For Conscious Parents and Individuals Who Want To Build Their Coaching
Skills and Use THOSE Skills To Help Others
Have You Ever Considered Becoming a Parenting Coach?
For a few select parents I'll show you everything you need to know...
Do you want to take your natural passion and skills to new heights?
Do you want to parent in a way that allows you to grow and evolve alongside your kids?
Do you envision an even better future for children and want to be part of that change?
Parenting, hands down is the most challenging job you will ever do. It can turn a sane person wild with anger and take the self image we hold of ourselves as patient and calm and throw it out the window.
Few things can give us insights into our negative patterns and internal struggles like raising our children…and yet, our kids are able to release more love in us than we ever thought possible.
Parenting can often feel like a world of extremes.
The reason for this is due to our identity, which is the way we see ourselves and the world.
We become VERY attached to that identity. Whenever we bump into things which are aligned with our identity we feel good.
When we bump into things which are not aligned, we can feel frustrated, angry, defensive, worried and find ourselves in a power struggle with our kids.
The good news is there are mind-sets and skills which can dramatically transform how we show up in life and the relationships with our children.
We can create new identities and healthier patterns when we understand the roots of where they came from in the first place.
In essence we can become aware of everything (conscious and unconscious) that has limited, stifled, wronged, hurt and saddened us.
This is vital to know, before we can move past things, that hold us back from what we want in life.
It doesn’t matter how loving or difficult our upbringing may have been. Many of us want to parent in a new and improved way than how we were raised.
This is why a massive shift is taking place.
Parents no longer wish to parent in a top down, hieracheal do-as-I-say approach. We feel there must be another way to reach our kids, without screaming, alienation, sadness, distance or pain.
A deeper knowing is stirring inside us. We want to partner with our children. Raise our own level of consciousness so we continue to learn and grow alongside them.
Why Is This Shift Occurring?
Access to more information, meditation and tapping into our intuition…all serve as a wake up call. We are learning, ever so slowly, how important it is to be gentler, calmer and more loving towards ourselves first. We’ve also become courageous enough to tap into our own emotional wounding and get deeper insights into our own personal struggles.
We are searching for a way to untangle the past and learn new parenting moves so we can positively change behaviours both in ourselves and our kids. Then, we can resolve the daily struggles, so we don’t repeat mistakes and live with the emotional turmoil that comes with it.
If you’re wondering what’s waiting on the other side of that soulful work?
More Connection. More Authenticity. More Joy. More Self Love. With Everyone. Period.
Welcome to the
Build Great Minds Academy
Here's the program outline:
Week 1-4 Awakened Parent
- Personalized one-on-one coaching. Focus is on supporting you in your parenting and guiding you on how to further build, maintain and restore relationships with your children.
- Help you to become deeply attuned to what’s going on unconsciously within you and your children and build alignment with your partners or family.

- Discover and develop our mindfulness habits
- Engage others you trust in helping build your self awareness, self discovery and self growth.
- Connect with your inner child. Note: Inner child work is the process of contacting, understanding, embracing and healing your inner child. Your inner child represents your first original self that entered into this world; it contains your capacity to experience wonder, joy, innocence, sensitivity and playfulness. This reconnection allows you to access the fragmented parts of yourself so that you can discover the root of your phobias, fears, insecurities, and self-sabotaging inclinations.

IMPORTANT: Being a Parent Coach Does NOT
Mean You Need To Be a Perfect Parent!
Let me lay that to rest. There are no perfect parents just as there are no perfect kids.
Sure, I get it wrong with my kids at times. It may come in the tone I used, words I said in frustration or a moment of mis-understanding.
We are all human.
Since there is no statute of limitations to heal something with a child, once we know how, we can use those moments to not only heal but create deeper, richer intimacy and connection with our kids.
Thus, there are never any truly bad moments in parenting.
If The Build Great Minds Parenting Academy speaks to your deepest desires and you want to play your part in becoming a catalyst for change, then reach out.
Here's what of my recent graduates have to say...
“I am loving building the course of my dreams with Rhea. With Rheaís guidance and her extensive knowledge she is helping me form a course that I think will change my community.
Our ideas flow easily together and I learn something new in each sessions that I can not only apply to the course we are building together but also to mine and my families everyday lives.
Rhea is so easy and fun to work with and is always there at the end of a skype call or an email if I need her help with the course or my kids. She is incredibly insightful and generous with her time and knowledge and I know takes her time with me and what we are building very seriously.
I would recommend this Academy for any one who wants to make an impact in their personal, family and business life.”
– Anna Keam (Australia, 2 children)
“I think my old beliefs initially held me back from joining this program. I thought ‘I’m not capable of becoming a coach’ and ‘I just won’t get it’ or “Don’t do it, parents will never seek ME for help!”
I’m so glad I had the urge to explore this more. How great it will be to share these skills through coaching and offer workshops in the Netherlands.
This is where the journey with Rhea starts off… Her belief in me was bigger than anyone else had before. The real me was growing and my body and mind were beginning to believe that I could become an extraordinary coach and parent.
There were some big healing moments during coaching sessions with Rhea.
My parents told me one day they noticed my son’s behaviours had changed. They said “He’s not so angry and frustrated anymore and he is so kind and more at ease, how great that is to see.” I’m also continuing to create a deeper relationship and rapport with my daughter.
I get tears in my eyes and I know that’s the work I did in the Program helped me.
Since Rhea’s Parenting Academy I am coaching clients for the first time and creating courses and delivering workshops and can expand my business. I’m so excited!
You are in the best hands ever with Rhea. She is extraordinary at what she does.”
– Bianca Hermans-Houben (Netherlands, 2 children)
