(1-Day Parent/Caregiver Course)

Whether you're a new parent or a seasoned caregiver, this course is perfect for anyone looking to improve their parenting techniques. Don't miss out on this opportunity to connect with other parents and learn valuable insights that will benefit you and your family.

About This Class

Traditional parenting models often boil down to two axes: demandingness and responsiveness. But what if that map is outdated?

Earned Autocracy & Autonomy is a parenting approach for caregivers ready to explore parenting through the lens of the Sensory System, Self/Co-regulation and Autonomy vs Autocracy — not just power or permissiveness.

Facilitated by Dr. Amaris, this session unpacks five essential dimensions that redefine what it means to LEAD, not BOSS a child — or yourself — with embodied accountability and attuned authority.

Frequently asked questions

What is the "Earned Autocracy & Autonomy" course about?

Q: Who is this course for?

A: Caregivers and parents seeking a conscious, regulation-focused approach to parenting, emphasizing personal leadership, neurodiversity, and emotional safety.

Q: What does semi-anonymous mean in this context?

A: The first half of the course will feature one-way presentations with participants' identities concealed. You can ask questions anytime via chat, but they will only be answered during designated Q&A segments to keep us on schedule.

Q: Will I have opportunities to identify myself or participate more actively?

A: Yes. After the 1-hour mid-day break, participants can choose to participate in various interactive activities, including role-plays, join breakout rooms to practice new knowledge, and attend a final live Q&A session.
