Be The Kind of Parent You
Want To Be
No parent begins this journey with all the answers...
Parenting starts with love. Big love.
The kind that makes you want to do your best, understand your child deeply, and create a warm, connected home. But it also comes with uncertainty—because every child is unique, and every parent brings their own story into the mix.
Sometimes, without meaning to, we slip into old patterns shaped by our own childhood. Even when we’re trying to do things differently, familiar dynamics can sneak in—leading to tension, power struggles, or that stuck, disconnected feeling. And suddenly, we’re repeating cycles we swore we’d break. It’s tough—especially when all we want is more ease, more joy, and more connection with our kids.
The good news? It doesn’t have to stay that way. With a bit of reflection, a willingness to look inward, and a dose of curiosity, we can start noticing, exploring, and transforming the limiting beliefs that keep us stuck. And when that happens—everything starts to shift. We begin to reconnect—with ourselves first, and then with our children. And that opens the door to a new kind of parenting: one that feels more intentional, more connected, and a whole lot more human.
Growth
Rewrite your story and break the cycle—so you and your children are free to grow into who you truly are, and flourish
Connection
Raise your children with trust, curiosity, and open communication —so cooperation unfolds from relationship, not control
Harmony
Find your flow, and move through family life with more ease, clarity, and mutual understanding—even when things get messy
It’s never too late to
turn things around.
No matter what your relationship with your children looks like right now,
there is always hope. Truly.
Every parent-child relationship is unique, but parenting itself is a shared human journey. It unfolds day by day, stage by stage, as we learn and grow through each season of our child’s life. Along the way, we all experience the highs—moments of joy, pride, and love that take our breath away—and the lows, filled with questions, guilt, and that creeping sense of
'Am I getting this right?'
None of us start out knowing all the answers. We set off with the best of intentions, picturing the kind of parent we want to be. But life is full, kids are unpredictable, and sometimes the pressures of everyday parenting pull us off course. Despite our love and effort, we might find ourselves stuck in frustration, losing patience,
or saying things we wish we hadn’t.
Here’s the thing: parenting isn’t about getting it perfect. It’s about staying open and curious. Because we are always being offered new chances to pause, repair, reconnect,
and
grow together.
Even when it feels messy or overwhelming, another way
is
possible. There’s always a path forward—and you don’t have to walk it alone.
"Connection is why we're here; it's what gives purpose and meaning to our lives."

Hi! I’m Meg Regan.
Based in Dubai, UAE, I am a certified and licensed Parent Coach and a mother to a wonderful teen. With over 10 years of primary teaching experience, 5 years working with university students, and extensive training in peaceful parenting, conscious communication, child development and neuroscience, I bring a wealth of knowledge and a well-rounded perspective to my coaching practice. My professional expertise is enriched by my personal journey as a mother, which I believe equips me uniquely to support and guide other parents in Dubai and beyond with both empathy and insight.
Before my daughter was born, I immersed myself in books and soul-searching, desperately hoping to rise to the challenges of parenthood and to avoid revisiting the uncomfortable patterns from my own childhood. However, tender triggers emerged sooner than expected, and I found myself grappling with the very unhelpful mechanisms I had longed to prevent. The lack of family support, typical of expat lifestyles, left me feeling lonely and confused, even helpless at times.
Today, I can confidently say that transformation is absolutely possible. My vision has come to fruition: through time, courage, and a blend of books, formal learning, and coaching, I have built a relationship with my child based on mutual trust, repair, connection and cooperation. As a Parent Coach, I am passionate about guiding and empowering other mums and dads on their own life-changing journeys to discover and embrace the parents their children need and deserve.
"During our weekly sessions with Meg, I felt safe to share my challenges and received unwavering support. I learnt so much about the psychological development of children and young adults — especially relevant now that my own child has just entered this stage. We focused on the areas that mattered most to me, such as communication and strengthening our relationship through active listening, emotional expression, and attuned responses. The sessions not only motivated me to do deeper inner work, but also helped me gain clarity on subconscious patterns that were no longer serving me.
It wasn’t an easy time in my life, and I’m incredibly grateful to Meg for helping me through it.
I wholeheartedly recommend this programme to all mums and dads — whether your children are little or already growing up."
Maja, mum of a 20-year-old
"Meg has spent over a decade becoming a master in respectful parenting skills, and it shows! As a mental health therapist, I can confidently say that she understands both the workings of a child’s mind and the struggles of a parent, and she has the deep desire to help families strengthen and thrive. Meg is caring and empathetic, yet direct, and is truly a safe space for anyone looking to explore their parenting journey."
Lindsay Mieden, MA, LPC-S, mum of three
"Meg’s insights and time have the ability to change your relationship to parenting and yourself. Her ability to listen to problems and cut through the noise to help her clients solve the issues they need to most is impeccable - whether it’s current communications or past ghosts in the way.
In addition, she’s dedicated and will even take the time to translate the whole course for you if you need it.
With Meg you not only get a coach but a committed friend and sweet cheerleader for life."
Caroline, mum of a 1-year-old
The traditional
‘power-over’ model
of parenting
isn’t working.
So many of us feel it—that tug of disconnection, the moments we wish had gone differently, the quiet guilt that creeps in after a long day. We care deeply, and we’re trying. But sometimes, it still just feels… off.
The truth is, we
are
doing our best—with the tools, support, and experiences we’ve had so far. And when we fall back into old patterns, it’s not a sign failure—it’s a sign that we’re still relying on strategies we inherited, not ones we consciously chose.
What we need is a new way. One that fits who we truly are, and the kind of parent we want to be. That's because parenting with intention takes more than love. It grows from reflection, and from simple, steady tools that help us stay grounded, regulated, and aligned with our values—so we can show up with clarity, confidence, and empathy.
This kind of growth is possible. Gently. Gradually. One step at a time.
And the beautiful part? This isn’t something you have to navigate solo—and you deserve guidance that truly meets you where you are.
I’ve walked this path too. I know how disorienting it can feel to want change but not know where to begin. This is why I offer a space that’s warm, compassionate, and free of judgment—with support that’s personal, practical, and deeply encouraging.
If you’re ready to move toward more connection and clarity in your parenting, I’d be honoured to walk alongside you.
Are you ready to take the first step?
How It Works:
When you book a call with me, we’ll sit down together and talk so I can get a sense of what’s going on for you and your family and where I can offer support.
I’ll explain my approach and the options we have for working together. You can ask any questions you have and see what type of support would be the best fit for your life and schedule.
If it feels right to you, we can book our first session and get started. If it’s not a good fit, I will do my best to offer alternative resources or suggestions for support, wherever possible. There’s no pressure of any kind, simply an opportunity to see if we are a good fit to work together.
Let's Talk!
So you can honour your story, embrace self-discovery, and step onto a path that feels truly your own.
Take the first step by inviting reflection and self-compassion, and connect with your children in a way that makes both them and you feel seen, loved and safe.
