"Hi, I'm Suzanne Tucker, a mom of four who has been a physical therapist and parent educator for 30 years.
Parenting taught me so much about myself, including how I traded in my true self as a child in exchange for being a “good girl” --- cooperative, accepted, and praised.
Working with thousands of parents in small groups taught me that I am not alone in my struggle to overcome shame, love myself, and accept myself just the way I am, imperfections and all, as I learn and grow.
In 2016, after a parent in one of my classes asked for help taking what she was learning about connection-based parenting into her busy life, especially when her kids were acting out, I had the big idea to start Generation Mindful®.
I saw that #cyclebreaking parents today, like me, are undersupported when it comes to raising their children differently than they were raised. My big idea was to take the art of building emotional intelligence into everyday family life... practically and playfully.
I dream of the day when punishment-based parenting is a thing of the past, and every child learns not only reading and writing... but vital early emotional life skills from their parents and teachers.
Your interest in me (yay, you're still reading!!!) tells me that you are a changemaker, too. And, like me, I'll bet you could use some tools to help you manage your emotions and parent using connection.
It's hard to teach what we were never taught, so thank you for being a part of Generation Mindful!!!!
I look forward to meeting you inside my Connected Parent Coaching Program, online parenting class, Time-In ToolKit Online Community (free to anyone using our time-in toolkits!), and/or our Reparent Yourself Membership community!"
