"It is not what you do for your children, but what you have taught them to do for themselves that will make them successful." 
~Ann Landers

 

My name is Holli Howard, founder of Positive Living Coaching. As a certified life coach and parenting educator with a BS in psychology, my passion is empowering parents to develop strategies that:

  • promote the physical and emotional well-being of their children
  • strengthen the connection with their kids 
  • and, ultimately, create a calm and happy home

I understand the profound importance of raising emotionally healthy children, so they have the best chance of becoming emotionally healthy adults. Many years ago, I uncovered a big trauma that had impacted me when I was young. Throughout my journey, I have learned about some little traumas that have affected me as well. Overall, although I had a strong foundation during my childhood with an amazing mother, I saw how these experiences shaped me and weakened my self-acceptance and feelings of self-worth. These feelings caused struggles not only in my childhood, but into my adult life as well. I have worked really hard to overcome these feelings.

These personal experiences, as well as my professional work in the field of child welfare, have inspired my career path. I offer coaching and education services that provide practical, empowering tools to help parents understand their past experiences and how those impact their own parenting. I also have proven strategies to help them be resourceful, successful parents who know how to promote the physical and emotional well-being of their children, resulting in a more harmonious home… and kids who value their self-worth.
