Review
Casey O’Roarty is the authentic friend who tells the truth about the struggles of parenting, and is the wise guide who provides powerful tools to help us be our best selves as parents. Her “breath, body, balcony” strategy is a gem! — Dr. Tina Payne Bryson, Ph.D., LCSW, Co-author of the bestsellers The Whole-Brain Child & No-Drama Discipline
Casey's imagery of a freight train pulling into the station really captures the magnitude of what a draining experience parenting can feel like. Her strategies to learn to let the train pass by is the greatest gift of self-preservation and we should all practice it not just in parenting but in all areas of our lives. — Shawn Fink, Founder of The Abundant Mama Project
Do you love being a parent—except for "those times" when you don't? Did you really believe you could be a perfect parent—and then beat up on yourself because you couldn't? After all, you "knew" better. You are going to love this book. It is for "real" parents, imperfect parents who need to know they are not alone; and will feel encouraged by the many tips on how to handle the ups and downs of parenting. — Dr. Jane Nelsen, author and co-author of the Positive Discipline series of books
Casey O’Roarty’s book, Joyful Courage: Calming the Drama and Taking Control of Your Parenting Journey is as good as an overdue lunch date with a BFF—one that gets you, listens really well, and gives great advice without being bossy.

She shows us what’s needed: self-awareness, loads of compassion, and practice, practice, practice. Because let’s face it, we're all learning how to better handle our emotions. — Sarah MacLaughlin, social worker and author of What Not to Say: Tools for Talking with Young Children
Joyful Courage is a beautiful invitation for parents to embrace a heart-felt, positive approach to raising their children, no matter their child's wiring or the challenges they may be facing. Casey's honesty will remind you you're not alone while showing you how to "be" with what is and create a more peaceful, respectful dynamic in your family. — Debbie Reber, founder of TiLT Parenting and author of "Differently Wired"
