"Transformative, powerful, and nothing short of amazing."

The TEACH model helped me shift my parenting from "power-over" to "relationship with." I opened the first Teach Through Love inspired school.  My journey has been transformative, powerful, and nothing short of amazing. This is how we change the world!"

"Nothing short of amazing."

—Emily McCrea


"I found Lori's work to be critical in supporting my clients."

I am a pediatric occupational therapist and found Lori's work to be critical in supporting my clients and parents/caregivers. I have two boys, ages 12 and 6. You better believe I lean on everything Lori taught me on a daily basis. 

Kelly Flemetakis, OTR/L, Parent Educator

We’ve been taught that focusing on feelings coddles children.

The research shows the opposite. Teaching emotional intelligence builds resilience and independence, preparing children for the "real world."

"It all started to become easier."

 When my daughter was born. I didn't know how to handle myself. I was scared, so I started looking for books and trainings and many different things that could help me. I got to another program, and I trained as a parent educator. But still, I felt that something was missing because I was using the tools but still feeling the anger. I didn't know why. I found your class, and it all started to change, and it all started to become easier.

Before You Enroll, Read This

  • What can I do as a Teach Through Love Instructor?

    The training prepares you to facilitate in-person or online classes with a ready-to-use curriculum and time-tested process.

    We believe the course is best offered in group settings where parents can share their experiences and foster relationships within the community. However the course can be adapted and facilitated in 1:1 sessions.

    There are so many opportunities to bring the principles of conscious parenting into the world. With a current license, you can work locally within your community or online for up to one year. Hold group support sessions and use the Workbook to facilitate discussions with or without streaming the videos. These are just a few examples of how you can work as a parenting class facilitator.

    Please note - I cannot provide personal job assistance or partnerships or offer business, legal, or marketing advice. However, because I no longer work privately with parents, I am continually referring people to our Teach Community.

  • What's included in the course materials?

    Parenting Class Training Manual & Videos

    Digital Workbook, Study Guide, & Lesson Plans.
    1 deck of Conscious Communication Cards.
    Access to my library of online programs.
    Access video interviews, discussions and over 60 hours of cataloged parent Q&A's to reference and support your learning.

  • Can I charge for my parenting classes?

    Yes! As a Parenting Class Instructor, you may charge attendees. Many begin by offering free classes, but this is dependent on your personal experience.

    Many Facilitators choose a per-couple rate or offer sliding scale rates depending on the needs of their community. What you charge is based on many factors, including how you structure your classes (length) and where you offer them (online or in-person).

    Many Instructors will connect with family service agencies or local schools and offer the classes for a flat rate. It's up to you!

  • What is the cost of the program?

    The tuition for the training and licensing is $1497. There is a payment plan option.

    Please consider carefully whether this is the right program for you. No refunds will be granted once your registration is complete. In the case of unexpected emergencies, you may pause your license for a limited time.
