Hi! — I’m Angel. I’ve been right where you are.
I know the endless appointments.
The sticker charts. The guilt.
The Google rabbit holes at midnight.
And I know how it feels to be told, “just medicate”—and sent on your way. Alone. Powerless.
But here’s the truth:
You don’t have to do everything.
And you don’t have to do it alone.
With the right support and simple tools, you can help your child in deep, meaningful ways—building the lifelong skills that pills alone can’t teach.

My wake-up call came in the middle of school meeting in fifth grade.
My wake-up call came in the middle of school meeting in fifth grade.
I thought we were going in to talk about classroom behavior.
Instead, the teacher said “ADHD” and “medication”—and suddenly, everything tilted.
I left that meeting with tears in my eyes, a doctor’s number in my hand, and one heavy question looping in my head:
“What do I do now?”
So I dove in—books, blogs, podcasts, parenting programs.
I did all the things.
I tried being gentler. Stricter. More consistent. Less reactive.
I worked so hard.
But nothing really worked.
Not until I changed the way I saw my child.
Not until I stopped trying to fix him and started supporting his brain—with connection, structure, and emotional safety.
That was the turning point.
Because I wasn’t just learning for him.
I was learning for you.
For the mom sitting in that same kind of meeting, blindsided, exhausted, ashamed… and completely alone.
You’re not alone anymore.

“I walked into that meeting thinking we’d talk about classroom behavior.
I walked out with a diagnosis, a doctor’s number… and a gut-punch of guilt I didn’t know what to do with.”
That day broke me open.
But it also lit a fire to figure out what my child really needed—
and who I needed to become to help him.
I’m a Registered Nurse, a Certified Parent Coach, and the creator of tools like the Brain Zones.
But before any of that…
I was just a mom crying in the school parking lot, wondering what I was doing wrong.
I’ve been there.
That’s why everything I teach is built from both science and real life—messy, beautiful, trying-your-best life.
