You've been taking care of everyone. This is your turn.
A 7-week Positive Intelligence® group for women seeking peace of mind caring for their aging parents, starting Wednesday, February 3, 2027.
You're the one who gets the call. You handle the appointments, the worry, and the hard conversations, on top of your work, your family, and your own life. This small group gives you practical tools to quiet the guilt, the 2 a.m. what-ifs, and the voice that says you're never doing enough, so you can show up for your parents without losing yourself.
Does this sound like you?
You're carrying more than anyone can see
Maybe your parents still live on their own, and you're quietly holding things together. Maybe you're managing from across town or across the country. You might not call yourself a caregiver, but you're the one everyone counts on.
You lie awake running their lives in your head, and your stomach drops every time the phone rings.
No matter how much you do, it never feels like enough, and you feel guilty when life gets busy and you haven't called.
Your parent pushes back on help, and you're stuck between respecting their independence and keeping them safe.
You're grieving the parent they used to be, while they're still here.
Old family roles are resurfacing with your siblings, and somehow it all lands on you.
Between your parents, your work, your partner, your kids, and your own changing body, there's nothing left for you.
If you nodded along, you're not alone, and you don't have to keep running on empty.
What's possible
Imagine handling all of this from a calmer place
You can't control your parents' health or choices. You can change how you meet them. Over seven weeks, you'll build the mental habits so you can:
Visit your mom or dad without spending the drive home replaying everything you should have said.
Let the phone ring without your stomach dropping.
Meet a parent with patience instead of exasperation.
Make hard care decisions from clarity, without the 2 a.m. second-guessing.
Know what's truly yours to carry, and what you can share or let go.
Make room for your own needs, energy, and priorities again.
The result: peace of mind about your parents, and room for your own life again.
Positive Intelligence® Program
What is the PQ® Program?
The PQ® Program from Positive Intelligence® is a neuroscience-based program that helps you break free from self-sabotaging patterns and build mental fitness through short, consistent daily practice. Most attempts at lasting change fail because they don't reach the root cause. PQ® goes straight to the mental habits that drive stress and overwhelm.
Why it fits caregiving: You can't take a vacation from worrying about your parents. PQ® gives you tools that work in the moment: in the parking lot after a doctor's appointment, on a tense call with your sibling, or at 2 a.m. when your mind won't stop running through their lives.
What you'll learn: Three skills that change how you show up
Catch your Saboteurs. Learn to spot the inner voices that make this season harder than it has to be: the Judge that says you're never doing enough, the Hyper-Vigilant that braces for bad news every time the phone rings, the Controller that wants to manage every detail of your parents' lives, and the Pleaser that says yes to everyone but you. Once you can name them, they lose their grip.
Strengthen your Sage. Activate the part of your brain that brings calm, clarity, resilience, and creativity, so you can think straight when things get hard.
Use your Sage Powers. Apply five core powers, Empathize, Explore, Innovate, Navigate, and Activate, to real situations with your parents, siblings, and yourself. For example, holding your parent's fear and your own at the same time, or choosing your next step on a care decision based on your values instead of guilt.

Your Guide
I'm Danielle Baer, a certified coach (ICF ACC, CTI CPCC) trained in Positive Intelligence. I've always been the person others turn to for a calm presence and a safe place to land. I work with women in midlife who are navigating big transitions, and I know how much caring for aging parents can stir up. I know this road firsthand. When major health issues left my parents navigating changes in their living situation, I helped provide support with finding in-home caregivers so they could age in place, while also exploring assisted living. Along the way, I learned to set my own boundaries, find new ways to see our roles, and respect their independence.
In this group, I'll create a grounded, compassionate space where you can pause, breathe, and build the tools to care for your parents without losing yourself.
FAQs
How much time will this take? About an hour a week for the program videos and activities, plus 3 to 4 minutes of daily practice and the weekly group session. The program is designed for busy lives.
What if I miss a session? I can set up a time for an individual time to touch base, and help guide you on how to stay current with the group.
Do I need to be the primary caregiver? No. Most women in this group wouldn't call themselves caregivers. They're the ones who worry, coordinate, and show up, whether they're nearby, managing from a distance, or just starting to notice changes.
Is this therapy? No. Coaching is forward-focused and practical. It isn't a substitute for therapy or medical care. If you're feeling numb, withdrawn, or depleted for weeks at a time, a therapist may be the right support, and some women find the two work well together.
Will I have to share personal details in the group? Only what feels right to you. The group is confidential and you set your own pace.
Is there a payment plan or sliding scale? Yes. I’m happy to work with you to find a payment option to make this experience accessible.
