Hi, I’m Angie ! Twin mom, wife, coffee lover, podcast host, and parent coach.

My mission? To help break generational parenting cycles so we can raise some really amazing humans.

I always knew I wanted to be a mom. So when I welcomed my twins in 2014, I thought I had checked all the boxes- career, house, family. But as we all learn (sometimes the hard way), parenting doesn’t come with a handbook.

I spent the early years of motherhood stressed out, short-tempered, constantly chasing work-life balance, and drowning in mom guilt. I felt like I was doing it all… and somehow still falling short.

Something had to change. I made a big leap by quitting my job to focus on my kids and pursue my passion for holistic health education. I began to feel like myself again, and with that shift, things at home started to feel lighter, too.

But then life threw me some heavy curveballs. Personal trauma sent me on a deep healing journey. I enrolled in a program focused on emotional and mental health, not just to help myself, but to help my family, too.

As I applied these tools in my own home, I saw how powerful they could be. My kids started understanding and managing their emotions better. Our communication improved. I felt more in control, more connected, and more confident in how I showed up as a parent.

I knew I had to share this with others.

That’s how The Parent Toolbox was born. Now, I help parents just like you feel supported, seen, and equipped. The tools I share aren’t one-size-fits-all- The C.A.L.M. Approach to Parenting© are made up of foundational strategies you can customize to your family’s needs.

If you’ve ever felt burnt out, disconnected, or like you’re just surviving the day-to-day, you’re in the right place. We’re not aiming for perfection, just more communication, more connection, and more calm.

Let’s build your parenting toolbox together.
