Testimonials
I wanted to thank you for coming to our school to present. I’ve been to every seminar, speaker, talk, …you name it. Yours was the best I’ve been to – content-rich, interesting and immediately helpful to daily life with my teens (and myself!).
Mother of a Middle Schooler
I absolutely loved, loved, loved your talk and attitude about life and girls in today’s world. I wish I could take your thoughts and words and stick them in my brain.
Lisa, mother of a 12-year-old
Barb’s workshops are relevant to today’s families and delivered in a conversational, accessible, yet informative way. I’ve attended several of her workshops and always come away with specific things to do and say in those instances when I feel “stuck” or at a loss for words with one of my daughters.
Bev, mother of a 14-year-old and 20-year-old
At our winter conference for working and entrepreneurial moms, Barb Steinberg took the serious topic of teens and sex and made it relatable to everyone in the room. She is smart, witty, personable. Barb was definitely the hit of conference…Barb Steinberg is a meeting planner’s dream!

Testimonials
Barb was such a great source of support during a difficult time for me. She helped me navigate specific issues as well as broader concepts. Our work together has really helped improve the flow of communication between me and my kids!

Parent coaching with Barb provided me with a safe place to share all of my concerns and fears about parenting. I most certainly walked away with some good pointers and strategies! I felt so much better when I left because I had a plan with new ways of responding to my girls.
Anna, mom to a 9- and an 11-year-old girl
Going to Barb for life coaching helped me with all the pressure and stress I was feeling about senior year and trying to get into college. She helped me find ways to deal with all the stress and actually have fun my senior year instead of being stressed out all the time.
Sierra, 17
I used to dread going to school because of how I was treated by some girls. Barb has taught me ways to deal with them. It has helped me to stand up for myself and find friends that are actually nice.

Testimonials
Barb packed such important information into her webinar Letting Go of Your Little Girl; I was left wanting more & more. She knows teen girls and really speaks to their benefit!
Mom of a 14-year-old
I can’t believe how much great information I received from Barb’s online course, Girls’ Friendships 101. I really needed help. My daughter was having a hard time with the girls at school, and this gave me all the information that I needed to know how to help her. I will be referring back to this for years to come!
Mom of a 12-year-old
I took Barb's mini course on Talking to Teens and came away with some amazing, concrete strategies for how to communicate with my teens in a way that will encourage them to hear me rather than react against me. Barb’s specific examples of clear, kind communication with firm boundaries that Barb demonstrates apply equally to all genders. Awesome, helpful course!
