Growing Emotional Capacities
Raising Moxie®️
Education for Adults.
Raising Moxie®️ equips adults—educators, parents, and community leaders—with the skills, language, and frameworks to meet children’s developmental needs with precision, warmth, and oversight. Through community education and professional development, we build adult fluency to foster growth-promoting environments where every child can thrive.
-
Build Adult Skill Fluency We explicitly teach adults how to lead with warmth and demand—because warmth without demand is enablement, and demand without warmth is harm.
-
Reclaim High Expectations Warm Demanders* regulate kids naturally. We help adults embody this balance.
-
Protect Foundational Needs Children’s needs—human connection, literacy, health, and physical protection—are civil rights, not preferences or privileges.
-
Disrupt Systemic Harm We don’t fix kids. We fix systems.
-
Model Vulnerable Leadership Authenticity is strategy, but with emotional resonance, it is power!
Our Belief
We believe that adult skill-building is the gateway to systemic repair. When adults are equipped to lead relationally and rigorously, children flourish. Our evidence-based programming is designed to restore dignity, elevate expectations, and protect every child’s right to thrive.
We protect kids’ foundational needs, disrupt systemic harm, and
model authentic leadership.
Moxie is a courageous spirit. We want to build courage everywhere! We want to infuse society with the wisdom to watch the tides and help young people to become adept at diving into the ocean of life!
