on the week before so you must be able to attend all sessions.

BONUS: If you live far away or are unable to attend in person, we are offering 10 online spots where you can participate from home during the session. You will be able to ask questions in the group in real time as if you were there.

Thoughts you might be having…

“My kids are so busy, I just can’t take time away for this course.”

We know your life is so busy. This course will give you time back with your family in a stronger more connected way.

“I can’t afford this right now.”

We know that fall is a tough financial time for families; school fees, extracurricular activities and all that. I want you to have this course now. September is like the new year. It is the perfect time to start new routines and try new strategies and I want this to be the best school year you have had.

We will offer a few options to make this a bit easier:

Invest $149 for all four weeks for one parent, bring a second parent from the same household for $199 for both of you. This is a great way to save and be on the same page.

Separate it into two payments of $75 or $100, either by post dated cheques or credit card. Please contact our office to arrange.

What next?

Register now. We know this is going to be very popular. This course has been one of our #1 requests this year. This is the first time this series will be offered in our Lacombe location. Suite #201, 3402 highway 12

“I have taken Kari’s workshops before but Be the Anchor was the biggest game changer for me and my family.” – parent

I attended the highly informative, engaging, and inspiring Be the Anchor workshop put on by Kari Lotzien. As a parent, there are many questions on a day-to-day basis that we encounter, including the classic, “Am I doing this right?” The workshop provided me a little confidence, and more importantly, the tools to understand that I need to be there for my child in the way he needs. The world of parenting is tough, but Lotzien, in her comedic relief and informative manner, made me realize that we are not alone in that feeling. Walking away from the presentation I felt supported and refreshed. I would recommend this workshop to any parent.

Every time I go and listen to Kari talk I am blown away with all the knowledge. Learning about kids who “flip their lid” and understanding the behaviours has moved mountains in my household. The last course I went to was “Be The Anchor.” I actually went twice and both times I take something else out of it to better myself and my kids. Thank you so much Kari.
