About My Work
Welcome to Trauma Informed Everything™
Rooted in Resilience. Informed by Research. Inspired by Real Life.
For many years, my work has been dedicated to understanding how people learn, navigate adversity, build resilience, and experience meaningful change.
Through Little Rock Professional Development, I have had the privilege of working alongside organizations, leaders, educators, families, and communities across Canada. My work has included trauma-informed leadership, workplace psychological health and safety, resilience education, adult foundational learning, organizational development, instructional design, and professional training.
Over time, learning and development, instructional design, and Train-the-Trainer program development have become central to my professional practice. I have discovered that one of the most meaningful ways to create lasting change is through education that helps people better understand themselves, recognize the strengths they already carry, and develop practical skills that can transform how they work, lead, teach, and connect with others.
Today, this work has evolved and is brought together under Trauma Informed Everything™.
You may still see references to Little Rock Professional Development throughout my portfolio, publications, and previous projects. That name represents an important chapter of my professional journey and the foundation upon which my current work has been built.
What You'll Find Here
Learning Design & Development
I partner with organizations to create meaningful, accessible, and engaging learning experiences. My services include instructional design, curriculum development, eLearning content, customized professional development, and Train-the-Trainer programs that strengthen organizational capacity and support sustainable learning.
Resilience, Trauma-Informed Practice & Professional Learning
Much of my work is grounded in resilience research, neuroscience, trauma- and stress-informed approaches, and adult learning principles. I develop education that recognizes the importance of relationships, culture, identity, belonging, psychological safety, and the environments in which people live and learn.
The Truth About Parenting: What Keeps Us Awake at Night
Alongside my professional learning work is something deeply personal: my writing and experiences as a mother of five. Parenting has been one of my greatest teachers. Through the challenges and joys of raising a family, I have come to understand that the research I bring into classrooms, workplaces, and communities is equally important in our homes. My book, The Truth About Parenting: What Keeps Us Awake at Night, brings together lived experience, neuroscience, resilience, stress-informed parenting, and faith. It is an honest reflection on the complexities of parenting, the importance of connection, and the opportunities we have to support our children through life's challenges.
You will also find opportunities to connect with me for speaking engagements, parenting presentations, and community conversations inspired by the book.
The Foundation of Everything I Do
Whether I am developing an online course, designing a national Train-the-Trainer program, supporting organizational learning, speaking with parents, or writing about family life, my work is guided by one central belief:
-
Resilience is not developed in isolation. It grows through relationships, meaningful connections, cultural identity, supportive environments, opportunities, and a sense of belonging.
-
My approach integrates resilience research, trauma- and stress-informed practice, neuroscience, experiential adult learning, and strengths-based education.
-
I believe learning should do more than share information. It should invite reflection, build understanding, strengthen confidence, and create opportunities for meaningful change.
-
Above all, I believe the way we support people, whether they are children, parents, employees, educators, or community members, can have a profound influence on their lives.
Let's Connect
Whether you are exploring a learning and development project, looking for an instructional design consultant, developing a Train-the-Trainer program, planning a speaking engagement, or interested in my book, I welcome the opportunity to connect.
Thank you for being here and for taking an interest in the work I care so deeply about.

Hope, honesty & wisdom
For parents who lie awake wondering if they’re doing enough.


Parenting in Crisis
"When crisis hits our children, something deep inside us trembles. Our sense of safety is shattered, not only because we love them so fiercely, but because we are suddenly face-to-face with our own powerlessness. We can no longer control what has happened or what is unfolding. The illusion that we can protect them from harm, guide every outcome, or hold the world steady for them begins to crack. In those moments, it’s not just their safety that feels threatened—it’s ours too." Rochelle Galeski , The Truth About Parenting
Parenting Teens
"Connection with teens doesn’t happen by accident. It happens when we create open spaces, even when we’re busy. It happens when we choose presence over productivity, sitting on the couch with them, saying yes to spontaneous late-night talks, lingering after dinner, driving them places without using that time to lecture or question." Rochelle Galeski - The Truth About Parenting
Self-Care
"What I’ve come to realize is that boundaries don’t begin the moment we voice them. They begin in quiet reflection, far before the conversation ever takes place. Boundaries are born in stillness, in awareness, in noticing what we need. Then, with courage and care, we bring them forward, not as a wall, but as a bridge toward healthier connection."- Rochelle Galeski - The Truth About Parenting
