#1
CLARITY
Have a 21st Century Roadmap
The Parent's Job has changed in the 21st Century. It's no longer about basic survival.
Today, parents need to provide children with more than food, clothes, a roof over their heads, public school and extracurricular activities.
What more?
Skills + Achievement + Fulfillment
Our High-Performance Legacy program helps you intentionally do that so your children have the edge. It is based on research and best practices from psychology, neurology, education and business.
Until now, parents of Highly Successful Adults accidentally created high-performance habits early in their childhood. Their children learned at an early age how to maximize their skills and abilities.
They gifted their children with specific advantages that pay off for the rest of their life.
You don't have to figure it out by yourself. It's challenging enough to learn how to do the basics of day-to-day parenting. We're here to support you so you know how to help your children maximize their potential and succeed. personally and professionally.
#2
BE INTENTIONAL
PREPARE, PRACTICE & REINFORCE
SMALL STEPS DONE CONSISTENTLY
Having an explicit plan will give you direction and options that are customized for your children and are aligned with your values, beliefs and abilities.
You are likely already doing a lot but primarily focus on day-to-day parenting tasks that require immediate attention. There's little time for much thought or pre-planning.
Do you have a clear and specific plan, appropriate for each developmental stage, to prepare your children for success in adulthood and avoid the dangers of adolescence? Or, are you just hoping and praying?
Coaching can help. We ask you questions so you can be clear about how to get you and your child to your destination. What do you need to do differently or add to what you're already doing? What life skills and habits do your children need to succeed? Are you seeing the bigger and long-term picture?
Small steps done consistently is the key.
We can help you, step-by-step, to identify high performance and foundational skills that are age and ability appropriate.
#3
BE PRO-ACTIVE
In the 21st Century, parents must be more proactive and anticipatory instead of passive and reactive to prepare children for adulthood.
Focus on the skills that give your child the edge and advantage as they grow up in the 21st Century. They include...
Problem Solving, Critical Thinking, & Decision-Making
Communication Abilities
Social Skills
Logic
Our proactive High-Performance program for parents uses a research-based coaching approach that will empower you to influence, provide direction, prevent conflict, protect and guide your child to make better decisions in adolescence and adulthood.
We understand what children need to feel safe and secure to grow and prosper. In early childhood, they need you to create a strong physical, social, mental, and emotional foundation. They need to master a range of psychological and social skills as they age. They also need to be challenged so they can grow, mature, and acquire the "soft" skills of success.
WE ARE HERE TO HELP YOU FIGURE IT OUT.
Factoids:
"Hard skills get you the interview. Soft skills get you the job."
Employees with good soft skills are promoted into managerial and executive positions. Those with good hard skills have a built-in ceiling they reach much earlier in their career.
WHAT YOU DO TODAY IMPACTS FUTURE GENERATIONS - YOUR CHILDREN, GRANDCHILDREN, GREAT-GRANDCHILDREN...
Your legacy can impact multiple generations of descendants who are coming after you. You reinforce and set positive patterns in place that can last hundreds of years.

I'm Ready to Discover & Create My Legacy For My Children
PREPARE NOW FOR ADOLESCENCE & ADULTHOOD
THE EARLY YEARS ARE THE GOLDEN YEARS WHEN YOU ARE YOUR CHILD'S HERO. THEY IMPLICITLY TRUST YOU. THEY LOOK TO YOU FOR GUIDANCE, INFORMATION AND DIRECTION.
DURING THESE EARLY YEARS, THERE IS A WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY TO INSTILL FAMILY VALUES, BELIEFS, AND STANDARDS. DO IT BEFORE THE SURGE OF RAGING HORMONES HIT.
WHEN YOUR CHILDREN ARE YOUNG, YOU CAN HELP PREPARE THEM, AND YOU, FOR WHAT'S COMING. IT CAN PREVENT OR MINIMIZE THE OCCURRENCE OF THE CHALLENGING BEHAVIORS THAT COME WITH ADOLESCENCE. IN SOME WAY YOU WILL BE CHALLENGED.
THE BRAIN IS CHANGING
ONCE THE BRAIN TRIGGERS THE NATURAL PROCESS OF PUBERTY, THERE IS RAPID NEUROLOGICAL AND PHYSICAL DEVELOPMENT. THESE BODILY CHANGES COINCIDE WITH A SIGNIFICANT INCREASE IN THE IMPORTANCE OF SOCIAL INTERACTIONS, THE LESSENING OF FAMILY INFLUENCE, AND QUEST TO ESTABLISH THEIR PERSONAL IDENTITY.
AN INVISIBLE BUT POWERFUL INFLUENCER
AS ADOLESCENT HORMONES KICK IN, THEY MAY PROFOUNDLY AFFECT YOUR CHILD'S MOODS, EMOTIONS, THINKING, BEHAVIOR, BODY AND IMPULSES. IF A STRONG FOUNDATION HAS BEEN BUILT IN PREVIOUS YEARS, IT WILL HELP THEM GET THROUGH THIS ROUGH HORMONAL DRIVEN DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE WITH GREATER CONFIDENCE, CLARITY, AND COURAGE.
THE DRIVE TOWARDS SELF-DETERMINATION
THERE IS A STRONG IMPETUS TOWARDS ATTAINING INDEPENDENCE AS YOUR CHILD TRIES TO FIGURE OUT WHO THEY ARE, WHAT THEY WANT, AND HOW TO MAKE THEIR OWN DECISIONS. THEY QUESTION AND ASSERT THEMSELVES AS THEY TRY TO FIND THEIR OWN WAY.
ADOLESCENTS ARE HIGHLY MOTIVATED TO FIND THEIR OWN ANSWERS BUT THE PARTS OF THE BRAIN RESPONSIBLE FOR REASONING, INFORMATION PROCESSING, DECISION-MAKING AND LOGICAL THINKING (INCLUDING RISK/REWARD SELF-REGULATION CALCULATIONS), ARE NOT YET MATURE.
THE DRIVE TOWARDS INDEPENDENCE, PLUS OTHER BEHAVIORAL, INTELLECTUAL AND EMOTIONAL CHANGES ARE NOT ALWAYS EASY FOR PARENTS TO UNDERSTAND OR TOLERATE. PEERS WILL LIKELY BECOME THE MAJOR INFLUENCERS FOR THE NEXT DECADE OF YOUR CHILD'S LIFE.
PREPARE & PROTECT FROM RISKS
BY TAKING THE TIME BEFORE ADOLESCENCE TO PREPARE YOUR CHILD TO BE HIGH PERFORMERS, YOU'VE ALSO BUILT A SHIELD THAT HELPS PROTECT THEM FROM THE RISKS OF ADOLESCENCE. DEPRESSION, BULLYING, LOW SELF-WORTH, ANXIETY, PEER PRESSURE, AND QUESTIONABLE DECISIONS ARE THE HALLMARKS OF ADOLESCENCE.
YOUR CHILD IS EXPLORING A LAND THEY'VE NEVER SEEN OR BEEN TO BEFORE. NOT HAVING A MAP TO GUIDE THEM MAKES IT EVEN MORE DIFFICULT. ADOLESCENTS MAY "TRY ON" DIFFERENT IDENTITIES AND EXPERIMENT WITH RAPIDLY CHANGING VALUES, BELIEFS, STYLES AND SEXUALITY THAT DON'T NECESSARILY STICK AROUND FOR LONG.
WHAT YOU CAN DO IS TO MAKE SURE THEY ARE PREPARED WITH THE SKILLS AND HABITS THEY NEED TO GET THROUGH THIS TIME AND DEAL WITH WHATEVER THEY FACE.
DON'T WAIT.
YOU WON'T HAVE THE SAME INFLUENCE ONCE YOUR CHILDREN REACH ADOLESCENCE.
