Finding Happiness as a Parent (Raising Happiness Homestudy Theme One)
Register now to get immediate access
4 weeks of online classes + BONUS week
Want happier kids? Start by becoming happier yourself!
- Stop feeling so crazy busy.
- Start feeling work-life balance & bliss.
- Establish routines that help you through the day with easy and joy.
Learn how and why to put your own happiness first. Dr. Carter provides insights on the latest scientific findings and delivers them in bite-sized weekly video classes.
You’ll learn:
- How and why to resist the urge to always put the needs of your children before your own. Studies show that parents who experience more positive emotions in their own life tend to be warmer and more responsive to their children, making them more able to respond to the needs of their children.
- How to efficiently and effectively make change in your life. Knowing how to form a new habit and break an old one is a life-skill you’ll use again and again!
- Why parents tend to be less happy than their childless peers. We’ll discuss the societal forces that are driving our happiness down and what we can do about it.
Instead of pushing yourself to the brink trying to give your kids everything, learn what matters most!
This is what you get when you enroll in this ONLINE CLASS:

- GROUP COACHING FROM TAMAZIN HEHER, MSW. You’ll meet once a week as a group. My role is to help group members overcome sticking points and to provide additional parent education and insights based in child development theories and practices.
