WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION Are you ready to shift from managing the details of your child’s life to guiding them with a coach’s mindset? Watch this previously hosted workshop where Peace At Home Expert Aaron Weintraub, MS, focuses on the critical parenting approaches that support tweens through young adulthood.  

Starting in the pre-teen years, we’ll explore key strategies that help foster independence while nurturing emotional growth and strong problem-solving skills. You’ll learn how to gradually shift from being the “CEO” of your child’s life to something more like a Coach, supporting their development, empowering their decision-making, and helping them build the skills they need. 

This workshop will equip you with practical, actionable strategies that help your child develop the skills, confidence, and mindset needed to thrive. Listen in to learn how to coach your child through the journey to independent adulthood with confidence, resilience, and self-sufficiency.

Balancing Kids, Grandparents, Gifts and More. The holidays are meant to bring joy—but for many parents, they also come with stress, family pressure, and competing expectations. Between excited kids, endless gift lists, and well-meaning grandparents who may have very different ideas about what’s “best,” it’s easy to feel overwhelmed.

This year, join Peace At Home founder Ruth Freeman, LCSW and guest Cora D’Alessandro, MA for a Lunch & Learn Discussion that will help parents of children of all ages create more meaningful, joyful holidays—without the stress.

Ruth and Cora will share practical strategies and compassionate insights on how to manage holiday stress, honor family traditions, and set loving boundaries with grandparents while keeping the focus on connection. You’ll learn how to collaborate across generations to create celebrations that feel good for everyone—especially your kids.

Lighten the Mental Load: Create a Meaningful Low-Stress Holiday Season

Take This Workshop

Experts

Peace at Home Parenting Expert Aaron Weintraub Aaron Weintraub,MS, Curriculum Advisor Peace at Home expert Lucinda Gibbons Lucinda Gibbons,MMFT

Challenges & Solutions

The holidays are meant to bring joy. But for many parents, they also bring pressure, endless planning, and the weight of everyone else’s expectations. In fact, one poll found 20% of parents say holiday stress negatively affects family life – and nearly twice as many moms as dads rate their stress levels as “high.”

In this workshop, we’ll explore how to share the mental load of holiday prep and planning, and how to set clear expectations and boundaries. We’ll also show you ways to make the planning process part of your family connection, rather than a solo burden. Whether you’re parenting solo or with a partner, and whatever your children’s ages, you’ll leave with practical tools to bring more ease, equity, and joy into your holiday season – starting with Halloween!

Parents are craving:

  • Recognition of the invisible labor they carry (especially for moms).
  • Tools to communicate, collaborate, and share the load — especially with partners and older kids.
  • A path to connection, not just survival, through the holidays.
  • Relief from being the “default planner” of every meal, gift, and moment.

Let’s do this together. Join us for straight talk, simple solutions, and practical ways to create less stress and more joy, so your whole family can look forward to the holiday season!
