Talk about caring for your inner child (or teen!).

My aunt found my long-lost mixed tapes and my brought them with her from the Philippines. These are either recorded from the radio or from other cds and about circa ‘96. My 15 year old grunge/alternative music girl is awake. ❤️

What a day!

thanks again to the City of Los Alamitos for inviting me to speak at the fifth annual Elevate women’s conference. It felt so good to be in the company of all these amazing women. It was enriching to get to know some of them, hear about their areas of expertise and be vulnerable with each other. ❤️

I got to speak about overthinking and shared a little gift with those who went to my breakout session (thanks for coming! I overthought for a bit! Lol); a little die to roll when you get stuck in your head. I also discussed how overthinking affects us women and how it robs us of our ability to be present for our relationships.

I’ll take with me all of what i’ve learned from all of the women today. My heart is full and mind enriched. ❤️

As i’m getting ready to speak about Overthinking at the Elevate Women’s Conference, sponsored by the City of Los Alamitos, here’s a sneak peek into my token for the attendees- a little die that they can roll to get out of spiraling and analysis paralysis and direct them to some options in the moment.

Over the years of doing family therapy, the pattern I see the most parents continue to clear all obstacles for their adult children. While that’s endearing, it causes cyclical conflicts, especially if the adult child lives at home.

When a child, regardless of age feels like their parents believe in them, they’re more likely to persevere and follow through a task, whether it’s school homework or preparing for an interview.

Folllow for more parenting tips and strategies from an attachment-based family therapist. ❤️

Just like any other parent, i fought the urge to give in to more devices and more “trackers” for my firstborn. “What’s another device?”, i thought, “You already gave her a phone at age 8 to give her a direct line to you and your husband in an emergency but did that give you peace of mind?” 🤷🏽‍♀️

She justified having an Apple Watch as yet another expressway to contacting us. But is that really the point? The point is she needs a watch to tell time as she starts middle school tomorrow. I dug my heels in and started her off with a watch (of my choosing because i grew up wearing Swatches!) of her choice of color. Thankfully she backed down fairly easily. Another parent win? Only time (ahem) will tell.

Parents, what’s your most recent battle against devices, screens or accessories and how’s it going? ❤️‍🩹

The small things we parents say and do send a big and impactful message to their little ears. ❤️

I’m so excited to be part of the Elevate Women’s Conference by the City Of Los alamitos for the second year in a row! This time I’ll be speaking about Avoiding the spiral of overthinking and come out more centered and grounded. Last year, it felt so good to commune with all these women and had left me feeling inspired and empowered. Hopefully some of you can join me this time! The link to register is in my bio.

Connection doesn’t always happen in the big moments — sometimes it’s built through small, intentional acts of love, safety, and presence. 💛

Whether it’s reading together, leaving affirmations on their mirror, sharing meaningful conversations at dinner, or slowing down for a calming bedtime routine, these moments help children feel seen, connected, and secure.

If your family is struggling with disconnection, big emotions, conflict, or stress at home, support is available. 🌿

Happy early Mother’s Day to all mamas out there! This is a POV of a mama and the POV of our kids. 😂 hopefully this not only brings a smile to your face but more importantly remind us all that moments of connection matter more than the “boring stuff.”

Maraming, maraming salamat University of the Philippines Sigma Delta Phi Alumni for inviting me for a little chat on “Hiya, respeto and boundaries: when Filipino and American values collide.” It was so good to connect with fellow Katipuneras and talk about balancing values from our motherland and adopted land. ❤️
