“Our school has been forever changed by meeting a fellow child care professional who believes in the power of seeing children differently. Mara was the right person for our families. We have broken ground on our Conscious Discipline journey and we appreciate her leadership!”
“Mara’s engaging presence has a way of connecting her audience and bringing everyone together. Her workshops have helped me improve relationships and communication in all areas of my life. I can’t recommend her enough!”
"Mara was able to present the material in different ways that I hadn’t considered before, which seemed simple to implement and consistent enough to be used regularly. I wish I was a sponge so I could have soaked up everything she said! It will all help me in everyday life, not just the classroom."
