Hi,
I’m Sami, mum, coach, and your calm in the chaos.
I’ve walked through the storm. As a mum supporting a young adult with emotional dysregulation, I know what it feels like to be scared, stuck, and utterly exhausted. But I also know what it’s like to find clarity, hope, and support when everything feels too much.
Chaos to Calm was born from my lived experience and from the fierce love I have for my daughter. It's here to help you navigate the emotional whirlwind of supporting your child, and to care for yourself along the way. I’ve walked through the storm...
If you're navigating the chaos of parenting a young adult with Borderline Personality Disorder (Emotionally Unstable Personality Disorder) or any emotional dysregulation, you're in the right place.
Whether you're desperate for answers, craving community, or simply need someone who gets it, you don’t have to do this alone anymore.
This space was built for you.

Resources

It’s not just about finding calm in the moment, but building long-term emotional resilience too. You’ll find bite-sized knowledge on things like DBT skills, self-soothing techniques, and mindset shifts – with more being added regularly. Think of it as your growing library of calm, clarity, and confidence.

FAQs: Your Calm, Your Way
Are you a psychologist or a therapist?
No, I’m a mum who’s walked this path. What I offer is practical support, lived experience, and gentle guidance. This isn’t therapy, it’s everyday tools, emotional reassurance, and a community that gets it.
Do I have to join a group or talk to anyone?
Not at all. Many of my resources are self-guided. You can explore at your own pace, privately. When you’re ready for connection, the Facebook community is there, but only when you want to dip in.
Is this just for mums of kids with BPD?
Not only. While my heart lies with supporting parents of young adults navigating emotional dysregulation or BPD, the tools I offer grounding, emotional regulation, gentle resets are helpful for anyone feeling overwhelmed.
What is the Calm Hub?
The Calm Hub is your go-to online space filled with free tools, articles, calming techniques, and inspiration. Think of it like a virtual hug when life gets a bit too much.
