About the Mighties Brainy Guides
The Full(ish) Story
Before you begin this great quest, let's start at the beginning, with a little about myself. I’m a solo mum of seven who, like many people, has walked through challenges (such as childhood trauma, domestic violence, homelessness and addiction). Today, I have found real freedom while juggling homeschooling, studying animal science, and caring for several animals. I have a passion to squeeze words into sentences and do so during the tiny pockets of time that appear between snack requests, study and sibling debates. At this point, I’m fairly certain my to-do list has its own to-do list.
​From early on, I knew I needed real healing, and that there had to be a better way to raise children than nagging, pleading, and eventually throwing your hands up in frustration. I wanted effective resources that would make family life seem more like a team adventure than a combat sport. So, after thirty years of parenting, plenty of mistakes, ample research (and perhaps a bit (okay a lot) of desperation and divine intervention), the Mighties Brainy Guides were born.
​
Once I saw the difference these books made, keeping them to myself felt a bit like hiding the good snacks. So, I decided to share them as an open buffet for those who just wanted to expand their skills (no stretchy pants required) or a soup kitchen for simply starving for a solution. You can think of them as an opportunity to share quality moments and potentially learn a thing or two (or ten). Yet, just like at an all-you-can-eat restaurant, some children are enthusiastic tasters, and others prefer to circle the table twelve times before nibbling a single chip. The aim here is to keep it low-pressure and cheerful regardless (these resources can help you with that too!). Keep an eye out for the blue pages dedicated to Grown-Ups, as they offer hints to help your household run more like a fine dining experience than feeding time at the zoo (or at least operate like a bistro with crayons). For best results, team the Brainy Guides up with the Superpowered Parenting Handbook. It’s basically an extreme makeover for the whole family, minus the dramatic before‑shots and the crying in the driveway (hopefully).
