Students will learn critical ways to self-soothe whenever feeling afraid, disappointed, frustrated, sad, angry, or confused. They will also learn how their thoughts, feelings, and actions impact their overall wellbeing and to describe their feelings and ask you for help when needed.

In 2006 I earned my first of several coaching certifications and opened my coaching and consulting firm, InBliss Coaching & Consulting LLC. In 2015 - 2017 I earned my certifications in applied positive psychology (the scientific study of happiness) by dedicating more than 300 hours to the study and practical application of positive psychology research and earned the title of certified positive psychology practitioner. In 2016 I launched my best-selling book, 'Practical Bliss: The busy person's guide to happiness,' based on the research and my journey to build a life of joy and meaning (a.k.a. Bliss), despite the odds. 

Additionally, more than 900 learners on Outschool have gone through my 5-Star Review class, 'I Don't Know What to Do With My Feelings: How to Handle Emotions and Change.' I've conducted over 1,600 individual and group coaching sessions and hundreds (and hundreds) of workshops and training sessions for adults and children ages nine and up since 2007.

I'm so passionate about the benefits of practicing positive psychology I now incorporate it into all my work with personal and professional development.
