Hello, I'm Andrea Maher.
All I ever wanted was to be a mom and I was completely shocked and devastated by how hard postpartum anger and rage hit me.
Becoming a mom seemed to awaken this inner monster I couldn’t control.Â
I spent many of my days yelling, screaming, overstimulated, and feeling out of control.
As a mom of 3 (including a set of twins) - I would put my kids to bed and sit down on the couch, sick to my stomach with guilt for all the times I yelled at them or lashed out during the day.
I love my kids more than anything in the world. I knew they didn’t deserve the way I was treating them.
I would promise myself that the next day would be different, but the cycle would just start again.
It felt UNCONTROLLABLE in the moment.
My journey to becoming a better mom
One night, in a fit of rage, I screamed at my kids to shut up and go to bed. I slammed the door and ended up breaking the door frame.
With a look of fear and tears in her eyes, my daughter looked up at me and asked me if I even loved her.
That was a breaking point.Â
I had already fought my way through addiction to a life of sobriety. And in that moment I decided that this toxic cycle in my parenting had to end.
So I took action to learn skills to control my anger. And explored new ways of leading my family and running my household in a calm and respectful manner.
I took it upon myself to break generational patterns.
FAST FORWARD TO TODAY
My family is finally in a place of real happiness and connection.
We’ve built a home filled with connection, laughter, and peace—something I once thought was out of reach.
Just a short time ago, I couldn’t imagine days without constant yelling or chaos. Now, we enjoy moments of joy and connection that feel natural, not forced. We’re thriving as a family in ways I never thought possible.
But this transformation didn’t happen overnight—it was intentional. I learned how to regulate my emotions, parent with respect, and create a home where everyone feels valued.
Now, I’m committed to helping other moms find their own path to a calmer, more joyful motherhood. As a Certified Anger Management Specialist, I’ve created courses to teach you the tools that changed my life.
You don’t have to feel stuck in anger or guilt. Let me show you what’s possible for you and your family.

Giving too much screen time…
Kids these days spend more time watching TV or playing on a phone/tablet than any of the fun stuff we used to do when we were their age.
