In celebration of Creator Month 2023, we’ve hosted a series of five live events on YouTube with real Teachable creators. These fireside-chat-style events provided a deep dive into what it means to create impact on your students and customers. We’ve tapped creators of every size and industry to share their stories in our special event series, Creator Month 2023: Creating Impact.

The below video is a recording of our live chat with Mary Van Geffen,  international parenting coach for moms of Spicy Ones, her signature 8-week group program designed to help moms gain the confidence to choose gentle, respectful parenting especially if they weren’t raised that way. 

Mary helps people who are highly competent in life but overwhelmed by motherhood to lean into the spiritual discipline of staying calm and cultivating warmth and tenderness all while trying to wrangle fiery future CEOs. See how she does this with serious skill-building and self-compassion in our interview.
