As I immersed myself in learning & became more fluent in Positive Parenting, becoming a Certified Positive Parenting Educator quickly became a dream of mine.

Being able to connect with families to offer coaching, support & encouragement that could possibly help change their lives motivated me to pursue it further. When I heard that Wendy would be offering this certification program, I had no doubt that I wanted her to be my mentor throughout this journey.

The Fresh Start Family Approach is something very extraordinary and unique. As I began the Become A Parenting Coach Program, we dug deep into the core principles & beliefs of this approach to coaching and I became even more inspired by just how special it truly is.

Wendy personally mentored me in a vast number of topics related to Positive Parenting education as well as common areas of struggles for parents – such as reactivity, shame, victim mindset, vulnerability, paradigm shifting & compassionate discipline.

Each week, we were able to ask questions and have impactful conversations around these topics that lead to a deep understanding of how to notice the areas that would provide parents the opportunity for growth on their journey.

We learned strategies on how to approach coaching, questions to ask that provoke thoughtful introspection from parents, and curriculum & suggestions to offer to support the parent’s own education and implementation of Positive Parenting.

Becoming a Certified Positive Parenting Educator in the Fresh Start Family Approach has been life changing for me. I am so honored to have Wendy as a personal mentor as I pursue my passion every day.

I am beyond grateful for all of the knowledge imparted to me so that I, too, can be a part of this incredible movement to raise this generation of children with respect & compassion.

When I heard that Wendy was opening up her program for Becoming a Parent Coach, I literally shrieked with excitement! When I first met Wendy in 2017, I was so in love with the Fresh Start Family approach and everything she brought to the table.

I was a stay at home mom for years and never considered needing another job outside the home until I really dived into positive parenting. At one point, I remember just feeling like, “This stuff really works, and I think I want to help spread this to other families!” I asked Wendy about her own training and if she would have a certification program. At the time, she did not have one, but in her mind and heart, had a calling to work toward it one day.

I decided to complete one of the training programs Wendy had learned under, but it kind of fell by the wayside because of having 2 young kids at home and not really knowing how to get started, especially as we went into the season of Covid.

Wendy’s program opening was the best thing that could have happened. I finally felt inspired and excited to get started because it was everything I had learned in the Foundations Course and at the Bonfire and was already using in my own home. AND it would be with the one and only, fabulous, funny and totally authentic Wendy Snyder herself!

My husband was super supportive and encouraged me to pursue my interests and see where it led. I’m so glad I did. The program, although newly formulated, is so well thought out and really manageable to commit to. Wendy was with us every step of the way and always ready to support and encourage us as we went through the training. The other ladies I was in with were amazing to work with, too, and we found ourselves fast friends that could lean on and support each other the whole way through.

If you are finding yourself called to this amazing work, I wholeheartedly recommend Wendy’s program. Helping families break painful generational cycles and really create a family of your dreams isn’t just a nice thing to say. It’s available to be a way of life and a shareable message we can help spread to families all over the world.

This has absolutely changed the course of my family. When I found this work, I hated parenting & I didn’t want to do it anymore. I have a very strong willed child and we were aggressively fighting every day. When I found this program, it was a beautiful glimpse of hope. It was an answer to prayer.

One of the biggest blessings that I did not expect was that it changed my marriage in the most powerful way. I love my marriage now. We’re great friends & are working as a team. All of these skills we are doing as a family are all relationship based & just a way of life. And it’s just been so beautiful that all of my relationships have changed and it just started with being humble enough to start with myself.

I’m not an expert. I’ve just learned so much about how to keep showing up in those moments of imperfection. I am so much more aware of my mistakes. I’m compassionate about that. I just look at what I can do differently next time. My stress level is so much lower. And it’s trickling down to my kids & to my husband.

I’m passionate about changing the world and I think that it starts within our home. But first, it starts with us getting the help that we need. The Become a Parenting Coach program really helped me stay committed to this work to allow it to become a way of life so that I can now use my passion to help other families. Wendy has been a tremendous help in this journey & I couldn’t have been where I am without her. I am just so grateful.
