“Moms deserve to know all this information … we deserve to transform, to be able to heal, to see that there's a different path. {To know} that we can take responsibility and change our path to free ourselves.” 

Mariana Lelo, a Jai Certified Parenting Coach, began her journey into peaceful Empowered Parenting™ because she knew in her heart that there had to be an alternative to repeating the patterns of parenting that she had experienced and wished to let go of.

Mariana was struggling in her motherhood and wondered how she could be truly successful and provide a better environment for her kids. She felt frustrated and insecure in her parenting and she sincerely wanted more for herself and her family. 

She began researching, reading book after book, and going through parenting courses. During that discovery process she started working with a Jai Parent Coach. Being introduced to the world of peaceful empowered parenting, Mariana witnessed the profound transformation in her own family and was deeply called to share this work with other moms.

“With my older daughter, the one that I was struggling with the most, my relationship with her is completely different. I now can connect with her – she sees me in a different way.”

During the pandemic, Mariana knew that this unique and challenging time was the most necessary time to share these tools with other moms who were no doubt struggling. 

Mariana graduated from the Jai Parenting Coach certification program in February of this year, and has gone out into the world to share this work though her own parent coaching business. She is now sharing her passion for helping mothers create connection with their children by creating opportunities for deep transformation through a spiritual lens. As a bilingual coach, she predominantly shares her work with Spanish speaking families.

Mariana says, “We as moms deserve to know all this information we have. We deserve to transform, to be able to heal, to see that there's a different path. {To know} that we can take responsibility and change our path to free ourselves”

“It’s not about me, because I know it’s working for me already, so if I can help only one mom out there to have a better connection with her kid, I’m thrilled.”

To have gone from being coached by a parent coach to now being a parent coach herself, Mariana is endlessly passionate about giving other parents access to these tools that have changed her relationship with her kids, but also her relationship with herself. 

Mariana describes her daily approach to her parent coaching business, “I work a lot on my ‘why.’ Why am I sharing this? And it’s like baby steps, every day I have to work on myself, every day I have to align my energy to be able to go out there and share.”

Working on her “why” everyday fuels Mariana's desire to get herself out there in her business and in her work, to create transformation in the families she serves. Her business not only enhances her coaching and the transformation that she brings to families, but also enhances her own parenting and personal growth journey.

Mariana says, “Becoming a parenting coach is one of the best things you can do for your life and for your family because you’re really not {just} changing yourself, you are being able to give the best tools you can give to your children so they can become the best versions of themselves.”
