Hi, I’m Catherine Hickem.
Let’s Transform Your Relationship with Your Adult Children.
MY MISSION
Helping Parents Navigate the Journey with Confidence and Grace
Parenting doesn’t end when your children grow up. If anything, the relationships often become more complex. I’ve made it my life’s mission to help parents like you connect with your adult children, strengthen trust, and create lasting bonds grounded in unconditional love and acceptance.
Through my work, I provide tools and strategies to help parents define what it means to be successful—because it’s not about how our children turn out, but how we show up in the relationship.
MY STORY
My journey hasn’t been without its challenges. From losing 12 people dear to me by the time I was 13 to navigating adoption, parenting two children, and walking through a divorce after 35 years of marriage, I’ve faced struggles that shaped who I am today.
Each experience taught me something profound about relationships, resilience, and faith. But the most important lesson? It's never too late to grow and change.
As a parent, I know the heartache of unmet expectations and the joy of seeing relationships transform. My children have been my greatest teachers, showing me the power of unconditional love. I want to help you experience the same kind of transformation in your family.
