ABOUT

Melissa Coyné, Instructor & RIE® Associate

Bringing up children and adults is no easy task for parents or professionals. Part of the human experience is the recycling of generations; what goes in comes out, what is planted is harvested, for better or worse. Digging deep into the roots can nourish the soil with tears of both grief and rejuvenation so that the seeds we spread for the future can emerge with confidence, strength, and clarity. Intentional relationships rooted in respect can create individuals who are seen, understood, and valued for their unique selves and their interconnectedness. Respect begets respect. Join me in revolutionizing the care of young children and, in turn, ourselves.
