ATTUNEMENT PARENTING
noun | verb
1. A relationally intelligent approach to parenting that creates health, harmony and connection within individuals, couples and their family.
Synonyms: Emotionally Intelligent, Relational, Empathic, Available, Aware, Heart-centered, Having Healthy Interpersonal Dynamics.
A Community Council for Parents
Realize attunement through intentional parenting, practiced in community.
Attuned Parenting encourages you to know yourself deeply, to center and become “in tune” with your child’s felt sense of the world. Attunement creates empathy, resilience, and groundedness in all who experience it. You can provide your child(ren) the privileges of feeling seen, felt and known, supporting emotional development and relational capacities.
By understanding and healing your own attachment wounds, you can better prevent and repair hurt feelings that you (all parents) and others unwittingly cause in children.
In better understanding your partner’s own attachment wounds, you can eventually offer more skillful and kind reflections to each other about where your parenting efforts don’t land for your children.
We all love our children fiercely (it’s a biological imperative), so I know you’re extremely motivated to get it right. That’s good news because our children are perfectly situated to bring out both the best and the worst in us — as you’ve likely seen.
Who is the program for?
Our community members are courageous parents and co-parents who want to bring their best selves to parenting. They seek community and insights. We help them find the sweet spot: An authentic, loving parental expression of themselves that aligns with who they are, what they value, and how they like to live. We’ve guided dozens of people to find their most authentic path through parenting.
NEW PARENT – Seeking Guidance + Camaraderie
Babies bring many changes, and we’re not just talking about diapers. It’s widely known but not always openly discussed that many couples struggle to stay close after children arrive. The inevitable strains of parenthood–on your time, finances, hormones, sex, sleep, and energy–test even the strongest relationships. If you’ve experienced friction, bickering, arguing, or resentment over chores or parenting styles, that’s natural. Have you done the work to see the extent of your “shadow” side? Do you recognize the life experiences triggering you and informing your reactions with your partner? This is where a community meeting under the guidance of a knowledgeable coach and therapist like Lesley can lead to amazing breakthroughs. Skillful repair and relationship growth are conscious undertakings.
DISENCHANTED PARENTS – Needing actionable Goals + Support
If you have been working on your marriage or parenting skills for many months or years, and you are not where you want to be, we welcome you whole-heartedly. This is a place where you can get clarity on what hasn’t been working, and why. You’ll learn how to course-correct for family healing and relationship growth. The elements of reflection, loving accountability and support that the circles provide can hold you as you implement new strategies and ways of being with your family.
CONSCIOUS PARENTS – Looking to Deepen Attunement + Refine
If most of family life has been fulfilling, yet you yearn for more frequent and loving connections, you may be ready to take your family to an even deeper level of authentic love. Or, you may be fulfilled with your family but craving a community of peers on the same path of conscious parenting – who want to share the ups and downs, help you plan for your future, and celebrate and recognize you on your life’s journey as a family unit.
THE MAGIC OF FELLOWSHIP FOR PARENTS
This isn’t your typical online parenting course. It’s MUCH more.
The Fellowship Circle is a year-long immersion in an intentional, parenting community. We blend individual coaching with group work to create meaningful change.
We are the only conscious parenting offering that works side-by-side with parents and co-parents to heal your attachment wounds, create custom approaches the work for your family, increase your network of fellow travelers, all within a safe, nourishing container.
We reject the notion that conscious parenting is just a “trendy movement.” We believe that you and your family deserve to live in harmony from a place of wholeness and fullness. And we know that our community can support you as you create this kind of a family health – one that feels aligned, true and in integrity with who you are.
AFFORDABLE SELF AWARENESS
Guidance and coaching are incredibly valuable, yet most coaching programs are extremely costly. We feel SO good about the parenting circles, which offer countless opportunities for increased self-awareness and personal growth, as well as the clarity that often comes from coaching.
MOVING THROUGH SHADOW
Our personal wounds and shadows will inevitably carry over into our parenting. The circles are made to skillfully hold you as you move through wounds and shadows, and this is the gold of potent transformation that takes place during our time together.
GROUNDED CLARITY + ACTION
We believe in the power of practicality. Reflections and guidance can provide crystal clarity and perspective to resolve a blockage, or to determine which next step to take. We take a stand not just for having a Vision, but taking actionable steps that are aligned with all of who you are.
FOSTERING TRUE BELONGING
We can’t say enough about how the simple, repeated process of being witnessed and received fosters a knowing that you belong, that holds you even when circles aren’t in session. This is a safe space where your process, your fears and your successes will be lovingly witnessed by your fellow travelers.
Lesley Glenner
After 10 years of listening intimately to individuals, couples, and small groups, I’ve come to believe that the meaning of life is to become as fully and skillfully human as possible. We do that by healing our relational core wounds in relationship, and by excavating our innate wholeness, which is often buried underneath emotional injuries.
My life’s work has been to “hold space” for other people. I founded HoloBeing Healing Arts and am a practicing psychotherapist and coach. Almost daily, I bear witness to foundational breakthroughs with our clients and community members as we focus on increasing awareness and discernment. I invite you to explore the nuances and totality of your human experience, as I am still doing today. Join the growing community of conscious parents who aren’t willing to settle for the status quo.

I want to help you do what’s right for your financial situation, as it is today. Schedule a call here.
Do I need to check with my spouse first?

A time-tested approach:
Problem-solving in community
After years of offering holistic personal and professional growth programming, we noticed an essential element of growth is being witnessed in community. A facilitated community of empathetic peers can guide us to overcome the obstacles that stand in our way and the shadows that call out to us from the past. This process offers a healing balm that gives us the will to keep moving toward the Mystery that calls to each of us.
While some parents come to our program without any formal conscious parenting training of any kind, others arrive with various levels of training and savvy from prior programs. But we find that even with some “official” training, most parents lack the loving guidance and genuine support to act on their knowledge and parenting instincts in a meaningful way.
Facilitated peer communities can recognize our needs as individuals — and as couples and families — to experience powerful acts: Reflection. Holding. Guidance. Wisdom. Celebration. This kind of work reminds us of who we are, at a deep and soulful level. We then recall why we embarked on this path in the first place — Love.
What people are saying
These are the kinds of things we hear from previous (and current) clients and program participants.
A FELLOWSHIP CIRLCE FOR PARENTS IS BORN…
After years offering a holistic business development program dedicated to personal growth AND creating a flourishing practice we repeatedly notice that the essential element of growth is COMMUNITY. A foundation of solid community gives us the will to keep moving toward the Mystery that calls to each of us. It guides us to overcome the obstacles that stand in our way and the shadows that call out to us from our pasts.
Community recognizes the Hero’s Journey that we are each on, providing us with the necessary support at each turn; Reflection. Holding. Guidance. Wisdom. Celebration. Reminding us who we are really. Reminding us why we are on our path.
