Cai specialises in supporting families overcoming obstacles; including communication issues, loss and trauma, so that they can enjoy a brighter future. Her mission?: To Help Parents Support their Children through Adolescence; so that together we can Build a Mentally Healthier and Happier Generation of Young People. A stint as a Childline volunteer ( a UK based charity for young people ) inspired Cai to train as a parenting specialist; the stories she heard as she developed more of an understanding of what these children and teens were struggling with, were the motivator to retrain and to support children and their parents through adolescence. 50% of mental health issues start before the age of 14, so how much of this can be remedied by the right support to create the Happy Parent = Happy Child dynamic? In creating the Peak Parenting framework and The Teen Toolbox™️ series, Cai helps parents reconnect with their children. Her work is about encouraging investment in our children, investment in their future and, ultimately, investment in the next generation. With so much media support and high profile outlets for peri-natal and early years support, Cai is on a mission to shine a light on teen parenting and to start the open conversations that we are already having around maternity and early stage parenting. The shame and guilt around parenting can be catastrophic and extends throughout our journey as parents. We are starting to overcome this and be open about the truths of maternity and early stage parenting but we have a long way to go when it comes to parenting through adolescence. Why is it so difficult for us to talk about? Cai understands that much of it comes from the perceived notion that to admit the struggle is to admit to failure as a parent. Cai suggests that we have to be kinder to ourselves as parents. “The adolescent years are when, in many ways, a child becomes a ‘real person’. They become their own person. Emotions, trauma and confusions are amplified and the parenting game suddenly escalates into a new phase. The goal posts change, the teams switch ends at half time, but we don’t give ourselves the flexibility to change with them. This is when cracks can appear. We come at parenting with the best intentions but we have no manual for what the job of a lifetime throws at us. At school we are taught algebra, not how to communicate effectively, not self value and self worth and not how to parent and run a family. So, why are we so hard on ourselves when we feel that we aren’t doing well enough?” Cai is keen to debunk the myths that ‘By asking for help, you are proving that you’re not a good parent’ and ‘by asking for help, you are betraying your child, criticising them and letting them down’. Investing in a business coach is often only ever seen as a positive. Investing in a life coach is a powerful way to move your life forward. Why should investing in a parenting coach be any different?

Londen Underwood, the CEO of Emerald Rising, has always had a passion for helping others. From the time that she could walk, to the numerous shopping adventures every weekend she spent with her mother, to various jobs in retail, one might say that shopping was in her blood. However, she would have never imagined that her passion to help others would involve utilizing her innate fashion sense and stylish ways. Helping others comes in various forms, but as for Londen, her personal fulfillment of helping others comes when she can improve people's confidence by helping them to perfect their own personal style. Londen realized that she had a genuine talent in this field when her family and friends would ask her countless times what they should wear or about the latest fashion trends. After years of providing her close friends and family with style and fashion tips, and presenting her expertise on style through her blog http://www.mslulu2u.blogspot.com, Londen decided to take her passion a step further. In the spring of 2014, Londen launched her own image consulting business. The success of this has now inspired Londen to take her business a step further by assisting people in more ways than just personal style. In the summer of 2016, Londen launched Emerald Rising LLC. Londen's vision for Emerald Rising is to provide men and women the techniques that they need to improve their self-confidence, and give them the tools, not only to makeover and identify their own personal style, but to make over all aspects of their life. Emerald Rising also works with organizations, businesses, and musicians including Phillip “Dr. Philgood” Graves and Rachael Gray, by providing self-esteem seminars, artist development, and image branding. Londen has also worked as a costume designer for the stage play "Girlfriends and God: The Retreat", and has served as a wardrobe assistant for the short film Love in All the Wrong Places and has worked as a stylist on photo shoots for businesses. Londen continues to improve the lives of others through style by building their confidence with her makeover specials and personal branding. Londen has her MA in Human Service Counseling: Life Coaching from Liberty University.

Business Owner. Marketing Professional. Leader. Team Builder. Student. For over 15 years I have the honor of working with some of the world's bigger brands along with over 400 small businesses! I believe the key to success is seeing the possibilities in every situation. Because of that, I am never afraid to initiate game-changing, innovative strategies for my company. I thrive in achieving the impossible and seeing business goals overturn the status quo. This mindset has led me to mentor others and share my principles by speaking to others. I believe that while we are living in an "instant, online world" that the art of building personal relationships will always be invaluable. I think the most vibrant and growing companies will implement both online and offline strategies to be successful. Believe me when I say that the Internet and social media is not going away and it is certainly not a passing fad. It is only going to get bigger and bigger and if you are not on board chances are the competition is going to pass you by. I thrive in taking a stagnant communication, processes and marketing strategies and flipping it on its side, to create raving fans!
