I am author of the young adult science fiction book series, Edge of Yesterday. I’m also a mom of three, a science and education writer, a coach and mentor.
I’m especially interested in the complex dynamics in mother/daughter relationships.
Part of my fascination is driven by having grown up with a talented artist mother—who was also a narcissist.
I only gained breathing room to understand the ways this affected me once my kids were old enough . . .when I had the breathing room to see what was driving me to make the choices I made.
And part of that was from seeing the friction between me and my own daughter, especially in those teen years, where identity-seeking and separation are age-appropriate—and feel so threatening.
And so, The Mother-Daughter Code (TMDC) was born. We all feel how our world is breaking open—changing so fast it’s an effort just to keep up. I want to give busy moms the breathing room, the permission, to create—and recreate—themselves.
Through TMDC, we give women the tools to “re-story” their lives, along with a practical playbook, breathing space and the permission to cultivate their creativity and take back control of their own stories—and better connect with their daughters.
