 a French acronym meaning
“Happy Couples – Radiant Children – Imago.”

 

You'd never build a house without a blueprint.

So why do we start families without one?


Every year, millions of couples bring a child into the world fueled by love alone — without ever sitting down to ask the questions that matter most.

What happens when we disagree about discipline?

What if one of us wants to stay home?

What do we do when love isn't enough?

Love is beautiful.
But love alone does not build a harmonious family.

 

 

Because children deserve to feel safe. No matter what.

The C.H.E.R.I. Deck — 24 beautifully designed cards across 6 pillars of conscious co-parenting, plus guidebook

6 Private Sessions with Satyanna (90 minutes each, via Zoom) — 9 hours of personalized guidance to walk through every card, navigate the hard conversations, and build your family's foundation together

For women preparing alone OR couples ready to build together — the process meets you exactly where you are

This is for you if...

You're a woman dreaming of motherhood and you want to do it consciously — not by accident, not by default.

You're in a relationship and you want to make sure you're truly aligned before bringing a child into the world.

You've seen what happens when couples don't do this work — and you refuse to repeat that pattern.

You believe that the greatest gift you can give your future child… is parents who chose peace before they chose parenthood.

 

Because children deserve to feel safe. No matter what.  

What's Inside C.H.E.R.I
1st pillar : 

The 4 Foundation Agreements

8cd87356-76f4-4b3a-89f9-e3db8727328c

In this first session, you'll explore and share your fundamental needs — both personal and relational — guided by the C.H.E.R.I. card deck and Satyanna's support.

Together, you'll begin to uncover your core values — the ones that allow you to take care of yourself and your relationships, and that give you the strength and energy to live your family life together, in respect of each person.

You will also practice and receive the tools to support peaceful, happy family relationships.

2nd pillar : 

The Foundations for Building & Sustaining Your Family Life

Famille%201

In this session we will explore essential topics — such as how each of you experienced your own childhood, or how you wish to care for your child — in order to find balance within the family you're building together. You'll become aware of your fears and wounds, and most importantly, we'll show you how to free yourself from them so you can live your family life the way you truly want. Honestly define — first for yourself, then as a couple — each person's ideal vision, and find common ground using tools of compassionate communication. Clarify each person's position to reach an agreement on how to care for your children — from healthcare to nutrition.

3rd pillar : 

The Questions No One Thinks to Ask About Family Life

b2ebd21a-de51-4b18-b041-5c9b43b54483

This session lets you explore the questions couples rarely consider — like screen time, sugar, and all those "small" daily details that are far more important than we think, especially when you and your partner aren't aligned on them.
In this session, you will:
Create an action plan to care for your parenting the way you truly want — without forgetting to take care of yourself AND your relationship, with clear steps so that each person's needs are respected and honored.
Explore all the questions you never thought to ask about travel.

4th pillar : 

Preparing to Welcome Your Newborn
Most future parents think they're far more prepared than they actually are.

62dbf6c8-9140-4918-aa33-0df0a2237154

This is the session where we get into the details of how to welcome this new life into your home, with all the enormous changes it brings — the ones no one prepares you for enough. The moment you hold that little being in your arms for the first time, you realize — no one fully prepared you for this.
Explore the different choices available during pregnancy to connect with your child even before birth.
Receive guidance around breastfeeding — and weaning, because it's truly an integral part of the process.

5th pillar : 

This session helps The Details of Daily Life

0b233dc4-b7df-4021-9022-77f7e07ad42a%20(1)

In this session helps you explore the everyday choices that most shape your family’s wellbeing, clarify roles, expectations, and daily rhythms, discover how to use the VETO fairly and respectfully when you do not agree, and create routines, rituals, rules, and shared values that support a more harmonious family life. You will : Discover your values around the toys you offer your child. Explore approaches to supporting your child’s independence with toilet training. Understand how food culture and other cultural influences affect your child’s wellbeing. Create routines that reduce stress and prevent unnecessary conflict. Choose the artistic, sports, and educational activities you want to encourage. Define the manners, rules, and boundaries you want to put in place as a family.

6th Pillar  : 
This session helps you determine how and with whom you want your
children to be educated.

301b3969-efd4-4852-9633-278157e75ec6

In this session, you will Explore all the possible choices around your children's education within the educational and societal system you're in. Discover whether your beliefs are in harmony with your partner's — and how you wish to share them with your child. Explore a wide range of discipline styles — positive, authoritarian, permissive, and more — to help you choose how you'll co-discipline your children together. Address the reality of screens — which are everywhere in our daily lives — the harmful effects on your child's brain and development when there's too much screen time (especially for younger children), and the recommendations to protect them based on their age. We'll explore the concept of the child's absorbent mind — especially crucial during the first six years of life — and how the people around them can shape their personality during those earliest years. This will help you find solutions that truly honor your core values and deepest wishes on this topic.

7th Pillar  : 
The Bracelet Ritual & Final Agreements

Bracelet

This is where everything comes together.
In this closing session, we revisit the cards that were set aside — the ones where agreement didn't come easily. With Satyanna's guidance, you'll navigate these final conversations with compassion and clarity.
Then comes the ritual. Together, you'll thread each conscious agreement — bead by bead — onto your bracelet. What was once invisible becomes something you can see, touch, and hold.
You'll leave this session with more than a bracelet. You'll hold in your hands the living blueprint of your family — a visible thread of everything you've built together.
This is the foundation your children will grow up on.

How it works


Step 1 — Solo Reflection
The process begins in solitude. Each person reflects on what truly matters to them — honestly, without compromise.

Step 2 — Couple Dialogue
Then it becomes a conversation — one card at a time. No rush. No pressure. Just truth.

Step 3 — Conscious Agreements
Each agreement becomes a bead on a thread. If you don't agree — the card is set aside. Negotiable… or not.

Step 4 — Your Blueprint
At the end, you don't just have conversations. You have a thread of conscious agreements — a bracelet that makes the invisible architecture of your family… visible.

 

Step 5 - Part VI — The Oracle Dimension
You can choose to continue using the deck as a daily or situational guide
Drawing cards to navigate real-time challenges
Allowing each card to reveal a new layer of meaning in the second part of the booklet

Because children deserve to feel safe. No matter what.

 

Meet Satyanna

Christofer%20Cover%201
61

For over twenty-five years, I've supported parents, couples, and families — helping them build the life together they always dreamed of.
I started by observing children — first in Montessori and Waldorf classrooms in California, then in public schools in the south of France.

And I noticed something that changed everything:
The children who thrived weren't the smartest. They had parents who got along — even when separated.

The children whose parents were at war? Every single one struggled.
That's when it became clear — to truly support children, I had to support their parents first.

And that who and how you choose to parent with… changes everything.

So I created C.H.E.R.I. — to help as many people as possible build the family life they dream of.

Since then, I've guided dozens of parents through this process — helping them find the alignment

and balance they were hoping for.

I've trained facilitators, spoken at international summits, and built a growing community of conscious future parents.
 

A note from Satyanna

After thirty years of working with children and families, I know one thing for certain: the peace a child feels at home begins with the agreements their parents made — long before that child was born.

This deck is my life's work. And I created it for you.

C.H.E.R.I. ' s Cool

What happens to many couples when they skip this work?

You fall in love. You dream of a family. You assume you're on the same page.

Then the baby arrives… and so do the questions no one thought to ask.

"I thought we agreed I'd stay home with the baby."
"You never told me your mother would be this involved."
"We can't even agree on a bedtime — how are we supposed to raise a child together?"


Money. Discipline. Screen time. Religion. In-laws. Education. Division of roles. Where to live. How to argue — or whether arguing is even allowed.

These aren't small things. These are the invisible fault lines that crack families apart — slowly, silently, and almost always in front of the children.

The statistics are brutal: nearly half of all couples separate within the first five years of becoming parents. Not because they stopped loving each other — but because they never built the foundation beneath the love.

And the ones who pay the highest price?
The children.

Children who grow up walking on eggshells. Children who learn that love means tension. Children who carry their parents' unspoken war in their tiny bodies — at school, at night, for years.

This is not about being perfect.
This is about being intentional.

One conversation at a time. One card at a time. One agreement at a time — before the storm, not during it. 

What They Say About C.H.E.R.I.

— Marianne Williamson
Speaker, founder of Peace Alliance and Project Angel Food, four-time bestselling author, former U.S. presidential candidate, and author of the famous passage "Our Deepest Fear" — often attributed to Nelson Mandela.

Satyanna has written the most compassionate parenting guide imaginable. From her experience, her love, and unfortunately her own heartbreak, has emerged an essential tool for conscious parenting — destined to become every parent's best friend.

I want to begin this testimonial with deep gratitude for Satyanna and the work she has done for over 25 years — work she shares with so much heart. Satyanna's coaching is done with great intelligence, a holistic view of each personal situation, and with equal respect for both women and men. I 100% recommend her coaching — I've seen it lead to the flourishing of relationships. Thank you so much for that!


Anne-Sophie Nicolas 

Wellness Consultant

"We are a young couple — Brune and Olivier — and our son Tao, who is 2. Olivier and I reached out to Satyanna to improve our communication and reharmonize our relationship. Life's challenges had taken their toll, and when communication breaks down, everything feels harder. Satyanna gave us so many tools to better understand each other, to truly know ourselves, and to go deep into the childhood wounds that our partner mirrors back to us. Thanks to Satyanna, our couple and our family are doing better and better — and the little daily struggles are fading away, one by one. Thank you.


Brune

Equestrian Guide

When we started working with Satyanna, my son was experiencing anxiety and difficulty focusing. We received so much more than I expected: my son learned to self-regulate his body, to reduce his anxiety through meditation, songs, and yoga. I believe Satyanna came to this earth to heal, to teach, and to help adults and children love more. She has an incredible ability to connect with people. With her, you feel loved, worthy of good things — she works at an extraordinary level. Through her small suggestions on how to rearrange our home and shift our lifestyle, we transformed our lives for the better. One month after removing screens from the entire house, my son found his imagination again. He's more focused, more connected, and expresses himself more easily. Simply put, I don't have enough words to describe what a blessing and a gift she has been to my family and to me.


Kortney Riley

Mom to a child with autism à Laguna Beach

In my life of teaching and healing work, few have touched me the way Satyanna has. She has a passion and devotion for children, for this planet, and for us adults — because we so deeply influence their paths. This C.H.E.R.I. deck is her gift to us.


Heather George, Chinese Medicine & Acupuncture Teacher

I started homeschooling in March. My son had been struggling to get to work these past weeks — he didn't want to do anything anymore. I felt overwhelmed and exhausted by his constant negotiating. Thanks to Satyanna's guidance, we each found our place again and got back to a pleasant rhythm. She listened to each of our needs — my son's and mine. She helped us enormously, with gentleness, kindness, and respect. I'm infinitely grateful. Now the keys are within us — it's up to us to keep this rhythm going."


Laetitia Le Dean

I'm the mother of a 5-year-old boy who was having terrible, destructive tantrums several times a day — every time he was told no, every time there was a rule to follow, something to do that he hadn't planned, or a sentence spoken in too firm a tone. My deep trust in Satyanna, and Satyanna's deep trust in us — along with her vast knowledge, rich life experience, and proven expertise — led to surprisingly fast results. After 1 month, my son was already different. After 4 months, he's growing better and better, has rediscovered his joy for life, and has regained the ability to follow instructions in the demanding environment of primary school. Thank you Satyanna for your dedication, your insight, your strength, and your complete trust in my son, in me, and in life."


Elise Ferron

Mom to Paul

I highly recommend Satyanna's coaching. Through her deep experience and kindness, she illuminates both the individual and the couple's path. The practical tools allow for real personal growth, and the couple itself becomes a vehicle for evolution. If your plan is to welcome a child into your relationship, that child will benefit from all these wonderful accomplishments — stepping onto a path that's already filled with light."


Olivier

Equestrian Guide

Since our daughter was born, we've been putting conscious, caring practices into place. When it comes to positive parenting, Satyanna's vision brought us the touch of wisdom we had been longing to share — all three of us, with our child. Through her guidance, we understood that a child's joy comes from this presence, from an awakened framework, and at the same time from unlimited openness. Thank you Satyanna for sharing your knowledge and expertise with your gentle energy — in welcoming, in change, and in harmony.


Pierrick Der Arslanian

Engineer

Satyanna suggested we start tracking what Jasper was eating daily, to find a link between his diet and his tantrums. We're vegetarian and fairly healthy in our lifestyle, but we had never considered that the small amounts of sugar he was consuming could be triggering those big meltdowns. By observing more closely, we discovered it was. Similarly, when we firmly cut out technology before bedtime and in the morning, we saw a huge improvement in our daily life. Jasper's tantrums stopped. He went back to being loving, curious, active — and only sometimes a little grumpy, like any two-and-a-half-year-old.


Amy

Mom to Jasper - Laguna Beach, CA (USA)

Twenty years ago, my youngest son was in Satyanna's kindergarten class at Anneliese Academy in Laguna Beach, CA, where he excelled and thrived. Satyanna has a contagious passion for what she loves, and thankfully, children are one of her greatest passions. She truly understands that our children are our future, and is committed to educating them holistically — considering and addressing the whole person."

1.⁠ ⁠Do I need to be in a relationship to use C.H.E.R.I.?
No. Many women begin the process solo — reflecting on their own values, non-negotiables, and vision for motherhood. In fact, doing this work alone first makes you clearer and stronger when the right partner comes along.

2.⁠ ⁠Do I need to be pregnant or trying to conceive?
Not at all. C.H.E.R.I. is designed to be used before — whether you're dreaming of motherhood someday, actively planning, or simply want to be intentional about your future. The earlier you start, the stronger your foundation.

3.⁠ ⁠What if my partner doesn't want to do this?
Start with your own reflection. When your partner sees you becoming clearer about what matters to you, curiosity often follows. And if it doesn't — that's important information too.

4.⁠ ⁠What if we go through the cards and realize we don't agree?
That's not failure — that's the whole point. It's far better to discover a misalignment now, at a table, with cards and compassion… than five years from now, in front of your child. Some cards are negotiable. Some are not. Both are valuable.

5.⁠ ⁠What happens during the 6 private sessions?
Satyanna guides you through the deck — one pillar at a time. Each 90-minute session is a safe space to reflect, dialogue, and build your agreements together. You'll leave each session with clarity, not confusion.

6.⁠ ⁠Is this therapy or couples counseling?
No. C.H.E.R.I. is a conscious co-parenting tool — not therapy. It's a proactive, intentional process for people who want to build something beautiful. That said, it pairs beautifully alongside therapy if you're already doing that work.

7.⁠ ⁠Can same-sex couples or non-traditional families use this?
Absolutely. C.H.E.R.I. is for any two people who want to raise a child together with intention and alignment — regardless of gender, orientation, or family structure.

8.⁠ ⁠What if English isn't my first language?
Satyanna is fluent in both French and English. Sessions can be held in either language.

9.⁠ ⁠I live far away — is this available online?
Yes. All 6 sessions take place via Zoom. The deck is shipped to you wherever you are.

10.⁠ ⁠Is there a payment plan?
Yes — you can pay in 3 installments of $400.

 

11.⁠ ⁠What if I'm already pregnant?
It's not too late. The most important conversations don't need to happen before conception — they need to happen before the patterns set in. Pregnancy is actually a powerful window for this work. You're both focused on the future, emotions are open, and the motivation is right there, growing inside you. Don't wait until the baby arrives and exhaustion takes over. Now is the time.

12.⁠ ⁠What if we already have kids?
It's never too late to realign. Many couples realize after their first child that they never had these conversations — and it shows. C.H.E.R.I. can help you revisit what was never discussed, repair what was assumed, and create conscious agreements moving forward. Your children will feel the shift. They always do.
