We imagined that we’d be filled with gratitude not anxiety, joy not fear, that we’d relax with our kids, instead of overreact, dwell on their masterpieces instead of their mistakes, and savor the moment—instead of missing it and wondering where time flew.

We never envisioned power struggles and short fuses, because we never realized our children would innocently call up all our fears and unmet needs from our own childhood. Lu sheds a floodlight on why knowing our “story” is so crucial to freeing us and our kids from the need to re-enact our old scripts.

Lu presents a hopeful and illuminating workshop on how we can “write our own story,” and allow our children to live theirs.

"We were absolutely blown away by you and your presentation. We know so much of the way we want to be as parents, but can't quite figure out all of the things that are blocking us from getting there. You so eloquently gave us such amazing food for thought and discussion. The road map is priceless! Thank you so much for calling us back to our intuitive selves."

"Incredible! You have an amazing gift for speaking to all kinds of people wherever they may be in their life journey, and whatever their choices are."

"Your book got me through the hardest time of my life as a new mother. I didn’t know what to expect coming to hear you speak. It was so much more than I could have hoped to hear and learn. My mind is reeling with excitement, and my heart feels so full. Instead of feeling guilty and lousy about all the things I’m not doing perfectly, I honestly feel better about my flaws! Thank you immensely for letting me know I can use what I’ve got, that those tools are more than enough to raise my child the best way I can."

"Outstanding! Coming here today and hearing you speak, I was in tears of acknowledgment. You blew the lid off my ceiling, removed the veil, lifted my fog, and gave me a huge boost. I am so charged! Thank you SO much."

"I just got out of an abusive marriage and felt so guilty that I didn’t get out sooner for my kids. After your Flawed Parent session, I feel like this is the first day of my life! I feel so empowered."

"Absolutely awesome! I can’t explain how important it was for me to hear what you had to say today."

"I drove four hours to attend this conference, and as far as I am concerned, your talk was worth the entire trip and weekend. Thank you."

"I wish this workshop lasted all year! Can you call me every day and talk me through my life? Thank you for the inspiration."
