Instead of feeling overwhelmed by the endless laundry and meals and school drop-off and all the stuff all over the place all the time>> You felt at ease
Instead of eating their crusts when you load the dishwasher
>> You got your basic needs met
Instead of losing your shit when your child refuses to wear pants
>> You kept it together, with ease
Instead of automatically heading to that mom forum when you don’t know how to handle your child’s pants situation
>> You trusted yourself
Instead of never spending time with your friends (or feeling mom-guilt when you do)>> You nurtured the entirety of your human experience
Instead of avoiding your partner because you're so spent and touched out and have nothing more to give
>> You sought out your person because you have interest and capacity
Instead of constantly rushing from one thing to the next
>> You felt like you had plenty of time, because you do
Instead of letting it derail you when things go sideways, which they will, even when you do everything "right,"
>> You stayed cool and pivoted, because you know your plans are there to support you, not control you
Instead of feeling like you never measure up to some standard of motherhood
>> YOU defined that standard for yourself. And it’s enough. Because you’re enough. And now you know it.
Go back with me to when I had two under two.
I was losing it on my toddler regularly. Major mom-rage, then mom-shame. Nothing was easy. Nothing was fun.
Everything that had brought me success in life — high standards, hard work, researching the best way to do things and doing them well — brought me to my knees as a parent. I was lost in motherhood, and I was failing at it. At least, that's what my brain told me. I knew I needed to find another way.
Here's how I shifted: I tuned into my values and let them guide my decisions. I learned about my temperament and tendencies and started taking care of my nervous system. I learned to pause. I accepted that things I'd expected to be easy turned out to be hard for me and started making accommodations. I simplified and systematized. I started meeting my own needs. I rose into a version of motherhood that's more simple and sustainable, more intuitive and authentic. And I want that for you.
One of my clients put it this way: By bringing both insight and structure, I help her feel capable. If you're ready to tap into your inner knowing and start doing motherhood differently, I'm here for you.
I guide you to envision and declare what good could look like for you. Your desire is your roadmap. The transformation begins with the declaration.
You start doing things differently. You're showing up for yourself in sustainable, supportive ways. We fine-tune the what, when, and how over the course of our time together.
You don't need to go it alone anymore. I've got you with regular coaching calls and quick responses to your questions in between,
Motherhood feels different now. You aren't as overwhelmed as often. You laugh more. You feel lighter. You have the confidence that comes with trusting yourself. You've found your flow, and in it your fulfillment.
In our 3 months together, I’ll lead you from a mom-life that has you scrolling your phone on the toilet for one GD minute of peace to a life that feel like home.

"After we talked I arranged more childcare, recommitted to my personal training time, and scheduled date night with my husband every Thursday. I feel amazing. This weekend was wonderful. No Sunday night rage!"
— AR, San Francisco, mom of 2
"I enjoyed being able to talk out my daily and weekly schedule to figure out what was and wasn't working. Talking it through and being asked relevant questions helped me realize where I needed guidance."— Cary, San Francisco, mom of 2
"Taking a deep breath, owning the reality of it, and finding a way around it was really the most powerful thing you gave me."
— Friday A., San Francisco, mom of 2
"One of the things that has stuck with me specifically is just how nice it was for somebody to listen so intently and witness challenges. I didn't know I needed that."
— Alison, East Providence, Rhode Island, mom of 2
"I feel safe in your non-judgey aura."
— Jay Jay, San Francisco, mom of 3
"Erika is the best. Truly. Intuitive but always learning. Wise but relatable. Graceful but scrappy. Not perfect but seemingly so. Open minded, open hearted, open book. She’ll get into the weeds with you, share her highest and lowest moments, and find the threads that bring you back to the garden, the big picture. She feels like a friend, coach, sister, and favorite aunt all rolled into one. So very warm. Forever grateful."
