WHO'S IT FOR

This is for you if you've ever…

✔️ Said "good job" on autopilot — to dishes being cleared, shoes on the right feet, anything really

✔️Watched your kid stop trying things unless you were watching

✔️Felt like the only way to get cooperation was nagging or bribery

✔️Wished your kid would just do the thing without you reminding them five times

✔️Wanted to raise kids who don't need an audience to feel proud of themselves

If any of that sounds familiar, this is for you.

FROM THE MAKER

I made this because I needed it.

I'm Sharlie. I'm a mom of 6 on the North Shore of O'ahu, and I haven't mastered any of this.

I still say "good job" on autopilot. I still forget what I meant to say in the moment and revert to whatever comes out first. This isn't a toolkit written from the other side of having figured it out — it's written from the middle of the journey.

I started collecting these phrases because I couldn't remember them when it mattered. I taped them to my wall where I'd see them. They didn't change everything — but they made me a little more aware. A little more conscientious about the words I'm choosing.
I'm sharing this not because I've got it together. I'm sharing it because I think other moms might need the same reminders I do.
