Join us for an empowering talk with Maria Riegger, corporate attorney, author, and parenting coach. When Maria became a parent, she was determined to teach her child the strong boundaries that she herself was not allowed to develop. Maria shares an important, and surprising, lesson from her trauma-informed parenting journey about how parents can best help teens develop healthy boundaries to better prepare them for adulthood. Through humorous family stories and powerful examples of negative childhood conditioning that lead to poor adult boundaries, Maria shows parents how to teach teens to independently make better decisions for their own health and wellbeing.
Maria Riegger is a corporate and banking attorney based in Washington, DC. She is a best-selling author, speaker, and trauma-informed parenting expert.

Maria’s rocky childhood became the impetus for her self-improvement. She was then raised by a single narcissistic parent. Maria learned to be a better parent, working on herself rather than controlling her child. She found the key to a healthy parent-child relationship centers on more laughs, positive connections, and less dictating and criticizing.

In helping adults reparent themselves, Maria discovered a great deal of crossover with themes of procrastination, people pleasing, and defensiveness, which held individuals back from achieving success.

Maria draws on her legal and corporate background and trauma-informed knowledge to speak on optimizing productivity, encouraging self-championing, defeating procrastination, and eliminating defensive behaviors to help professionals improve their parenting and achieve their goals. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
