Kind words from my valued clients

Joss’s Aware Parenting Teenagers Course has truly been a game-changer for our family. We were facing so many stressful moments, and our relationship, especially with one of our teens, was at an all-time low.

The course provided us with incredibly insightful tools and strategies, and Joss’s ongoing support during the live rounds has been nothing short of amazing. She has such a compassionate and knowledgeable approach, and her guidance has made a world of difference. Thanks to Joss, we’ve not only turned things around, but our family dynamic has improved in ways we never thought possible. We are forever grateful and really looking forward to the next live round!

For the past 12 months, Joss has walked alongside me as I took a deep dive into Aware Parenting. She has an incredible gift for creating a safe, nonjudgmental, and compassionate space where I could show up exactly as I am. Joss taught me a new ‘language’ with Aware Parenting while also helping me develop deep compassion for myself and my inner child. Through her unwavering support, Joss has shown me what it truly feels like to be unconditionally loved—a gift I can now pass on to my children. I will always hold a special place in my heart for Joss, and I am deeply grateful for her guidance and care.

Joss I slept almost 11 hours last night! Thank you for your loving attention and kindness. It was very healing and reaches right down to the root of my difficulties.

I noticed my girl was so snuggly this am for much longer than usual - an energetic shift happened within myself I’m guessing and helped to free her a little bit more.

I met her with a loving warmth and when she did eventually wave some flags I put up a loving limit which eventually resulted in tears in my lap. A happy girl emerged from that release! Yay!

Haley

My time spent receiving Aware Parenting Support from Joss has been so healing and helpful. I've worked with Joss for a lengthy period of time now, and after each session I feel better equipped to face the challenges of parenting. I also feel so celebrated when I share the joys of parenting with Joss. Joss is like the aunty we all wish we had. She is a beautiful listener, and I'm often struck by how non-judgemental and affirming Joss is of my own parenting capacities. I'm just so grateful for you, Joss.

Felicity

I adore your podcast and have learned so much through my many hours of listening ~ thank you!

Kirsten

Hello Joss. I just want to say thank you again because, reading the books, it all sounds great and I love it and I agree. But then putting into practice, it helps so much to have you break it down and apply it to our situation - it sounds so simple! I feel like I know the concepts but when it comes to our life, I guess I am so embroiled in it, I don’t see where it fits. So thank you so much. It’s made a really big difference to my family. Thank you.

Deb

Thank you Joss. Thank you for giving me the listening I never received. Thank you for creating a safe space where I could say anything without fear of judgement or pressure. Thank you for adding your voice to my inner voice, who has become enormously more empathic and loving. Thank you for trusting that I would come up with the answers in due time.

Joy

I just feel drawn to send this email to you. Thank you so much for supporting me this year and being a compassionate ear to listen to so much that happened. It has been such a big year for my family and I so appreciate having your support during some of those hard times.

I also really love your podcast and I just want to put out there that you are doing such important work in the world and it’s so inspiring.

I hope to work with you again in the future.

Lots of love always

Elizabeth

I love my sessions with Joss so much. It’s a special time for me each fortnight where I can leave my parenting behind for an hour and turn up exactly how I am and how I’m feeling. I see Joss like my kind humble auntie who loves me no matter what I share, offers me such deep compassion and empathy, has beautiful ways to drop me deeper into my experience and has great aware parenting ideas when I need them. I feel safe, unconditionally loved and deeply listened to. I feel so grateful to have found Joss’s support during early motherhood.

Sian

Thank you so much for the workshop Joss. It was a profound experience diving into Aware Parenting with you. I got so much out of the sharing we did in the group and all of your own personal stories and anecdotes really helped bring the AWP theory to life. Thank you for holding such a safe space for us all. It was truly a special experience.

Nathalie

Thank you Joss for running your beautiful workshop 'Supporting our Children with Aware Parenting'. Joss creates such a warm and welcoming space for learning. The information was presented with clarity and there were lots of opportunities for participants to engage with questions. I came away with a deeper understanding around the foundations of Aware Parenting and would highly recommend this course to anyone embracing this parenting philosophy.

Belinda

Working with Joss has been a deeply transformative experience for me. As a psychotherapist, I recognise the value of regular therapy, but the past six months with Joss have provided support in ways I never anticipated. She expertly combines Aware Parenting principles with compassionate listening and her extensive knowledge of various therapeutic techniques.

Being able to send voice notes was particularly beneficial; her reassuring and empathetic responses often moved me to tears. Her insights on Aware Parenting have significantly improved my relationship with my children, making me more playful and connected, and allowing me to embrace their feelings on a much deeper level—even after 15 years as a therapist. Her rich experience with Aware Parenting within her own family shines through, and I appreciated her thoughtful reflections. I've developed a deeper connection with myself and a more compassionate inner voice. If you're seeking support for parenting and personal healing, I wholeheartedly recommend working with Joss. I am truly grateful to you Joss, thank you!
