About SageDash

Why I built SageDash

I still remember pacing outside my son’s bedroom door, heart pounding, trying to find the right words. He’d had a rough day at school and had shut everyone out. In that moment I would have given anything for someone who truly understood both of us — someone who could hand me the exact words that would lighten him up.

If you’ve ever stood in that same hallway, you’re not alone.

Parenting teens is the hardest, most important thing most of us will ever do. We love fiercely, we second-guess constantly, and sometimes we only know years later whether we got it right. Wouldn’t it be easier if we had a wise, calm expert who actually knew our family — someone who could coach us in the moment, in our own voice, in a way that lands with our teens?

That’s why I built SageDash, a space where Sage can help you, me and other parents out there who are searching for the same guidance.

Sage is your personal parenting coach — an AI-trained parenting expert with decades of adolescent knowledge and tens of thousands of real-life stories that worked. Answer a few quick questions about you and your teen, and Sage begins learning your family’s tone and needs.

Every Core and Soul response is written in your voice, shaped by your family’s profiles, and lands gently — whether it’s a short opener or a longer conversation.

My hope is that Sage becomes the quiet ally who helps you turn everyday, tense, and exciting moments into connection — one conversation, one dash, one stronger bond at a time.
