If you grew up in a traditional home where emotions weren’t safe—I see you.

The fact that you’re here, choosing to do things differently, is powerful. You’re breaking cycles and creating a new path forward.

Hi! I’m KJ

................

If you grew up in a traditional home where emotions weren’t safe—and now you’re trying to parent differently—you're not alone.

Maybe you were taught to obey without question. Maybe big feelings were met with silence, punishment, or shame.

And now, as a mom, you find yourself triggered in ways you never expected—snapping at your child, feeling overwhelmed, or wondering if you’re unintentionally repeating the very patterns you swore you’d break.

I know that fear. I’ve lived it.

I’m KJ—a gentle parenting coach, a cycle-breaking mom, and someone who had to unlearn everything I thought parenting was supposed to be.

I spent years carrying the weight of my past until I realized healing me was the key to showing up as the parent I wanted to be.

I created Gentle Healing Mom for mothers like us—who love deeply, want better for their kids, and are doing the brave work of healing while parenting.

This isn’t about being perfect. It’s about learning to pause instead of react. To regulate instead of control. To reconnect with yourself so you can truly connect with your child.

If you’re on this path too, you’re in the right place. And you don’t have to walk it alone anymore.

I wasn’t always a calm, connected parent.

Before my healing journey, I was overwhelmed and reactive. I felt stuck in patterns I didn’t fully understand—snapping over small things, feeling guilty after every outburst, and constantly fearing that I was damaging the very bond I wanted to protect.

I was parenting from a place of pain, not peace.

But once I started unpacking my triggers and reconnecting with my inner child, everything began to shift. I learned how to pause before reacting, how to regulate my emotions, and how to show up for my son in the ways I always needed growing up.

Now, I parent from intention instead of fear.
I still have hard days—because healing isn’t linear—but I no longer feel like I’m drowning in shame or stuck in survival mode.

And I want that kind of transformation for you too.

My mission is to help moms break generational cycles

I want to support moms who are parenting differently than how they were raised. The moms who are learning how to regulate, connect, and heal as they go.

Every step you take toward awareness and compassion creates lasting change for you, your children, and the generations that follow.

You are creating a new legacy for your family.
