  • Behavior Breakthrough Week | Confidently Mommin’

    Create a custom plan for your child's toughest behavior in 5 days—without reading another parenting book or sitting through hours of video. Behavior Breakthrough Week Join Now One behavior. One clear plan. Big breakthroughs. Create a custom plan for your child's toughest behavior in 5 days—without reading another parenting book or sitting through hours of video. Instead of trying to force generic parenting tips to fit your unique kid, you'll use my custom-trained AI parenting assistants (the Mellies) to turn my proven coaching framework into an actionable, step-by-step plan for your home in just minutes a day. One Behavior Bedtime chaos, morning battles, or explosive reactions—we focus on just one thing so you get immediate relief. No Homework You answer a few quick questions on your phone; our custom AI tools draft your personalized roadmap. Summer-Friendly Designed to fit into a real, messy schedule with short video lessons and on-demand tool access. You are NOT a bad parent and your child is NOT a bad kid. Raising a strong-willed, highly sensitive, or neurodiverse child comes with big emotions, big personalities, and, let’s be honest, some really big challenges. Maybe it’s the daily battles over getting dressed… the screaming when things don’t go exactly right… the constant negotiating… the homework meltdowns… the refusal to brush teeth… the hitting or kicking when they’re overwhelmed… the “I’m not doing it!” moments… or the endless power struggles that leave you feeling drained before 9:00 AM. No matter what behavior is causing stress in your home right now, you don't need another generic parenting tip. You need a practical plan. As a Parenting Coach and BCBA who specializes in strong-willed, highly sensitive, and neurodiverse kids, I've spent years helping hundreds of families create lasting behavior change by first uncovering what's actually causing the behavior. I created this process to bring that same personalized guidance into the small pockets of time you already have throughout your day. During Behavior Breakthrough Week, we are going to do exactly that. Join Now By the end of the week, you'll start creating real change We’re going to create ONE Behavior Breakthrough Plan. Just one. And over the next 5 days, I’ll walk you step-by-step through my proven GUIDE framework to change it—whether that’s: → Getting out of the house without a battle → Ending bedtime chaos → Stopping hitting, yelling, or explosive reactions → Reducing constant arguing or defiance → Calming emotional outbursts → Creating smoother mornings or homework time → Or any other behavior that’s been running your home By the end of the week, you'll know exactly why the behavior is happening, what to do about it, and how to start creating real change. Join Now Now imagine your life once that behavior feels easier... Imagine getting out the door without everyone ending up frustrated. Imagine saying no without bracing for an explosion. Imagine bedtime ending with connection instead of conflict. Imagine having a clear plan instead of constantly wondering what to try next. That's what a Behavior Breakthrough feels like. And it starts with focusing on one behavior at a time. Join Now During Behavior Breakthrough Week You'll create a personalized Behavior Breakthrough Plan that includes: ✅ The real reason your child's behavior is happening ✅ The missing skills your child needs to learn ✅ Strategies to prevent the behavior before it starts ✅ A plan for responding effectively when it happens ✅ Simple ways to stay calm, confident, and connected throughout the process Join Now Meet the Mellies You don't need more parenting information. You've already read the books, listened to the podcasts, and saved the social media posts. The gap isn't knowledge—it's having the bandwidth to customize that knowledge for your child when you're already exhausted. That's why I built The Mellies. The Mellies are custom-trained AI parenting assistants programmed with my exact behavior change frameworks. You don't have to guess what to write or how to map out your plan. You simply answer a few easy prompts about your child on your phone, and the Mellies do the heavy lifting—generating a step-by-step Behavior Breakthrough Plan tailored specifically to your family's daily rhythms. Behavior Breakthrough Week Is Different If you're worried this will be just another parenting course that sits unfinished in your inbox, I get it. Parenting books are easy to buy and hard to finish. The gap isn't information—it's customization. That's why Behavior Breakthrough Week is different. Instead of trying to figure everything out on your own, you'll actually build your plan on your phone during the week. My highly trained AI Mellie Parenting Assistants do all the heavy lifting. You have full access to the tools and community through June 30. You can go completely at your own pace. No more guessing. No more wondering what to try next. Just one behavior, one clear plan, and the big breakthroughs that follow. "When it finally makes sense, everything changes. You’re the first person who has ever explained something new to me. It feels amazing to finally feel understood as a parent of a very difficult child." – Amy Inside Behavior Breakthrough Week By the end of Behavior Breakthrough Week, you'll know: ✔ Why your child's behavior is happening and what it's really communicating ✔ How to respond when challenging behaviors happen without yelling, threatening, or second-guessing yourself ✔ Exactly where to start instead of feeling overwhelmed by all the things you could work on ✔ How to stay calm and confident even when your child is struggling ✔ How to help your child learn the skills they need to be successful ✔ How to create a stronger connection with your child while improving behavior ✔ What motivates your child and how to encourage more of the behaviors you'd like to see ✔ Exactly what to do next with the behavior you're working on Join Now "When you know what to do, everything feels easier. This morning my 6-year-old was about to explode when I said no. I heard your voice say ‘Connect,’ and tried it. His grip softened, he started talking about his game, and the meltdown never happened.

Feel free to talk with Melly. Talk through what’s going on with our safe + custom GPT (Melly) Get clarity on what your child needs Decide on the best next step together More Details When Everything Feels Hard, and You Can’t Quite Explain Why If you’re here, something feels… hard right now. → Maybe your child melts down over things that don’t seem to make sense. → Maybe they argue, refuse, or completely shut down. → Maybe you feel like you’re walking on eggshells or bracing for the next moment. And underneath all of that, there’s this quiet thought: “I should be able to figure this out… so why does it still feel so overwhelming?” A Different Approach That Gets to the Root Most parenting advice focuses on surface-level behavior. What to say. What consequence to use. How to fix the moment. But when you’re raising a strong-willed, sensitive, or neurodiverse child… those things don’t hold up for long. WHY? Your child’s behavior isn’t random. It’s communication. So instead of trying to control behavior, I help you understand it. I help you start changing what’s underneath it. What your child is truly trying to communicate. We figure out what’s really driving the behavior. Not just what it looks like on the outside, but what’s actually going on underneath it. My Proven Process Introducing GUIDE, a proven process to actually understand what's driving your child's behavior beyond the surface. 01 G=Gather Data We pick one behavior to focus and start tracking it to understand what’s really happening. 02 U= Understand and Release Triggers We identify patterns and triggers. Your child’s triggers… and yours. Because both matter more than you’ve probably been told. 03 I= Investigate the Cause of the Behavior We identify the root cause of the behavior so you can stop guessing and start addressing what’s actually going on underneath. 04 D=Deter the Behavior From Happening Again We prevent the behavior before it starts. We teach the skills your child is missing. Things like emotional regulation, flexibility, and problem-solving. The stuff they were never explicitly taught. 05 E=Encourage Appropriate Behaviors We reinforce what you do want to see. So the right behaviors actually stick. And we come up with a plan that will actually work for how to respond when the problem behavior happens again. Melissa Schulz is the real deal! She was super responsive when I posted about how to handle some sensory issues my middle child is having. In a short 30-minute chat, she was encouraging and provided great strategies I could use right away.

Download The Free Guide The 5 Minute Connection Reset A simple, practical tool to help overwhelmed parents reconnect with their child during stressful moments, meltdowns, conflict, and everyday parenting overwhelm You don’t need perfect parenting. You need connection. Send Me The Free Guide → Parenting Was Never Meant to Feel This Hard You love your child deeply. So why does parenting sometimes feel like constant tension, correction, and overwhelm? Maybe lately you’ve noticed: More power struggles More yelling than you want More emotional exhaustion More correcting and less connecting Feeling stuck in survival mode Wondering why nothing seems to work anymore Missing the closeness you used to feel with your child You are not failing. Most parents are trying incredibly hard with very little real support. And when stress takes over, connection is often the first thing to suffer. Download Your Free Guide What if behavior is not the real problem? Many parenting approaches focus almost entirely on correcting behaviors. But behavior problems are connection problems first. When children feel overwhelmed, misunderstood, dysregulated, anxious, disconnected, or unsafe, their behavior gets bigger. And when parents are exhausted and overwhelmed too, everyone gets stuck in survival mode. This is especially true for strong-willed, sensitive, and neurodiverse children. Connection is not permissiveness. It is the foundation that helps children feel safe enough to listen, regulate, cooperate, and trust you. And the good news is: connection can be rebuilt in small moments. Send Me The Free Guide → Inside The 5 Minute Connection Reset: You’ll Learn: → How to calm your nervous system before reacting → Why behavior is communication → A simple way to respond with curiosity instead of control → How to reconnect after conflict or hard moments → A daily habit that strengthens connection in just a few minutes → How to shift out of survival mode parenting This is not another overwhelming parenting system.

Meet Melissa Small Moments Change Relationships Connection is not built through perfection. It grows through repair, presence, curiosity, and regulation.

Discover how her expert guidance has transformed families and empowered parents. Testimonials Sarah B. Melissa Schulz is the real deal! She was super responsive when I posted about how to handle some sensory issues my middle child is having. In a short 30 minute chat, she was encouraging and provided great strategies I could use right away. She knew exactly what I was talking about when I described the issue and her deep expertise in child behavior and parenting shone through! I would highly recommend running your parenting questions by Melissa! Sarah M. Melissa is the absolute best. She genuinely cares and empathizes with Mom life! She helped us so much in sleep training our 4 month old, I couldn’t ask for a better coach thru any of it! Bindiya M. Melissa has been an amazing coach and I have learned so much from her. She provides just enough support and challenges you to be a better version of yourself. She is kind, funny and overall, a beautiful human being. Blessed to know her and have her in my life. Michelle C. I have been working with Melissa for over a year and with her help, I have made so many improvements in several areas of my life. She has helped me become aware of my own thinking patterns and how to change them. She has helped me with my parenting and with my classroom management. Working with her has been so beneficial and I would recommend it to anyone interested. Katherine G. Melissa truly wants to help parents grow and enjoy parenting! She has all the expertise and schooling and knows what she's talking about! Aside from her credentials, when you meet with her, you instantly enter a judgment-free zone, which is the best feeling and place to be when working on yourself. Priscilla C. I loved working with Melissa! Her knowledge, compassion and helpful tips came when we needed it the most with our deeply feeling child. She patiently answered all my questions and what ifs, and helped me see what I was missing. Melissa is so easy to talk to and personable. I am so glad to have her as a resource for what the next season of life brings! Kelly L. Melissa was a game changer in my Mom-Game for helping me build my relationship and understanding of my “Spicey Mama 2 Year Old”. Being a teacher and having a “Pretty Chill Little Dude” 5 year old, I thought (keyword thought) the second rodeo would be an easier one. Wrong. Having never experienced full blown tantrums in the grocery stores, backbreaking dance moves while trying to get Spicey Mama in her car seat, full on eye contact while slamming her head into the ground just for fun (? ), and total pet torture while smiling, I was pretty sure there was a switch on my child’s back that was incorrectly flipped from “Good” to (you know)… I cried nightly. My husband and I yelled daily. Still guilty about this one, but I asked God why my son didn’t have these issues, but my daughter did. I questioned all of my parenting and teaching philosophies and what we did wrong. Then came: Melissa. Melissa was my fresh breath of air. Melissa reminded me of what it means to be TWO. She brought me into a two year old’s understanding of what life is. She gave me perspective. After I gained a new understanding of what my toddler was seeing and feeling, we then strategized. We pinpointed specific issues needing to work on as a family and with S.M., and game planned. This is what we needed. There was no “quick fix” for my daughter, but long term intensive, loving attention and structured language to support the goals I set with Melissa. This was all done in ONE session! Parents, if you are in a place where you are struggling with parenting, want to set a goal, need a new perspective on how tiny humans work, or just need a fellow parent to laugh/cry/feel frustrated/let it out with, Melissa is the gal for the gig!

  • 1:1 Coaching | Confidently Mommin’

    WORK WITH M E 1:1 Coaching With Melissa Apply Today Real Support Starts Here Personalized support to understand your child’s behavior and create lasting change. This is where everything becomes specific. Not general advice. Not one-size-fits-all strategies. A clear, personalized approach based on your child, your patterns, and your real life. Watch this to understand how this support works. Why Things Haven’t Fully Worked Yet? Most parenting strategies focus on: → What to say → What consequence to use → How to handle the moment But when behavior keeps happening... something underneath hasn’t been addressed. Because your child’s behavior isn’t random. It’s coming from: → Unmet needs → Lagging skills → A dysregulated nervous system And even with good strategies... it’s hard to follow through when you’re overwhelmed. A Different Way to Create Change Inside 1:1 coaching, I don’t just give you strategies. We build a plan around your specific situation. We look at: What’s driving your child’s behavior What patterns are keeping it going What’s getting in the way of consistency What will actually change things in your home So instead of trying to make advice fit... you have something that already does. Apply Today Melissa has been an amazing coach and I have learned so much from her . She provides just enough support and challenges you to be a better version of yourself. She is kind, funny and overall, a beautiful human being . Blessed to know her and have her in my life. - Bindiya M. My Proven Process Introducing GUIDE, a proven process to actually understand what's driving your child's behavior beyond the surface. 01 G=Gather Data We pick one behavior to focus and start tracking it to understand what’s really happening. 02 U= Understand and Release Triggers We identify patterns and triggers. Your child’s triggers… and yours. Because both matter more than you’ve probably been told. 03 I= Investigate the Cause of the Behavior We identify the root cause of the behavior so you can stop guessing and start addressing what’s actually going on underneath. 04 D=Deter the Behavior From Happening Again We prevent the behavior before it starts. We teach the skills your child is missing. Things like emotional regulation, flexibility, and problem-solving. The stuff they were never explicitly taught. 05 E=Encourage Appropriate Behaviors We reinforce what you do want to see. So the right behaviors actually stick. And we come up with a plan that will actually work for how to respond when the problem behavior happens again. This Is What Starts to Feel Different Most parenting support focuses on behavior. But what changes everything... is how you feel inside it. Inside this work, we build your capacity so that: You stay calm, even when your child isn’t You think clearly instead of second-guessing You have more energy You feel steady instead of on edge This is the shift most moms don’t realize is possible... until they experience it. Apply Today What Support Actually Looks Like Inside 1:1 coaching, we break down your exact situation, create a plan tailored to your child, and adjust as things evolve. You’ll have support through real-life moments, so you’re not carrying it on your own.

I've always dreaded my alone time with him. He has been a difficult child from day one for me, until the last few months he’s really turning a corner! My son was having 5-6 tantrums a day that would last for up to an hour of full blown screaming, crying, foaming at the mouth, hitting, kicking, biting, and throwing things. I had no idea what the right reaction was. I tried staying calm, I tried yelling back, time-out, ignoring him, etc. I was losing my mind. I’m now enjoying my sweet child! Our days aren’t perfect, but they are so much better lately. All to say I highly recommend Melissa! Thank you so much for the months of parent coaching. It has SO paid off! – Lyndee S.
