Invite me to speak to your to your group!
I’d love to come speak to your group or organization about the emotional ups and downs of sending your child to college.

Hi, I’m Diana!
I love to speak on the emotional rollercoaster that is sending your child to college. Campus tours and college prep checklists tell you what size sheets you need for your freshman dorm room, but they don’t talk about how you’re going to feel when you make their bed on move-in day, or wash their soccer uniform for the last time, or adjust to the quiet in your home.
I’m a two-time girl mom who just sent her oldest to college – I am in the thick of all those big feelings.
I am also here to tell you that you don’t have to do this alone. I am here to share some tips, tools, insight, and resources on how parents can find their footing amidst the seismic shift that is sending your child to college.
Don’t worry, recommending joining a Pickleball club is not on my list!

Speaking Topics
Here are some of the topics I cover:
- They’re In, Now What? The Emotional shift from Manager of the Nest to Guide on the Side
- Communication Beyond One Word Texts
- Emptier Nest: How to Launch One Bird While Keeping the Harmony at Home.
I am happy to customize an in-person or virtual talk to fit your group’s interest and needs.
